Reset User's MFA Device

Customers who opt to have Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) setup in their Limio environment will have users who need to change their MFA device on occasion.

There are 3 key steps that are needed to do this:

Copy the target user's details
Remove the target user
Re-create the target user

Note: These steps will need to be carried out by a user who isn't getting their MFA device reset.

Deleting the target User

Follow these steps to delete the user in the system:

Click on your avatar in the top-right corner of the screen
From the drop-down navigation menu, select Users
Find the target user in the users list
Click "Edit" to view the user's details and note them down
Go back to the users list and click the "Delete" button next to the target user

Re-Create the User

The MFA QR code is only available on the first login attempt, so re-creating the user here will allow them to setup a new device with their previous email and username. To do this, follow these steps:

Click on your avatar in the top-right corner of the screen
From the drop-down navigation menu, select Users
From the left-hand navigation menu, click Create User
Fill in all required fields with the target user's information that was collected before deletion
A temporary password will be sent to the target user's registered email address
On the target user's first login, a QR code will appear for the user to register their MFA device
