Hi Mihai, How to get secret key or where to get that secret key. And one more question, in my organization i have MFA multi factor authentication process for sharepoint. How to automate that as the token is coming to mobile or desktop.

Can you please provide the differences between the three activities? (Google, Microsoft, Okta). Based on the description "as the same algorithm is used to generate the token for all." and in testing that all three return the same Token, what is the purpose for doing so?

Hi, can you please explain what values should be entered for "Secret Key" and "Token"?I am trying to use UiPath to automate a login process which uses Google Authenticator extension on Chrome.

Hi Mihai Pricochi. I got it working man. I had to click the button that says I do not want a notification on the set up page to get a different code and now it works. Thanks man and great activity.

Any chance to support also Onelogin ?

When running the bot using the Microsoft Token activity I keep getting an error. "Get Microsoft Token: Illegal character: 8"Any idea what I might be doing wrong? I entered the Secret Key value that was shown before activating on my device that would be doing the approval. So I figured once it was activated it would work without any issue. Confused as to what is going on. Thanks.

Hi Mihai,Not sure if I can respond directly to your answer you provided me below, but no it never works. But I activated the Secret Key on a different device (via phone), not the activity in this case. Maybe that is my issue? If so, I am not 100% sure how I would activate the Secret Key through UiPath then.I really would like to use this activity, but can't get it to work. The Secret Key is all numeric and I am not using spaces.

Hello Mihai, Works the authentication component with Symantec vip access?: <a href="https://vip.symantec.com/" target="_blank">https://vip.symantec.com/</a>

Hi Mihai, is it work for 2 step authentiation for gmail?

I am still facing the issues for two-factor authentication.

I am using microsoft authenticator for two factor authentication. I am approving through app. I can change this method to SMS but not email... These sms or app are the two default options. 

For the secret key you are asking to generate throgh the microsoft sign in process.. we dont get can't see bar code.. can't use mobile all time. it cannot generate secret key and there is no documentation regarding the two factor authentication in uipath forum or anywhere.. How can we explore or complete the solution? Please help us out.

Please let me know what values we need to give in SecretKey field in GetOkta Token activity.

While enabling MFA for Microsoft Authenticator, In the configure mobile app page, it shows CODE and URL under barcode. Here CODE is the secret key? and its full of numeric values.

As shown in this page link ->  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/user-help/user-help-auth-app-add-account-manual#:~:text=Open%20the%20Microsoft%20Authenticator%20app,1%2C%20and%20then%20select%20Finish.

The client is using Microsoft MFA process for connecting to their network and We need to bypass the MFA using a Static Token. 

As per your document "How to generate Secret Key.docx" it says we can get a static secret key and use for authentication.

Would that work always or should we get the static key everytime we need to connect?

Which Uipath version should be preferred? As I am having 2019.10.3 and I am not able to find this package over there. Can you please help?

how can I use this token with GSuite Activities, in GSuite Scope etc.? Thanks

Is there any plan to create this activity in .NET 6? We try to avoid using the Windows - legacy version since this will be out of support. 

Hello, is there any plan to allow for secureString input for the secret Key? Would increase the security of the tool

Hi, I downloaded the library and uploaded it to the orchestrator, then the library doesn't show up in uipath studio to use it. I have tried to carry out this same operation from the local route and the same thing happens. do you know why it doesn't show it?

Attestation that this works with Microsoft! - Pretty great, handy, dandy, custom activity.


Works perfectly! - I used this for an application that uses Google Authenticate, and it logs in perfectly every time. Great job!


It functions to generate a TOTP no problem! I used it to make logging into Saleforce a little more secure and easier to access compared to OTP via email. 

My only concern initially given that all three activities use the same algorithm is there is no reason to have three different activities.

Would love to see this added to the Open Source activities.

Using it with OKTA tokens.. works seemlessly. Thanks!!!

Works beautifully once you figured out how to generate a secret key for Microsoft "Work" accounts (documentation isn't up-to-date on this). See https://forum.uipath.com/t/multi-factor-authentication-use-of-uipathteam-twostepauthentication-activities/161930/5 for a quick manual on how to obtain a secret key.

The library does not work. You can review plis.
