How to set up 2-step verification - Voyant Home

Start by logging into the website 

Login with your usual credentials. You will then land on our new Home page. Click on the silhouette to set up MFA.

Select 2-step verification

Before going any further, download an authenticator app to your phone if you don't have one already. Links to some authenticator apps are given in the screen. 

Note: Please be sure that the smart phone you are about to activate for purposes of authentication is a phone that you will invariably have available when logging into the software or our website.

Select Setup 2-Factor Authentication:

Scan the code via the authenticator app. After doing this you will see a code appear. Enter this code in the box below then click Enable

You will then be prompted to enter another code from the authenticator device on the following screen 

You have now successfully set up 2-step verification. 

Now when logging into the website tick 'User two-step authentication' and enter the current code from the authenticator app.

You will need to have your chosen authenticator device with you anytime you need to access the software. However, you can contact Voyant support to have a temporary access code generated for you if you are unable to locate your device. 

Note: You cannot have multiple devices (smart phones) associated with your Voyant account, so once 2-step authentication is activated, you must have your phone available when logging into Voyant, unless you are working temporarily offline.
