Hi There,
So I switched my phone and MFA for Facebook through OKTA didn't get transferred. Did anyone else face this issue?
Thanks,
Ken

Hello @aof1t (aof1t),
Thank you for posting.
Okta Verify works by binding to your physical phone hardware and the installed software instance. Okta Verify only works on one device for each Okta account. Uninstalling Okta Verify, Changing Phones, Transferring or Restoring your Phone Data, using Mobile Phone Cleaning Apps, or Resetting your Phone are some of the things that may result in the binding being broken between your phone and Okta Verify, and you will need to re-enroll your device in Okta Verify.
To do this, you’ll need to contact your organization's IT department.
In case that you are using an IOS device please check the following link with information:

Otherwise, if you are using an Android device please check the following link:

Hi @User16254393570754125507 (Okta) - Thanks for your reply.
So, that's what I did when I had to reset my MFA for my Ogilvy Account and WPP IT fixed it.
How does it work for Facebook? Do I need to reach out to Facebook IT OR WPP IT can reset it? Let me know.
Thanks,
Ken
Hi @ypl3p (ypl3p) and @aof1t (aof1t) ,
I have faced the same issue as Kenneth... I cant log in on my facebook because it requires my generating code from Okta Verify, which dissapeared when I installed my knew iPhone. Is there some way to reconnect this Okta MFA with Facebook? The issue is that I need a code from Okta to get in to my Facebook MFA settings, but Okta needs to provide me with a code like that..
Any news on the troubleshooting here? It appears that Kenneth and me are not the only ones this happened for.
Regards
Lars
Is there a way we can reset this so we can log back on?
Thanks,
Ken
