Generating a Bypass Code
A bypass code is useful as a second verification factor. You can generate bypass codes after you enroll in 2-Step Verification. And then use that bypass code to access your account when, for example, you don't have internet access.
Enable 2-step verification. Users usually enable 2-step verification automatically when they first sign in. However, if your administrator made 2-step verification optional, and you have clicked Skip each time you sign in, you can enable 2-step verification in the My profile console, Security tab. See Activating 2-Step Verification.
Note
If account recovery and MFA have not been enabled by your administrator, you will not see the Security tab. If you have questions about account recovery and MFA for your account, contact your administrator.
If you don't know how to contact your administrator, you can find your administrator's contact information in your original Welcome email.
