Reconnect an account

You might need to reconnect an account if it stops working. Follow the steps for your device's operating system to reconnect an account.

Note

End users who already use the Authenticate app and want to add the ability to accept biometric push notifications to use face (iOS) or fingerprint recognition must first reconnect the account for their mobile device.

Note

If end users originally connected the account to their user profile with a QR code, they must log into the site that provided the QR code from their desktop computer.

If end users originally connected the account to their user profile with a URL, they will skip the Reconnect Account screen and see the SecureAuth IdP realm login screen for the original URL. If end users need to connect to a new account, they must register that account by starting with Connect an account to your user profile.
