This workflow guides you through setting up TOTP credentials in n8n to generate one-time passcodes from QR codes, mimicking Google Authenticator without external apps.
This n8n workflow provides a complete setup for generating Time-based One-Time Passwords (TOTP) codes used in 2FA systems. It starts by extracting the secret key from a QR code provided by services like OpenAI, Google, or GitHub. Users then create a TOTP credential in n8n using the extracted secret and label, enabling instant code generation upon testing the workflow.
The benefits include eliminating the need for mobile authenticator apps, allowing seamless integration into automated n8n workfl
