How to get MFA information from users

Hello all! Hope you're doing well.

We are trying to get information about if an user has enabled MFA on their profile. The best we could get is `is_exempt_from_login_verification` from the users API (https://developer.box.com/reference/resources/user--full/#param-is_exempt_from_login_verification) but as far as I understand, this field says if a user SHOULD enable or not.

Is there a way to know if an user has enabled their MFA?

Thanks in advance!

    Hi Vlad, 

    Welcome to Box Community!

    The User Activity Report for "Login" will be able to capture if managed users enabled the two factor/MFA for their account. 

    Here are the steps on how to export a User Activity Report:

    • Navigate to the admin console 
    • Reports > create report
    • User Activity > under action types, click "Login" 
    • Put a check mark on "Login Verification enabled"
    • Go to the date range to customize the date
    • Hit "run" to export the report

    Here's the article for reference: User Activity Report

    I hope I was able to help you with your concern. Thank you for posting!
