Authenticator App
An authenticator is a mobile application that generates a time-based one-time passcode used to access your account. Google Authenticator and Microsoft Authenticator are examples or authenticator apps. You can use an authenticator app as a Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) option to protect your Trimble account.
Setting Up an Authenticator App
If you choose to protect your account with an authenticator app, follow these steps:
Download the authenticator app you wish to use.
Go to myprofile.trimble.com and sign in using your Trimble ID.
On your profile page, select Authenticator App. A screen with a QR code will appear.
Open your authenticator app and scan the QR code or select Can’t Scan It? for a code you can enter. The authenticator app will generate a code for your Trimble account.
Enter the code provided by your authenticator app.
Select Submit.
Logging In with an Authenticator App
After setting up an authenticator app as your MFA method, login using the following steps:
Enter your email address and password and select Next.
Trimble will send a request to your authenticator app, generating a time-based one-time passcode.
Enter the passcode and select Submit.
To change your MFA method, open My Profile and navigate to the Multi-Factor Authentication section. For more information, see Adding or Disabling Multi-Factor Authentication.
