<h2 id="_managing_multi_factor_authentication">
  Managing multi-factor authentication
</h2>

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is an authentication method that requires the user to provide two or more verification factors to gain access. Marqeta Dashboard requires users to have MFA enabled via SMS or Google’s Time-based One Time Password (TOTP) authenticator.

To reset or manage a user’s MFA options, you must have the **View and Edit** access level for the **User Profiles** privilege.

<h3 id="_resetting_multi_factor_authentication">
  Resetting multi-factor authentication
</h3>

You should reset the user’s MFA when a user:

* Changes their phone number and needs to authenticate using a new phone number using SMS.

* Changes their mobile device and needs to authenticate using a new device with Google authenticator.

* Deletes their Google authenticator code and needs to rescan the QR code using the same device.

If SMS is chosen, resetting MFA clears the phone number and allows a new phone number to be entered for the user. If Google authenticator is chosen, resetting MFA redisplays the QR code.

If the user had SMS MFA enabled and you’ve reset their MFA, the user is prompted to enter a new phone number when they sign in. If the user had Google Authenticator MFA enabled and you’ve reset their MFA, the QR code is displayed again for the user to scan.

To reset a user’s MFA:

<Steps>
  <Step>
    Go to **Control Center > User Profiles**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    From the list of users, select the user’s row.

A user’s MFA option can be switched between SMS and Google Authenticator. Switch a user’s MFA option when the user:

* Is not receiving SMS messages and would like to switch to Google Authenticator.

* Is an international user who doesn’t use a US phone number and has trouble receiving SMS.

* Would like to switch from SMS to Google Authenticator or switch from Google Authenticator to SMS.

To switch a user’s MFA option:

<Steps>
  <Step>
    Go to **Control center > User Profiles**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    From the list of users, select the user’s row.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    At the bottom of the **User Profile** pane, select **Edit User**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    In the **Multi-factor authentication** section, select either **Authentication via Google authentication** or **Authentication via SMS**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Select **Save**.
  </Step>
</Steps>

If the user had Google Authenticator enabled and has switched to SMS, the user will be prompted to enter a phone number when they sign in. If the user had SMS authentication enabled and has switched to Google Authenticator, the QR code will be displayed for the user to scan.

  This section describes how users can access the Marqeta Dashboard using multi-factor authentication.
</Note>

To access the Marqeta Dashboard, go to [app.marqeta.com](https://app.marqeta.com/) in your browser. If your organization has implemented multi-factor authentication (MFA), you are required to confirm your identity using either SMS or email when you log in. For SMS, you will need to enter the six-digit code that you receive on your phone into the login window. For Google Authenticator, you will need to follow the Google Authenticator process.

In some cases, your MFA access may need to be reset—for example, if your device has been lost or stolen. In that case, contact your system administrator to reset your MFA access.

If you want to switch your MFA option, send a request to your system administrator. You will be prompted to register using either the SMS or Google Authenticator procedure described above.

<h2 id="_enabling_single_sign_on_authentication">
  Enabling single sign-on authentication
</h2>

Single sign-on (SSO) is an authentication method that allows users to log in to multiple applications with one set of credentials. SSO reduces security overhead for system administrators by allowing users to delegate authentication to their external Security Assertion Markup Language 2.0 (SAML 2.0) Identity Provider (IdP) and eliminating the need for users to maintain a separate password to log in to Marqeta Dashboard.

When you enable SSO, SSO becomes the exclusive method for your users to log in to Marqeta Dashboard. SSO implementation is based on email domain, so after your email domain is onboarded to SSO, your new and existing users will be automatically provisioned for SSO. You will follow the existing process to [add a user in Marqeta Dashboard](/developer-guides/user-profiles-dashboard/#_adding_users). Your users will then [access Marqeta Dashboard using SSO](/developer-guides/user-profiles-dashboard/#_accessing_the_dashboard_using_sso).

If you are a system administrator and prefer your users use SSO, contact your Marqeta representative. Note that email aliases are not valid for SSO with Marqeta Dashboard. Users who use email aliases to access Marqeta Dashboard will lose access after SSO is enabled, so consult with your Marqeta representative if your organization includes such users.

<h3 id="_setting_up_single_sign_on_authentication">
  Setting up single sign-on authentication
</h3>

To set up SAML 2.0 authentication in Marqeta Dashboard:

<Steps>
  <Step>
    Share the service provider with your Marqeta representative.

    Marqeta will provide you with two URLs, one for SSO and another for audience restriction.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Add the URLs to your IdP system, which will generate an IdP metadata URL.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Share the IdP metadata URL with your Marqeta representative.

    Marqeta will update the service provider record with the IdP metadata URL.

This section describes how users can access the Marqeta Dashboard using single sign-on (SSO) authentication.

<Note>
  **Note**\
  The Marqeta Dashboard does not currently support IdP-initiated login flows. Marqeta Dashboard users who log in with SSO methods cannot use the application link on their IdP dashboard to log in.
</Note>

To access the Marqeta Dashboard, go to [app.marqeta.com](https://app.marqeta.com/) in your browser. If your organization has implemented single sign-on (SSO) authentication, you are required to log in using SSO. You will be redirected from Marqeta Dashboard to your SSO login page to enter your credentials and authenticate. After successfully authenticating, you will be redirected back to Marqeta Dashboard. Note that email aliases are not valid for SSO with Marqeta Dashboard.
