pmitchellQ: Can't get past LI and Indeed 2 step authentication
Trying to setup an automated job post scraper but keep getting error messages. I've tried several times to run test templates but it cannot get past two step authentication on Indeed and LinkedIn.
Where are the "how to" videos?
I've asked several times on Discord but I can't get a straight answer.

2-Step Authentication Support:
Current support:
✅ Authenticator apps (Google Authenticator, Authy, Microsoft Authenticator)
❌ Email OTP / SMS codes - Not automated yet
⏳ We're developing manual intervention feature - you'll be able to manually input email/SMS verification codes when prompted. Coming soon!
Current Solution: Use Authenticator App
Follow this tutorial:
