2FA and SSO (Google Workspace)
Hey CF team 👋
I need your help on configuring 2FA and SSO.
Currently I created a user profile using Google SSO authentication. However on my current company account I need to enable 2FA for regulations and compliance. But based on your doc we can't add 2FA is our profile has been created with SSO. Of course I tried but the dashboard is asking a password but this password is unknown from CF of course because I'm using SSO.
So I decided I will delete my user profile and create a new one using email + pwd classic auth to then enable 2FA correctly because for sure CF will know my password.
But ... when I'm trying to delete my user profile CF is asking me for a password 🤯 and of course even if I enter my Google password CF is telling me the password incorrect.
Can someone help me please?
Thanks 🙏🏻

What you'd want to do is click "Forgot password" on the login page, and use the code/link it sends to set a password for your account. You can then use that password to delete the account, or maybe 2FA will work once it's added, I don't know so I'd try it and see Have you actually tried setting up 2FA though? I tested on my Google login account and it worked perfectly fine. I believe the doc is referring to the custom SSO Enterprise feature, and not to the "Sign in with Google" option on the login page which is likely what you are referring to.

Have you actually tried setting up 2FA though? I tested on my Google login account and it worked perfectly fine.Yes it do not works on my side. It's the purpose of my message 😅
Could you send a screenshot showing that? Or just try reset password to get a password setup and see if that works

I do not think it will work to reset my password because I'm using Google Login. It do not seems logic to me 😅
While using Google SSO first time, it sets up a password which we don't know of.
Yes - you just need to reset password. Google Login will also work and you will be able to set 2FA as well. Since the password you change will be added to Cloudflare db.
It does work, give it a shot
It sets a password in addition to the Google login, you can login either with the password or with Google
And you can then use that password to setup 2FA or delete the account or whatever other option requires it
Okay let's try it 👍
Surprising but it works like a charm 🤩
Thank you so much @Erisa @Amar @Leo 🙏🏻
