PepeCZ 5 Posted January 5 Report Share Posted January 5 Guys good feature for future will be if we can add 2FA into Enpass for Microsoft Accounts. Now is this last one my account where I must using Microsoft Autenticator, because this is my last one 2FA which Enpass not support. Ps, two years back I used for 2FA only Microsoft Autenticator with cloud save. But as Enpass released this feature directly into Enpass so I start migrate and now I miss this last one. So I hold Enpass team fingers for some solution (Microsoft Account with 2FA + Enpass). Link to post Share on other sites
PepeCZ 5 Posted January 5 Author Report Share Posted January 5 Because If I open Microsoft Autenticator for Microsoft 2FA, so here is right 4 NUMBERS + 4 NUMBERS But when I added Microsoft 2FA into Enpass, so in this app are only 3 NUMBERS + 3 NUMBERS Link to post Share on other sites

brunovieira97 1 Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 I don't understand this feature request. Microsoft accounts are compatible with 6-digit TOTPs that Enpass generates. I use it for all my Microsoft accounts (personal, work, school). If Microsoft Authenticator generates another pattern for TOTPs (such as aforementioned 8-digit), that's a completely different question: it's a Microsoft app that uses a specific standard. I suggest @PepeCZ to simply disable 2FA on the MS Account and set it up using the option for a generic app (typically they relate this to a Google Authenticator icon), it's all compatible.

PepeCZ 5 Posted February 14 Author Report Share Posted February 14 @brunovieira97 Yes, Microsoft account is compatible with 6digit, but why not use 8digit in enpass app, for example same as in Microsoft Autenticator. I mean if exist any method, how improve application Enpass in this, for use 8digit for Microsoft account, so I am definitely in favor of this improvement. Link to post Share on other sites
brunovieira97 1 Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 @PepeCZ as I said in my previous comment, I believe that would not be possible to achieve. You see, TOTPs (the numeric codes) follow a standard that allows a 6-digit or 8-digit number to be generated. When you go to Microsoft's website and set up your 2FA, they give you 2 ways to do so: Use the MS Authenticator app and its proprietary format, generating 8-digit TOTPs Use a generic authenticator app, such as Google's, Enpass' and so on, generating 6-digit TOTPs Going from 6-digit to 8-digit is fairly simple: you would just generate a URI (or QR Code for it) containing digits=8 as a parameter. So Google Authenticator, Enpass, and all of those aforementioned generic apps would give you 8 digits. But Microsoft doesn't do that. I have just edited my MS account on Enpass and confirmed Enpass does support 8-digit TOTPs. But if you compare the 8-digit ones that Microsoft uses with third-party apps to the ones generated in their proprietary app, you will see that they don't match up. Microsoft uses a different algorithm for their proprietary app, and when you log in and give you the TOTP, they will only accept: 6-digit from generic apps (using the standard algorithm) 8-digit from their proprietary app (using their own unique algorithm) If Microsoft gives you a QR for 6-digit on any app that's not their own, you can't use 8-digit.
