Adding 2FA to your workflow

Simplex offers three ways to authenticated with 2FA: Seed, Email, and Text. In the Settings page, you can click + Add Config in the Two-Factor Authentication section.

Seed

You can get this 2FA code from the QR codes that you would put in a Google Auth or Duo app. You should take a screenshot of the QR code, then put it into Google images. You’re looking for the “seed” or “secret” parameter (example below).

Email

We can integrate directly with your existing PCI compliant data store to pull email and password tokens, and decrypt them on our containers through a custom microservice. Contact us on Slack if you need this.

Text

We can spin up Twilio phone numbers for you that we pull 2FA codes from. Contact us on Slack if you need this.

Integrating 2FA configs into your agent

For all of three methods above (Seed/Email/Text), the Simplex agent in the Editor will have access to all the 2FA configs you’ve created, and will select a 2FA code to use programatically, so when you run the workflow in production, the workflow will programatically select the correct 2FA config.
