If an error or other issue occurs

If an error or other issue occurs, it may be due to one of the following reasons.

You cannot get a verification code for Two-Factor Authentication

If you can access Kintone from a web browser on your mobile device or PC, open the "Login Name & Password" screen from the "Account Settings" screen, and then disable Two-Factor Authentication. After doing so, re-enable Two-Factor Authentication and try getting a verification code again.
If you cannot access Kintone from any device, you need to ask an administrator to disable Two-Factor Authentication.
