When an account has multi-factor authentication enabled, [`user/auth`](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/commons/user.md#post-user-auth) does not return a usable session. It returns `type: "second_factor_required"` and a limited hash, and emails a code to the address the account registered with. These two operations finish that exchange: one verifies the code and returns an ordinary session hash, the other sends the code again. Both require the multi-factor session hash issued part-way through `user/auth`, not an ordinary session hash and not an API key. ## API actions API base path: `/user/auth/code`. Operations that list no errors of their own return only the [general error codes](/docs/navixy-api/general/errors.md#error-codes). *** ## Verify auth code > Complete a multi-factor authentication challenge by submitting the code that was sent to the user.\ > \ > \*\*Requires an MFA session\*\*, which is issued part-way through authentication.

GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://navixy.com/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/commons/user/auth.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
