2FA with Keepass
2FA with Keepass
To integrate 2FA with keepass perform the following steps
- Enable 2FA in settings, save it . If 2FA installation link button is not visible, refresh page to see it.
- Copy the link and extract the secret key from it. Example: otpauth://totp/Lemmy.world:echo0618secret=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&algorithm=SHA256&issuer=Lemmy.world Here secret key = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
- Go to keepass and setup your TOTP with the secret key and use custom setting to generate the key, with Algorithm = SHA-256, keeping the other settings unchanged

- Save the TOTP changes. Go incognito mode and login.
While it's possible, I believe it's still best to seperate your passwords and 2FA.
Saving both in one place kinda defeats the purpose of 2FA.
