# Multi-Factor Authentication
**Note: This feature has not been merged yet, so it is not available.**
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is a security process that requires users to provide two or more verification factors to gain access to a system, application, or account. This adds an extra layer of protection beyond just using a password.
By requiring more than one verification method, MFA helps reduce the risk of unauthorized access, even if someone has obtained your password. Its highly recommended for securing sensitive information stored in your notes.
Warning! OpenID and TOTP cannot be both used at the same time!

## Setup
MFA can only setup on server instance.
### TOTP
1. Start Trilium Notes normally.
2. Go to "Menu" -> "Options" -> "MFA"
3. Click the "Generate TOTP Secret" button
4. Copy the generated secret to your authentication app/extension
5. Set an environment variable "TOTP\_SECRET" as the generated secret. Environment variables can be set with a .env file in the root directory, by defining them in the command line, or with a docker container.
```
# .env in the project root directory
TOTP_ENABLED="true"
TOTP_SECRET="secret"
```
```
# Terminal/CLI
export TOTP_ENABLED="true"
export TOTP_SECRET="secret"
```
```
# Docker
docker run -p 8080:8080 -v ~/trilium-data:/home/node/trilium-data -e TOTP_ENABLED="true" -e TOTP_SECRET="secret" triliumnext/notes:[VERSION]

6. Restart Trilium
7. Go to "Options" -> "MFA"
8. Click the "Generate Recovery Codes" button
9. Save the recovery codes. Recovery codes can be used once in place of the TOTP if you loose access to your authenticator. After a rerecovery code is used, it will show the unix timestamp when it was used in the MFA options tab.
