Posted on by ARTECH

Hello, I have a question about configuring the Two-Factor authentication in PowerApps Portal. I have already created a new contact for my Portal.

I Enable "Two-factor authentication" for contact and try to logged-in. It is showing the screen for which is asking for the Security Code which should be emailed to me at the specified email id in my contact record. Also its showing the msg to "Check your email for the security code." But unfortunately I don't get any email regarding the Security Code. So I am unable to log-in as a new contact now.

Also please note that when I logged-in as a new contact (user) to the portal and on profile page when I click on "Change and Confirm Email" button I am not getting any email to my registered email id inbox i.e. any way I am not getting any type of email.

NOTE: I am trying all above stuff on my trial account.

So any assistance (with some sample) for above requirement will be highly appreciated.

Thanks, AR

Hi @AR19 ,

'Send Two Factor code' and 'Send Confirmation Email' are all implemented by workflow.
If you edit the workflow and enter the Send Email property view as follows,
you can see that the issue is that the email is being sent from the Owner of the Contact. The issue here is that by default when a user registers from the portal, this owner will be the SYSTEM account deployed by the portal template we chose to deploy. This account won't have an active email address or mailbox in Dynamics and therefore the workflow will fail. To fix this, all we need to do is select a more appropriate account.
For more information, please check this blog:https://community.dynamics.com/365/b/daringdynamics/posts/dynamics-365-portal-confirm-email-error
Hope this helps.

Hello there,

I need help in enabling the Two Factor authentication for one of our Power Apps Portal. Is there a way we can enforce/auto-enable MFA for all users who register on the portal?

I have read the section on Two-Factor Authentication here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/portals/configure/set-authentication-identity#enable-two-factor-authentication

I created the following two site setting records and set their values to "true" but no luck:
Authentication/Registration/TwoFactorEnabled
Authentication/Registration/RememberBrowserEnabled
Please advise.

Hello,
The solution is to use a workflow that auto enables the 2F Authentication on the user profile upon creation of the contact record.
