MFA is automatically required as part of your sign in process. After entering your email and password when signing in, you will be asked to choose out of using your mobile phone number (text or phone call) or the Microsoft Authenticator app to verify your identity.
If you choose to be sent a text or use the app, you will receive a 6-digit code which you need to enter into the required textbox. Once you’ve done this, press ‘Verify code’ to be signed in. For phone calls, you will be signed in automatically when you answer your phone and press their # key.
If you are registering or activating your account for the first time, you will also have to use your email address to verify your identity before choosing out of your phone number and the Authenticator app to verify your identity. You will be given instructions on your screen about how to do this.
