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" 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.
