OTP Recovery Guide (Lost OTP Device)

If you lose access to your OTP device, follow these steps to recover your account and configure a new OTP method.

  1. On the Keycloak login page, click Forgot password / OTP.
  2. Enter your username. You should receive a recovery email in your inbox.
  3. Open the email and follow the recovery link.
  4. Scan the new QR code with your authenticator app.
  5. Enter the generated OTP code and a device name.
    • The device name is mandatory.
  6. Change your password when prompted.
    • This is required for security reasons.
  7. Log in again as usual.
    • On the OTP selection page, you will see two devices.
    • Select the device with the name you just entered.
    • The old one will usually appear as unnamed (if no name was set previously).

Recommended Cleanup

After logging in, go to:

Then delete the previous OTP device. If it had no custom name, it may appear as otp.
