Two-step sign-in required

two_step_required

This account requires two-step sign-in. Sign in again with your authenticator app or passkey.

What this means​

The account requires two-step sign-in, and this sign-in didn't use an authenticator app or a passkey.

How to fix it​

Sign in again and use your authenticator app or passkey. If you haven't set one up, you'll be asked to.

Retry behavior​

After signing in again with an app or a passkey, the same request succeeds.

How it appears in the response​
