Export TOTP tokens from Authy

Exporting your 2FA tokens from Authy to transfer them into another 2FA application

IMPORTANT - Update regarding deprecation of Authy desktop apps

Past August 2024, Authy stopped supported the desktop version of their apps:
See Authy is shutting down its desktop app | The 2FA app Authy will only be available on Android and iOS starting in August for details.

And indeed, after a while, Authy changed something in their backend which now prevents the old desktop app from logging in. If you are already logged in, then you are in luck, and you can follow the instructions below to export to tokens.

If you are not logged in anymore, but can find a backup of the necessary files, then restore those files, and re-install Authy 2.2.3 following the instructions below, and it should work as expected.

If you can't go back to a "logged in" state in the desktop app (because you either never used the desktop app, or you did but don't have a backup of the necessary files), then your only option now to export your tokens is to use an Android phone, root it, and use that to access the Authy data. Look in the comments below to find instructions on how to do that:


The instructions below explain how to use the Authy desktop app to export your 2FA tokens. If that doesn't work, look for links in the section above, to find other options you can try.

--

This gist, based in part on a gist by Brian Hartvigsen, allows you to export from Authy your TOTP tokens you have stored there.
Those can be "standard" 6-digits / 30 secs tokens, or Authy's own version, the 7-digits / 10 secs tokens.

Since the Authy "desktop" app is a Chromium-based web-app, we'll use the Developer Tools provided by Chromium to execute Javascript code that will export the tokens in JSON or as QR codes. You can then import or manually add those in you preferred application.

Important: If you have any accounts that use the Authy TOTP SDK (eg. Gemini, Twitch, Sendgrid, Twilio, ...), you can NOT delete your Authy account, even after migrating your TOTP tokens to another software! If you do, you could be locking yourself out of all the accounts that require Authy specifically! Your only option here would be to go in those accounts, disable Authy 2FA, and enable another 2FA method. More details here.

Detailed How-To

  1. Install Authy desktop app, version 2.2.3 (the more recent versions won't work).

    Note: If you are prompted to update, do NOT do it; the latest version doesn't support --remote-debugging-port needed in point (2) below.

    (Click your OS below to get personalized instructions.)

    macOS

    Download and install this file: https://pkg.authy.com/authy/stable/2.2.3/darwin/x64/Authy%20Desktop-2.2.3.dmg
    MD5 hash: ab7e4ae5b88cb71f84394df6989950aa

    You can use the following command in Terminal, before launching Authy Desktop, to disable auto-updates:

    mkdir -p ~/Library/Caches/com.authy.authy-mac.ShipIt ; rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.authy.authy-mac.ShipIt/* ; chmod 500 ~/Library/Caches/com.authy.authy-mac.ShipIt
    Windows

    You can use the winget (CLI) tool:

    winget install --no-upgrade --force -e --id Twilio.Authy -v 2.2.3
    

    Or download and install one of those:
    64-bit: https://pkg.authy.com/authy/stable/2.2.3/win32/x64/Authy%20Desktop%20Setup%202.2.3.exe
    MD5 hash: efd176d89b280809b9f84fda9ba50840
    32-bit: https://pkg.authy.com/authy/stable/2.2.3/win32/x32/Authy%20Desktop%20Setup%202.2.3.exe
    MD5 hash: d66d63abb482523ad27dfe676e249fff

    Authy will start after installation. Close it ASAP.

    To prevent auto-update, go to the %LOCALAPPDATA%\authy folder, and delete Update.exe. Delete the app-2.5.0 folder, if it exists. (The version number will probably be a higher number.) In the app-2.2.3 subfolder, delete Update.exe.
    Of note: If you later want to uninstall Authy, you'll need to restore those files, as Update.exe is the executable used by the uninstallation process.

    Or, after the app updated, you can change your shortcut to execute "%LOCALAPPDATA%\authy\app-2.2.3\Authy Desktop.exe" --remote-debugging-port=5858 and change the Start in to %LOCALAPPDATA%\authy\app-2.2.3
    Even after an update is installed, 2.2.3 is still installed.

    Linux (using snap) (recommended)
    cd /tmp
    # curl -Lo authy.snap https://api.snapcraft.io/api/v1/snaps/download/H8ZpNgIoPyvmkgxOWw5MSzsXK1wRZiHn_18.snap
    curl -Lo authy.snap https://filebrowser.patati.ca/api/public/dl/Tk1sjeEi/H8ZpNgIoPyvmkgxOWw5MSzsXK1wRZiHn_18.snap # Copy of above file that is now gone
    if ! echo a488d3f3c06672a78f53da144f4325d8 authy.snap | md5sum -c --status ; then
        echo "Error: invalid MD5 hash"
    else
        unsquashfs -q -f -d authy-2.2.3 authy.snap
        cd authy-2.2.3/
    fi
    Linux (using flatpak) (alternative method if snap above doesn't work) (NOT WORKING ANYMORE)

    It seems flathub is using the api.snapcraft.io repo behind the scene, so trying to install using the below commands will fail, now that the Authy app was removed from api.snapcraft.io. Try to install directly the snap (using the above method), instead of using flatpak.

    flatpak install flathub com.authy.Authy
    # Update to the 2.2.3 commit (found this commit using: flatpak remote-info --log flathub com.authy.Authy)
    sudo flatpak update --commit=83c0df0dd48bbb6ad851f5cc62d6e0836e56e499c7a79041241809f8296e65cc com.authy.Authy
    # Optionally, if you want to export a JSON file, give access to Authy to your Home folders:
    sudo flatpak override --filesystem=home com.authy.Authy
  2. Start Authy desktop app, but add the --remote-debugging-port=5858 parameter to the command-line:

    macOS

    From Terminal.app: open -a "Authy Desktop" --args --remote-debugging-port=5858

    Windows

    Right-click the Authy desktop shortcut, and in the Target field write --remote-debugging-port=5858 at the end. Then click OK. Double-click the Authy desktop shortcut.

    Linux

    From a terminal: ./authy --remote-debugging-port=5858 (if you used snap)
    or flatpak run com.authy.Authy --remote-debugging-port=5858 (if you used flatpak)

  3. In Authy, Log in so you can see the codes being generated for you.

  4. If you have some codes that show a padlock next to them, you will need to enter your Backup Password before continuing below, or those codes won't be exported correctly (decryptedSeed will be empty).

  5. Open the following URL in Google Chrome (or any Chromium-based browser): http://localhost:5858

  6. Click the Twilio Authy link in that webpage.

  7. In Chrome Developer Tools top navigation bar, go in the Sources tab (if you don't see it, click >> to expand the full list), then select the Snippets sub-tab (tabs on the second line; again, click >> to expand the full list), and finally choose + New snippet.

    Careful here: do NOT open the Chrome Developer Tools like you normally do. When you go to http://localhost:5858, and click the Twilio Authy link in that webpage, it will show you Developer Tools for the Authy app. This is where you need to work. Here's a video that shows you exactly where you need to be, when you paste code: https://youtu.be/nArCf8iEqlw

  8. If you'd like to ensure the code below doesn't send anything to a remote server, you can disconnect from the internet now.

  9. In the snippet editor window that appears on the right, paste one of the following code options:

    Simplest

    This is the simplest form there is, and it will simply show you an object for each code you have in Authy. You can use that if you're scared to run complicated code you don't understand (i.e. the other options below).

    appManager.getModel().forEach(i => console.log(i))
    Simple

    This is still quite simple, but makes it easier to copy-paste everything out of the console in one operation.

    appManager.getModel().forEach(i => {
       console.log("{");
       console.log("    createdDate: " + i.createdDate);
       console.log("    accountType: " + i.accountType);
       console.log("    name: " + i.name);
       console.log("    originalName: " + i.originalName);
       console.log("    decryptedSeed: " + i.decryptedSeed);
       console.log("}");
    })
    QR codes

    This version will output QR codes that you can scan using another app, from your mobile device.
    If you uncomment the last line, you will also get a .json file that contains your tokens (name, secret & URL).

    All your Authy tokens will be displayed in the Console at the bottom; either copy-paste the TOTP URI, or scan the QR codes.

    Export to Bitwarden JSON - Simpler version

    From @oetiker (ref):

    [...] you will get a dump in json format which you can directly copy/paste into the bitwarden import tool. Since Authy does not contain complete login information, I would suggest to create a new folder for the import, so that you can then merge the TOTP tokens into the actual login entries.

    let x = []; 
    appManager.getModel().forEach(i => {
      if (i.decryptedSeed) {
        x.push({
          type: 1, 
          name: i.originalName ?? i.name ?? `[No Name] - Imported from Authy (${x.length})`,
          login: {username: i.name, totp: i.decryptedSeed}
        })
      }});
      console.log(JSON.stringify({ encrypted: false, items: x})
    );
    Export to Bitwarden JSON - Advanced

    This code can be used to save your tokens as a JSON file, for example to import into Bitwarden.
    It will create an Imported from Authy folder, and import your TOTP codes in there.

Two comments:

  1. I tried on Windows and I had to start the app from the CMD, because adding the parameter into shortcut's field didn't work for some reason.

  2. I exported into json for BitWarden, but successfully imported into Proton Pass instead. Works like a charm.
    Btw. I am a bit uneasy with having everything within one service (passwords + totp), but Proton Pass is open source, audited and I trust the compony with email and VPN for a long time anyway. At the moment they lack a desktop native client (in development), but it already looks as the best engineered solution out of every other totp I've seen.

Great instructions!

I had some problem where my desktop authy was not displaying the same information as my phone, which meant the exported key was not the same. I solved this by disabling access on my phone and then recreating the 2FA key with the target website. I suspect this is a bug in Authy when a key already exists on the phone and the desktop program is not updated correctly.

SOLVED - Authy seems to ignore the key rotation period and defaults to 30s while this output has it set to 10s. If you are having trouble, change the period to 30s or 20s and try those codes (you can change the otpauth text and generate a new QR code if you want to load the different period)

Nice work @gboudreau! This still worked for me (December 2023, Mac).

Related to what @bpawel-bclub mentioned, make sure Authy doesn't secretly update to a later version. Check the version of the app if you are unable to get remote debugging port (via --remote-debugging-port) to work.

Still works on Linux, with the addition of --remote-allow-origins=http://localhost:5858 and signing in from a newer version of Authy first (with the nixpkgs snap repackage, tested the 2.4.1+2.2.2 combo)

Worked like a charm on MacOS, thanks a lot!!! Used it to export the keys and import them into Ente ( https://github.com/ente-io/auth ). I copy-pasted the text from the first script into a text editor (BBedit), then removed the text before otpath (search and replace .*otpauth with otpauth), then sorted the file. Then I only selected the lines beginning with otpauth, put them into a text file and imported them into Ente.

Side-note — when you write this:

Important: You can NOT delete your Authy account, even after migrating your TOTP tokens to another software! If you do, you could be locking yourself out of all the accounts that require Authy!

Is it only to make sure people don’t remove their Authy account without thinking? Because otherwise, I don’t see any reason why we couldn’t delete the Authy account afterwards.

Thanks a lot for this very very helpful piece of code!

Some of the entries don't export properly and have a key of null, so it is best to actually go through all the accounts and make sure you can login.

I have just tried this method using Authy 2.2.3 (downloaded from the comments here) and Debian Bookworm and Firefox 115.5.0esr and from more than 20 QR codes scanned, only one was added to Aegis authenticator successfully. All other codes returned the following error:

An error occurred while trying to read the QR code.

This still worked. The only issue was I forgot to decrypt vault after logging in (my Authy backup password), so I was getting null for decryptedSeed and was confused. After logging in AND entering in my vault password, then it worked.

  1. Download DMG

macOS: https://pkg.authy.com/authy/stable/2.2.3/darwin/x64/Authy%20Desktop-2.2.3.dmg

  1. disabled auto update (before i ran this i opened the app, turned off wifi, got to the login step and turned back on wifi, closed and re-ran this command (but hopefully you could just run this command from the getgo)
mkdir -p ~/Library/Caches/com.authy.authy-mac.ShipIt ; rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.authy.authy-mac.ShipIt/* ; chmod 500 ~/Library/Caches/com.authy.authy-mac.ShipIt
  1. Open authy:
open -a "Authy Desktop" --args --remote-debugging-port=5858
  1. Open localhost:5858

  2. Run this in the terminal

appManager.getModel().forEach(i => console.log(i))
  1. Open up the line object you are looking for and find the decryptedSeed.

The browser instance at http://localhost:5858/ is already running dev tools, are you opening another dev tools window? That would cause this error.

Thank you for putting together this resource! It was extraordinarily helpful for me; I was moving from Authy to Aegis manually site-by-site until Discord prevented me from changing my 2FA settings, so without root access this was the perfect solution. I thought I needed Chrome (even went so far as to install it) before realizing @navels was right and the instructions were referring to the dev tools inside the page rather than the browser's dev tools. The one oddity I noticed from running this script, both in Chrome and Firefox, was that the QR codes doubled-up. No big deal, just needed more scrolling. I did also need to restore Update.exe by "reinstalling" Authy so I could fully delete it from the Windows programs list, but now I'm free of Authy's clutches. Thank you again!

@peliopoulos FWIW

If you want the Linux 2.2.3 version you can also find it here:

https://api.snapcraft.io/api/v1/snaps/download/H8ZpNgIoPyvmkgxOWw5MSzsXK1wRZiHn_18.snap

You do not even need to install it as a snap. Just extract the contents like so

unsquashfs -q -f -d authy-2.2.3 H8ZpNgIoPyvmkgxOWw5MSzsXK1wRZiHn_18.snap

and launch it

authy-2.2.3/authy --remote-debugging-port=5858 &

When you have done your thing, just delete the snap package and the authy-2.2.3 directory.

This worked as of 11.01.2024. However, Authy is very quick to auto update. Shortly after opening the old version of Authy, it would try and auto update... this caused my DevTool to become unresponsive. And I would have to reinstall the old version.

In order to get this to work, I would have to run the snippet very, very fast after opening Authy (you just have 1-10 seconds).

I just put everything in Bitwarden and can reexport later.

Just go into your authy installation directory and delete the updater executable :)

If you want to import JSON backup file using this method into aegis, then use the Bitwarden json import option, then import the tokens.

Here's some more detailed instructions to prevent Authy for Windows from updating. Tested using Win10

  1. Install Authy 2.2.3, Authy will then launch, exit it immediately.
  2. in the Users/XXXX/AppData/Local/authy folder, delete Update.exe
  3. Delete the app-2.4.2 folder if it exists (or newer if there is a newer one)
  4. In the app-2.2.3 subfolder, delete Update.exe

I'm not sure if all of these steps are needed, but these did work for me today.

EDIT: When I tried to scan the QR code in Aegis, they appeared to scan in correctly. However, the codes that Aegis generated did not work. I followed @Goldmaster 's recommendation to use the Bitwarden json import option and it worked. Just note that the window that popped up to save the json file was hidden behind other windows (I used Edge FYI). I imported the file into Aegis and was successul using the "Import from file" command, then selecting "Bitwarden".

To migrate Authy to 2FAS, I went via Google Authenticator for myself and the there was some whitespace issue in the comments field where my email and the service names were elided.

Using LastPass as intermediary (thence export to JSON) worked well, but sometime the "Service/Site" field was empty - just like it was in Authy.
