Login problems? Please install the authentication App

Two-Factor-Authentication (2FA) is a prerequisite for logging on to the Learning Management System OLAT and all UZH examination environments. Please, ensure that you can log in without any problems.

Please find instructions here: 

https://help.switch.ch/en/eduid/faqs/?lang=en#mfa-about    

Why should I use an authenticator app?

With two-factor authentication, you can receive the security code either via mobile function in the form of a SMS or via an authenticator app in the form of a token. In the future, at UZH, SMS will be replaced by the token solution, as the use of an authenticator app is a secure method and independent of mobile network coverage. The mobile network coverage on the UZH campus is not guaranteed comprehensively.

Procedure:

  1. Log in to https://eduid.ch.
  2. Click on the plus sign or the pencile icon under «Two-Step Login».
  3. Activate «Authenticator App» by clicking on «On».
  4. Scan the QR code with your preferred authenticator app (e.g. Microsoft, Google Android / Google Apple, ...) on your smartphone and enter the six-digit one-time password into the «Code» field.

Instruction in German and additional information about SWITCH edu-ID.

 

Problems setting up the two-factor authentication 2FA? Please contact:
