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.

@raf-42 What do you mean, a "direct Authy link to the 2.2.3 desktop version"?
In the point (1) of the post, I give detailed per-OS instructions, including links to download the 2.2.3 version.

decryptedSeed was undefined for all my entries.

Are you sure you entered your backup password, before trying to export? (See point 3.)

@raf-42 What do you mean, a "direct Authy link to the 2.2.3 desktop version"? In the point (1) of the post, I give detailed per-OS instructions, including links to download the 2.2.3 version.

....I suck at reading comprehension clearly, totally missed the dropdown. Ignore me :)

decryptedSeed was undefined for all my entries.

Are you sure you entered your backup password, before trying to export? (See point 3.)

Thats it, I didnt do the 2nd line of step 3. Thanks again for the steps, very useful.

Since I don't know yet which app I'm going to use as a replacement I used this line to save a copy of the original data. I will work on the conversion using a different language using my preferred IDE.

console.log(JSON.stringify( appManager.getModel())

I'm surprised that this was not mentioned before. Is there anything wrong with this?

I get Uncaught ReferenceError: appManager is not defined error. Followed all steps (and watched video to confirm). Authy 2.2.3

upd: I restarted Authy and then it worked.

Thank you @gboudreau you are the saviour!!!
It was not really clear enough firstly that you need to stick to the 2.2.3 version to make the args work, however when I'd realized what is the roadbump - worked like a charm!

I was even able to copy Humble Bundle 2FA codes to Bitwarden!

PS if you are using modern windows version you could execute the following to install Authy Desktop 2.2.3 with the winget
winget install -e --id Twilio.Authy -v 2.2.3

This worked perfectly for me, although I couldn't quite figure out how to get the console to allow me to copy the QR codes themselves - it didn't really matter though as it gave me the secret and URI for every entry anyway and I was able to confirm that they match up in Bitwarden and Authy. Can just encrypt the details with something like VeraCrypt in case they are ever needed in the future.

Big thanks to the gist OP

@gregsadetsky
Thank you so so much for documenting all of this!

I wanted to export my tokens from Authy and re-import them into KeePassXC. I haven't seen anyone describe how to do this, so I wrote the missing code, and documented how to do this export + import below. Hopefully it can be of use to someone else!

This is gold! thank you!!

Thank you @gboudreau for the extensive documentation.

I didn't want to leave Authy but wanted to quickly export all my codes to BitWarden to have an easier desktop experience, without the need to reset each service. This allowed me to do exactly that, without flaws and in 5 minutes.

Thank you indeed.

EDIT:
P.S. You might want to update the EOL to 19/03/2024 since Authy has accelerated the phase-out for the desktop app.

On windows to install the old authy even though you already have an existing version, I had to add --no-upgrade --force so run the following:

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

Logged in to snap version without removing 2.5.0, exported everything without a hitch.

So this Go Library worked like a charm for me. You enter your password, approve the device then enter your backup password. It exports all keys as otpauth://.

Kept getting "Not acceptable" like some kind of villainous nanny from a children's movie (Flatpak, 2.2.4 and also 2.5.0)

Then just used the alexzorin/authy CLI program mentioned right above, and it worked perfectly! Thanks a lot for the link!

All instructions worked flawlessly; thank you so much, OP.

My only note, @gboudreau: if users want to uninstall Authy afterwards, Windows complains that Update.exe is required to uninstall. For that, I simply restored both Update.exe's from Recycle Bin and then the Windows uninstall proceeded perfectly, uninstalling all Authy versions. Unsure how many this will affect or how important it is.

//

1Password users, you can directly copy & paste the TOTP secret into the 1Password desktop application's (via "Add a one-time password") without needing to scan the QR codes. Everything worked just like the OP explained; a reminder that any Authy-specific tokens (e.g., Twitch) aren't reproducible in 1Password, so make sure to switch that to a normal 2FA code first.

After I ran the script I got following JSON:

When I enter topt screen: XXXXXXMGYYYYYOZNXXXXXX into bitwarden and enter 2fa code on cloudflare website I got invalid token message from cloudflare. Did I miss something?

Keep Authy on mobile devices (smartphone, tablet, etc.) and use a Password Manager with Integrated OTP/TOTP like Bitwarden on Desktop since it makes life a bit easier.

However, it is important to note that entrusting both your password and 2FA to a Password Manager is not advisable. The reason the desktop app has been discontinued is to encourage users to utilize two physically different devices for added security.

Ente Auth

@NeoMod

NeoMod commented Mar 19, 2024

No, it's not. It doesn't matter where the passwords and codes reside as long as you have both.

Yes, it is. Security-wise, the whole point of 2FA is to prevent a third party from gaining access to your services even
if your password is compromised.

Having both the password and the 2FA in the same place nullifies this security concept and exposes all your services to the same level of breach vulnerability as before; a third party now has to focus on just one password - the master password for your password manager(*) - to gain complete access to all your accounts.

The opposite is also true: if you lose access's to either your password or your 2FA, you can still provide "proof of ownership" for some account type and reset your credentials. But if you lose access to both, because they are in the same place, regaining access to some accounts might be very difficult if not impossible in same cases.

(*) broadly speaking, a third party has to focus just on obtaining access to your password manager: it doesen't matter if it's by gaining access to your master password or to your workstation, for example.
