TOTP 2FA

[TRGORE]

Is there a way to automate TOTP 2FA with IBC? The IBKR login I am using is a secondary login, and doesn't use the IB-key authentication (as with my main IBKR login). The secondary account uses a TOTP auth code instead.

Could this feature be added to IBC?

IBC won't be adding this (it's winding down — see #347). If you're on IB Gateway, ibg-controller (https://github.com/code-hustler-ft3d/ibg-controller) (a headless-Docker-focused IBC alternative) does automated TOTP: set TWOFACTOR_CODE to your Base32 secret and it computes and enters the code at login — no phone tap. Your setup (a dedicated login whose 2FA is Mobile Authenticator/TOTP) is exactly the clean case it's built for. It targets headless Docker Gateway specifically, so if you're driving TWS desktop it won't help.
