Using a recovery code to log in

If you have two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled but can't receive a verification code, you can use a recovery code. The recovery codes were generated when you set up 2FA.

You must still enter a username and password to complete the first step in authentication before you can use a recovery code. If you can't remember your password, see Managing your password.

You can use each recovery code only once.
