The Browser Extension Now Auto-Fills Your MFA Codes Too

Update

Coming in IT Portal 4.6.27 · Q3 2026

The last manual step in login, gone

The IT Portal browser extension has long filled in usernames and passwords for you. But when a site then asked for a 2FA code, you were on your own — open the extension, copy the one-time code, switch back, paste it in, hope it didn't expire. Every login, every time.

That step is now automatic. The Chrome and Firefox extension now auto-fills MFA/2FA codes the same way it fills usernames and passwords.

How it works

  1. Fill your username and password with the extension, exactly as you do today.
  2. The site sends you to its verification-code page.
  3. The extension shows a fill icon on the one-time-code field.
  4. Click it, and the same familiar credential popup appears — credentials with 2FA set up are marked with a "2FA" badge.
  5. Pick the credential, and the current code is filled in for you automatically.

Same popup, same look and feel as username and password — there's no new interface to learn.

Works almost everywhere

The extension recognizes one-time-code fields on virtually any site, including:

IT Portal's own authenticator page · Microsoft / Office 365 · Okta · AWS · GitHub · Salesforce · and any site using standard 6-digit verification or security codes.

It's smart about it, too. Even when a site doesn't clearly label its code field, the extension can recognize it from what's on the page — cues like "Google Authenticator" or "Enter verification code" — so it still knows where the code belongs.

Before and after

  • Before: copy the code from the extension popup, then paste it into the field.
  • After: click the fill icon, pick the credential, done.

Availability

MFA code auto-fill ships with IT Portal 4.6.27, scheduled for Q3 2026.
