The 2-Step Verification feature allows your clinic to require two forms of authentication for your Professional users accessing your Population Tracker. This adds another layer of security for your clinic and your patient data. Once enabled for an account, only the Professional-Admin user may disable or enable 2-Step Verification for the account's Professional users.
If 2-Step Verification is required for your clinic, Professional-Admin users may only choose to reset the preferred 2-Step Verification method.
- Setting up your 2-Step Verification
- Resetting your 2-Step Verification (Professionals & Professional-Admins)
- Managing 2-Step Verification (Professional-Admins only)

Setting up your 2-Step Verification
As a Professional or Professional-Admin user, the first time you login to your Glooko account, you will be prompted to configure your preferred 2-Step Verification method if required by your clinic. There are two options for receiving your one-time passcode you may select from:
- Receive passcode via Glooko account email
- Receive passcode via authenticator app
To configure your 2-step verification for the first time:
- Login or Activate your Glooko account
- After entering your password, you will be prompted to select App Authentication or Email Authentication
- App Authentication will require you to use an authentication app, such as Google Authenticator, or similar, to receive your passcode
- Email Authentication will mean your passcode will be delivered via email to your Glooko account email
- If you select App Authentication:
- The next screen will present you a QR code and a Secret Key
- Either scan the QR code from your authentication app or enter the Secret Key to complete the setup
- Once configured, enter the 6-digit passcode provided by the app to login to your Glooko account
- If you select Email Authentication:
- Glooko will generate an email to your Glooko account email address

You will only need to configure your verification method once, during your initial login. If you decide to change your preferred method, you may do so by following the instructions below.
