Two-factor authentication (2FA)

RTK Cloud sign-in is SSO-only — it's handled by your identity provider (Google, GitHub, Microsoft, or your company's SSO). Two-factor authentication is therefore configured and enforced there, not in RTK. When your provider requires a second factor, RTK honors it at sign-in.

Turning on 2FA

Enable two-factor (or passkeys / hardware keys) in your provider's security settings:

  • Googlemyaccount.google.com → Security → 2-Step Verification
  • GitHub — Settings → Password and authentication → Two-factor authentication
  • Microsoftaccount.microsoft.com → Security → Advanced security options
  • Company SSO (Okta, Entra…) — managed by your IT administrator, usually enforced org-wide

Once it's on with your provider, that second factor is required every time you sign in to RTK Cloud.

Losing access

Recover your second factor through your identity provider's account-recovery process — RTK has no separate 2FA to reset. If you still can't sign in, ask an admin to confirm your account is active and that your provider and email domain are still allowed (see Sign in).
