Grab this line and copy it in an ampty editor sheet, we’ll need this information later. For the example above, HA user with ID 9xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx2 has TOTP secret BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOY. Under users, every Home Assistant user ID that has 2FA activated has it’s TOTP secret (qutoes aren’t part of the secret). “9xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx2”: “BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOY” In this folder you’ll find a file called ‘auth_module.totp’, that’s where all information for TOTP is stored.
You’ll maybe have to change the file explorer’s settings to make hidden elements visible, I’m confident you will find how to do this if necessary. In Home Assistant config folder (where your configuration.yaml lays) is a hidden folder called ‘.storage’. You’ve been warned but chill, it’s not magical, if I can do it, you can. If you mess up the code within this environment and can’t get into Home Assistant later I won’t be responsible. The really sensitive part of TOTPs is the key that generates the 6 digits upon time iteration.īefore I show you where you can grab this key be alerted: You’re messing with an authentication unit. Since they change very often they aren’t as sensitive as passwords. Let’s quickly recap: TOTPs are 30 seconds valid one time passwords. It looks like Bitwarden offers similar function as well, but since I’m not using Bitwarden, maybe somebody else can dive into this world later. Tired of always having to grab my phone, open an additional app and manually enter 6 digits when login in to Home Assistant with activated 2FA I dug deeper into TOTP and have found the elegant way to “one click does it all” with the free and open-source password manager keepassXC.
