TDM4 - How to Set Up Multi-Factor Authentication (2FA)
Introduction
TDM Digital Signage offers the possibility to configure multi-factor authentication based on 2FA. Once this is enabled, all users must enter their password and the security code generated by Google Authenticator. This application can be downloaded on your mobile phone (Android/iOS).
Important: Once this option is enabled, all users must log in using the multi-factor authentication method. This means that every user needs to install and configure the Google Authenticator app on their phone.
Requirements
If you want to set up multi-factor authentication (2FA), you need to meet the following requirements:
-
Have administrator access to the TDM Designer
-
All users must have Google Authenticator installed

On this page, you have the ability to change the authentication workflow from “Use default login authentication” to “Use Google authentication to login (2FA).”
Once “Use Google authentication to login (2FA)” is selected, all users will be prompted to set up Google Authenticator when logging in for the first time after enabling the option.
You have now successfully configured multi-factor authentication. Please note that all users will need to use this new authentication method after it has been enabled.
