Automate Two-Factor Authentication from a Trusted Location withSalesforce Authenticator (Version 2 or Later)
- Respond to a notification from Salesforce Authenticator by opening the app on your mobile device.The app displays details of your account activity, including your username, the service you’re trying to access (such as Salesforce), and information about the device used for the activity. If location services are enabled and available, the app shows your current location. Owing to the nature of geolocation technology, the accuracy of geolocation fields (for example, street address, country, city) can vary.
- Check the details.
- If you recognize the details, and you’re in a location you trust, like your office or home, switch on Always verify from here.
- Tap Approve.In Salesforce, you’re logged in or granted access to the desired resource. The next time you take the same action from the same location, the Salesforce Authenticator app automatically verifies the activity for you. You need your mobile device with you, but you don’t have to respond to an app notification.
