Don't see an OTP field? Your account is using Simple Authentication — skip the OTP step and click Login directly. For stronger account security, we recommend enabling OTP Authentication. Reach out to your administrator to get it set up.

Step 5

Access granted

You'll be redirected to your dashboard upon successful login.
