Activating 2-Step Authentication helps keep your ManageXR organization and devices secure. ManageXR enables you to enforce 2-Step Authentication across your organization and use an authenticator app to protect your account.

Set Up 2-Step Authentication

To turn on 2-Step Authentication for your account, you must download and install an authenticator app of your choice.

  1. Click Account from the drop-down menu

  2. Toggle 2-Step Authentication ON

  3. Enter your password to re-authenticate

  4. Use your authenticator app to scan the QR code

    1. If you’re unable to scan the QR code, click “Can’t scan the QR code?” to receive a setup key for your authenticator app

  5. Enter the name of your authenticator app, the code generated by your device, and click Verify

Success! You've set up 2-Step Authentication. For all of your future sign-ins, you will be asked to enter a code generated by your authenticator app.

Require 2-Step Authentication for All Users

You must have Admin (User and Organization) privileges in order to enforce 2-Step Authentication across your organization. Before requiring all users in your organization to use 2-Step Authentication, you must set up 2-Step Authentication on your own account by following the instructions above.


To require 2-Step Authentication for all the users on your organization, follow the instructions below.

  1. Go to Organization > Security

  2. Toggle Require 2-Step Authentication for your organization ON

  3. Confirm with the Require for Everyone button

All current and future users will be required to activate 2-Step Authentication in order to access your organization. If you use multiple ManageXR organizations, you will need to set this requirement in each organization separately. You may turn it off at any time to allow users without 2-Step Authentication setup to access the organization.

Monitor Compliance

When you require 2-Step Authentication for all users on your organization, you can monitor compliance from the Organization Settings > Users page. The security shield indicates whether a user has enrolled in 2-Step Authentication.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does 2-Step Authentication work with SSO?

The 2-Step Authentication provided by ManageXR works for users who either use (a) a standard email/password, (b) Google, or (c) Microsoft to log in. It does not support custom SSO at this time. We recommend requiring 2-Step authentication through your SSO provider.
