Can't sign in? Troubleshooting login and 2FA
Current sign-in works one of two ways depending on how your workspace is set up: password (with optional two-factor), or single sign-on through Microsoft Entra ID. Most "can't log in" problems trace back to one of a handful of causes below.
Password sign-in and 2FA codes
Enter your email first — Current checks whether your domain is set up for SSO and, if so, redirects you to your organization's sign-in page automatically. Otherwise you'll sign in with your password.
- 1Code not arrivingCheck spam first — codes come from Current's transactional sender. You can request a new code, but there's a short cooldown between requests, so repeated immediate clicks won't speed it up.
- 2Too many wrong codesAfter several failed attempts, verification locks briefly as a precaution. Wait it out and try again with a fresh code rather than continuing to guess.
- 3Still stuckConfirm you're entering the most recent code — each one expires after a short window, so an older email in your inbox won't work.
SSO errors
If your workspace requires Microsoft Entra ID sign-in and you land back on a password screen or hit an error mid-redirect, see "Set up single sign-on with Microsoft Entra ID" for the exact error codes (like a redirect-URI mismatch or an expired client secret) and how a Tenant Admin fixes them. Those errors are almost always a configuration issue on the Entra side, not something an individual user can resolve themselves — loop in your Tenant Admin.
"Waiting for access" screen
If you land on a pending-access screen after signing in, it means Current recognized you but a Tenant Admin hasn't assigned you a role yet — common right after a workspace turns on SSO, since the first sign-in and the role assignment are two separate steps. The screen checks automatically every few seconds and moves you into the workspace the moment you're approved — no need to keep refreshing manually.
Disabled accounts
If a Tenant Admin has deactivated your account, signing in takes you to a distinct "access turned off" message rather than the pending screen. This isn't a bug or a lockout to troubleshoot — it means access was intentionally revoked. Contact your Tenant Admin to be reactivated.
