Security
Docu Ninja provides several security features to protect your account and documents.
Password management
Change your password
- Go to Account Settings.
- Click Change Password.
- Enter your current password and your new password.
- Click Save.
Forgot your password
- On the login page, click Forgot Password.
- Enter your email address.
- Check your inbox for a password reset link.
- Click the link and set a new password.
Two-factor authentication (2FA)
Two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security to your account by requiring a time-based code from an authenticator app in addition to your password.
Enable 2FA
- Go to Settings > Security (or Settings > Enable Two Factor).
- Scan the QR code with your authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy, etc.).
- Enter the 6-digit code from your authenticator app to confirm.
- 2FA is now enabled for your account.
warning
Save your recovery codes in a safe place. If you lose access to your authenticator app, you'll need these codes to regain access to your account.
Disable 2FA
- Go to Settings > Security.
- Click Disable Two Factor.
- Enter your current 2FA code to confirm.
- 2FA is disabled.
Phone verification
You can verify your phone number for additional account security:
- Go to Account Settings.
- Enter your phone number.
- Click Verify.
- Enter the SMS verification code sent to your phone.
- Your phone number is now verified.
OAuth login
If you signed up with Google or Microsoft, your account is secured through those providers' security mechanisms:
- Google — uses Google's OAuth 2.0 security, including their 2FA if enabled.
- Microsoft — uses Microsoft's authentication, including their MFA if enabled.
API tokens
API tokens are used for programmatic access via the API:
- Tokens are generated per company.
- You can find your API token in Company Settings > API.
- Treat your API token like a password — do not share it publicly.
tip
Rotate your API token periodically by generating a new one and updating any integrations that use the old token.
