Confirm and activate TOTP enrollment
/v1/auth/mfa/totp/activateConfirms the pending factor by verifying the first code, activates it, and returns the single-use recovery codes exactly ONCE. It does NOT elevate the session — the flow parks at the recovery-codes step until they are acknowledged (recovery-ack), so the codes can never be skipped.
- Cookiestring
The request Cookie header; the interactive login / pending-auth session cookie, and the browser marker a sign-in is recognized by, are read from it.
- Originstring
Browser Origin, checked (with Sec-Fetch-Site) as a same-origin/CSRF guard.
- Sec-Fetch-Sitestring
Fetch metadata; only same-origin is trusted (CSRF guard).
- Content-Typestring
Must be application/json — a JSON body cannot be a CORS simple request, closing form-based CSRF.
Request body
A TOTP code for activation, challenge verification, regeneration, or disable.
The one-time code from the authenticator app.
Example"123456"6–16 characters
