Get 2FA recovery codes

Hello,

I enabled 2FA in tools->user settings for admin account.
I have no problem to connect and receive the 2FA code but I never had any recovery codes.

The first time I enabled 2FA, the admin e-mail was not set correctly so after I set it and tested to use 2FA right, I tried to disable, click save, enable 2FA again then click save but no recovery code by mail or displayed.

How to obtain 2FA recovery codes in the case I would have issue to receive the mail?

 

It looks like admin user has not any recovery code in my case:

Code:

MariaDB [dbispconfig]> select otp_recovery from sys_user where username="admin";
+--------------+
| otp_recovery |
+--------------+
| NULL         |
+--------------+
1 row in set (0.000 sec)
MariaDB [dbispconfig]> select `otp_type` from sys_user where username='admin';
+----------+
| otp_type |
+----------+
| email    |
+----------+
1 row in set (0.001 sec)

Or do I miss something again?

 

@Th0m did you have some time to test?

 

Hi, I've got the same issue here: no recovery codes for every user.

Code:

MariaDB [dbispconfig]> select otp_recovery from sys_user;
+--------------+
| otp_recovery |
+--------------+
| NULL         |
| NULL         |
| NULL         |
| NULL         |
| NULL         |
| NULL         |
| NULL         |
| NULL         |
+--------------+
8 rows in set (0,000 sec)

Kind regards

BTW, I can't figure out how to use an app like google authenticator in place of the email. Is it possible?
Kind regards
