Disconnect a User’s One-Time Password Generator App

Besides Salesforce Authenticator, one other mobile authenticator app that generates verification codes (one-time passwords) can be connected to a user’s account at a time. If your user loses access to the app by replacing or losing the mobile device, disconnect the app from your user’s account. The next time your user logs in with two-factor authentication, if no other identity verification method is connected, Salesforce prompts the user to connect a new authenticator app.
Available in: Both Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience
Available in: Essentials, Group, Professional, Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, Developer, and Contact Manager Editions
