TriliumNotes Web Clipper Lacks TOTP Authentication Support
When a TriliumNext server instance has TOTP two-factor authentication enabled, the Web Clipper extension has no mechanism to accept or submit a TOTP code during login, causing authentication to fail entirely. Users who have secured their self-hosted instance with TOTP cannot use the Web Clipper, effectively forcing a choice between browser extension functionality and basic account security. This is a missing authentication flow in the extension rather than a configuration issue on the user's end.

Similar Problems
surfaced semanticallyMicrosoft Teams login blocked by authenticator QR-code flow
A user cannot log in to Teams because troubleshooting and the authenticator flow force a QR scan from the phone instead of opening the app. The sign-in path is blocked.
Circular MFA Bootstrap Loop Locks New Users Out of Teams
New Teams users hit a circular authentication dependency: Teams requires the Authenticator app to log in, but the Authenticator app itself requires a Teams login code to set up. Neither app can be activated without the other, completely blocking account access.
Authentication Flow Requires URL Paste Which Some Clients Block
Claude desktop app authentication flow requires pasting a URL but the app only provides a code entry field. Users cannot complete login when the authentication method does not match the interface provided.
Teams Cannot Save Login Password for Automatic Sign-In
A Microsoft Teams user reports the app does not allow saving their password for automatic login, forcing repeated manual sign-in. This is a minor but recurring friction point, likely tied to enterprise security policies that restrict credential caching.
Notion 2FA Bypasses Authenticator App and Falls Back to Insecure Email Codes
Notion's desktop app silently bypasses configured TOTP authenticator apps and sends email verification codes instead, undermining enterprise security policies. Users who specifically disabled email 2FA in favor of an authenticator app find their preference ignored. This creates a significant security gap for organizations using Notion in regulated environments.
