If your dashboard service uses 2-Factor Authentication (2FA) you will need to provide Fugo with the secret key that is generated by your Identity Provider in order to display your dashboards on screen.

This guide will walk you through how to set that up if you are using Microsoft as your identity provider.

If you want to log into your dashboard service using ‘Login with Microsoft’ you will need to configure it for Fugo TV Dashboards.

The Microsoft identity platform allows you to sign in to your dashboard service using your Microsoft identity or social account.

In order to set up Fugo TV Dashboards with a Microsoft Account, you'll need the following three things:

The following sections will detail how to set up 2FA in Fugo with Microsoft, depending on how far you've gotten with your authentication app and your secret key:

Great! You can jump ahead to section 5: Configure Microsoft 2FA in Fugo TV Dashboards.

You will need to set up the authenticator app again & get the secret key in the process.

To do that:

2.1 Go to your Microsoft Account and navigate to your Security page

2.2 Click on Advanced Security

2.3 Turn off Two-step verification.

Continue to the next section: I don't have my secret key or the authenticator app to set up to set up the authenticator app again and most importantly, get the secret key.

3.1 Go to your Microsoft Account and navigate to your Security page

3.2 Click on Advanced Security

Now we're going to set up an authenticator app:

3.3 In the Additional Security section, turn on Two-step verification. You will be navigated to a page with the setup instructions. Just click Next to continue.

3.4 On the subsequent page, select An app under Verify my identity with as shown below and click set up a different Authenticator app.

Now we're going to get the secret key:

3.5 You will see a new page with a QR code. This QR code represents your secret key but don't scan the code just yet. Instead, click I can't scan the barcode and you should see the actual secret key that you then need. Store it in a safe place and then enter it into your Fugo TV Dashboard.

Now you are ready to set up your authenticator app by scanning the QR code. You can bring the QR code up again by clicking on I'll scan a bar code instead. Or you can manually enter the Secret Key into the app.

To complete the set up you will need to enter the code generated by the authenticator app back into the setup page as shown below:

Now we're ready to complete the authentication app setup:

3.6 You can complete the setup by pressing Next. When finished, you will be navigated back to your security account - where you should see the confirmation that Two-step verification is turned on and Enter a code from an authenticator app is Up to date.

You need to make sure that the only verification methods enabled on your account are:

Otherwise, Fugo TV Recorder might struggle to repeat the recorder steps as your journey becomes unpredictable.

Finally, disable email alerts in the account, since you won't want to be receiving notifications every time Fugo logs in and snapshots your dashboard.

When using your Microsoft account, configured with 2FA, to access your dashboard from the Fugo TV Recorder, you will be asked to enter your email address and maybe asked for the code generated by your authentication app that we set up in previous steps.

Once you select & capture your dashboard, you will be prompted with a pop up asking you to enter the secret key that we generated from in the previous sections.

From there, you should be good to go!
