How to configure your account with Yubikey

Setup YubiKey

To setup YubiKey as multi-factor authentication method, navigate to the multi-factor authentication user settings page: Avatar > Manage Account > Multi Factor Authentication. Select the provider "YubiKey OTP" to continue.

The next step will require you to plug your YubiKey and touch it to release a Yubico OTP. Then click on "Validate" to ensure it functions correctly and complete the setup.
