    Depending on your email provider, it may take a few minutes for the email to arrive. Please be sure to check your spam folder. If the email has not arrived within a few minutes, please try again.

  4. Copy the security code from your email.
  5. On the Set up 2-Factor Authentication popup screen in the dashboard, enter the security code.
