Passwordless Login with QR Code

Overview

AdminX users and administrators have several available multi-factor authentication options when logging into the AdminX panel, including using a Passwordless Login with QR. This method allows users to experience passwordless login, using the BlockID Mobile Application to authenticate the request with enrolled biometrics, such as Touch ID or Face ID.

First Steps

Users will first need to ensure that they have downloaded the BlockID Mobile App on their phone:

Next, users should follow the setup instructions outlined in the BlockID Mobile Application User Guide to enroll their unique biometric attributes. This allows for a much more secure user experience, using your individual physical characteristics to authenticate.

Logging in to the AdminX Panel Using QR Codes

Logging in with QR Codes is by far the simplest method available to users. To get started, navigate to your AdminX login page.

Open your BlockID Mobile Application and click Scan QR. Scan the QR displayed on the login page using the app.

You will be prompted to approve the login request. Click the green check mark to continue.

Here you will need to use your enrolled biometrics - either a fingerprint scan with Touch ID or a facial scan with Face ID - to continue logging in.

That's it! After authentication with your enrolled biometrics, you will be redirected to your user dashboard.

QR Code Refresh

The displayed QR code will automatically refresh and renew after 60 seconds. After refreshing five times (5 minutes total), the QR code will deactivate, and a refresh button will appear.

Click Refresh to generate a new QR code. Scan the new QR code to continue logging in.

tip

Once the refresh button is displayed, the QR code will no longer automatically renew, and the button must be clicked to generate a fresh QR code

Link a Device

If this is your first time logging into your account with QR Codes by scanning a QR code, you will need to first link the account in the BlockID Mobile Application.

From the main login page, click the Request an invite link located beneath the QR code.

From the Request an invite page, enter the email address for your account. Where it reads Where should we send the invite? leave the option as Primary Email.

Click Send Invite

Next, on your mobile device open the email you just received. Follow the instructions in the email and use the provided link to complete the registration.

You should see a message indicating that the account has been added.

At this point, your device is now linked, and you can return to your AdminX login page and continue with the login.
