Workflow Overview
For n8n, this automated workflow generates TOTP codes on demand, enhancing security by providing time-based one-time passwords. Triggered manually, it simplifies the process of accessing secure systems, ensuring quick and reliable authentication.
This workflow is ideal for:
- Developers looking to implement TOTP (Time-based One-Time Password) for secure authentication in their applications.
- IT Administrators who need to set up two-factor authentication for internal tools and services.
- Security Enthusiasts interested in enhancing security measures for personal projects or small businesses.
- Technical Users who are familiar with n8n and want to automate the generation of TOTP codes.
This workflow addresses the need for generating TOTP codes, which are essential for two-factor authentication (2FA). By automating the process, users can effortlessly obtain secure codes without manual entry, reducing the risk of human error and increasing overall security for sensitive applications.
- Manual Trigger: The workflow starts when the user clicks the ‘Test workflow’ button. This initiates the process.
- TOTP Node: The TOTP node generates a time-based one-time password using the specified credentials. This ensures that the code is valid for a limited time, enhancing security.
- Output: The generated TOTP code can be used for authentication purposes, allowing users to log in securely to their accounts or applications.
