Understanding One-Time Codes

Asaph uses passwordless authentication through one-time codes. When you want to log in, we send you a code via email. Enter it in Asaph, and you're in. The code expires after 15 minutes for security.

One-time codes are temporary numeric codes sent to your email address. Each code:

Think of them as temporary passwords that arrive in your inbox.

The entire process takes less than 30 seconds.

You'll never forget your Asaph password because there isn't one. No password manager needed.

Hackers can't steal a password that doesn't exist. Your email account is your authentication.

Every code expires after 15 minutes. Old codes become useless, preventing unauthorized access.

Each code works only once. Even if someone sees your code, it won't work after you've used it.

Your email account's security (password, two-factor authentication) protects your Asaph account.

One-time codes expire 15 minutes after being sent. This prevents:

If you try to use an expired code, you'll see a message saying the code is no longer valid. Just request a new one.

This timeframe balances security with convenience. It's long enough to check your email but short enough to prevent misuse.

You can request as many codes as you want. Each new request:

Request codes from your phone, tablet, or computer. The code you receive works on any device where you're logging into Asaph.

Request a code on your phone but want to use your desktop? Enter the same code on your desktop—it works on any device until it's used once.

Once you enter a code and log in:

Each device maintains its own login session. Logging in on your phone doesn't log you out of your desktop.

Check your spam or junk folder first. The email arrives within seconds. If it's not there, request a new code.

No. Each code works only once. After you use it, request a new code for your next login.

They would need access to your email inbox. If you're concerned, log out of Asaph and change your email password immediately.

No. You need internet connectivity to receive the email and log into Asaph after entering the code.

Don't bother. It expires after 15 minutes and only works once. Always request a fresh code when you need to log in.

Passwordless authentication is more secure and convenient. You can't forget or lose something you don't have.

Your email account protects your Asaph access. Use:

One-time codes are personal login credentials. Don't forward them to others or share them in messages.

Don't try to reuse old code emails. Request a new one each time you need to log in.

If you requested multiple codes, use the most recent one. Older codes may have expired.
