my organization uses MFA with Microsoft Authenticator for office products and also we use it for some 3rd part apps with the One Time Password codes.
I have a 2 part question in regard to the OTP codes that are generated:
I cannot find any documentation on how long the actual session is set to when logged into a 3rd party app using a one time passcode with the authenticator.
(My organization does not have any location policies that I know of turned on.) Does anyone know if there is a set session timeout with using the codes? or is it set by the organization?
Also, I do not see the Microsoft Authenticator app in my iOS settings to allow location tracking set to "Allow Always". Why is this?
