Beginning Monday, May 8 you will notice a new experience when using the Microsoft Authenticator app to complete multifactor authentication. When sign in approval request is sent to your phone using Microsoft Authenticator, a two digit number will be displayed in your web browser. You will be asked to enter that two digit number into the Microsoft Authenticator app in order to approve the sign in.

This change is required by Microsoft for all users of the Microsoft Authenticator app, and will help keep your information safe and secure. This change will not affect you if you complete multifactor authentication using a text message, phone call, or authentication token.
