Automatic MFA Re-Enrollment After Recovery Code Login

Overview

This article clarifies whether it is possible to automatically trigger the re-enrollment of Time-based One-Time Password (TOTP) factors for Multifactor Authentication (MFA) when a user logs in using a recovery code.

Applies To

  • Auth0

  • Multifactor Authentication (MFA)

Solution

  • This flow is not supported. Removing an MFA factor without the user specifically stating they want to remove the MFA is not recommended.

  • Grant users the ability to remove and add MFA factors by creating a custom interface for the application that utilizes the MFA API to add and remove MFA enrollments. More information about the MFA API can be found here: Auth0 MFA API
