Hey everyone!

I activated a two factor auth app and it works good.  
But whenever I want to access my files via webdav, it doesnt ask me for a two factor code or something and I cannot login and access my files.

Any idea? Any fix?

Thanks

Hi,

in you account settings you can create “App passwords” … I think this is the way …
