    Hi,
    I would like to know whether there is any possibility if a user logs in and 2FA is highly recommended, can the user has a provision to scan and create 2FA for admins?
    ie without logging in can a user create 2FA by scanning?

    Hello, @cyriacathickal15

    Can you please clarify?

    When a user logs in, they can set up 2FA by going to the Login Security area of the site. This can only be done if you have 2FA set to optional or required for that user’s role.

    If 2FA is set to Required for their role, they can log in and set it up for themselves, but only if the Grace Period is currently active (Login Security > Settings). If 2FA is set to required for the user role and the grace period is not enabled, then the user would not be able to log in if 2FA is not already set up for them.

    In any event, the user would need to be logged in to setup 2FA.

    Thanks,
    Scott
