Where to Find Your Secret Key : When setting up two-factor authentication on most websites, you'll be shown a QR code along with a text-based secret key. This secret key is what you'll enter into the one-time code field in Enpass.

Once configured, Enpass will automatically generate new codes every 30 seconds. You can quickly copy these codes when logging into your accounts, making two-factor authentication seamless and secure.
