Make login work with 2FA

[murchu27]

If I enable 2FA for my user on Kanboard, I can't login to Khanos. I get the error in the below screenshot. If I disable 2FA, the error doesn't show, and I login successfully.

I'm using:
Kanboard v1.2.20
Khanos v1.1.2 (Pre-release)

Hello! 2FA is not supported in Khanos for now. It is planned as a feature for a future release.

A side note for anyone coming across this while this is still in the pipeline.

If you would like to use 2FA on the Kanboard web client, and are okay going without this extra layer of security when using Khanos, you can login to Khanos using a personal API access token, instead of a password.

You can generate a personal API access token on the Kanboard web client by going to "Users management", choosing your user, and choosing "API" in the left menu.

Now, if you have 2FA enabled, or if you enable it later, you can still login to Khanos using this token instead of your password.

Hey @murchu27 this is a great workaround. Thank you for the info!

Hello @murchu27 aparently this is the only way for authenticating when having 2FA since Kanboard 1.2.8. I can find any solution with the current Kanboard API other than this. I'll close this issue for now until I get a better solution from the API
