Setting Up 2 Factor Authentication without a Smart Phone

If your Client has set up the Vitality Platform to need 2 Factor Authentication, you will need to install the Google Authenticator App. This APP can be installed on your Smart Phone. If you do not have a Smart Phone, then you will need to install this extension on your computer

Once it is installed, you can use this extension instead of the Smart Phone application.

Step 4. Use the Authenticator Extension to get a 6 Digit Code

Click again on the Chrome Extension icon on your Chrome window on the right side of the address bar

It will open up the Extensions section and display this.
