I can't login to the azure portal. Azure requires a MS Authenticator code of 6 digits while my authenticator provides 8 digits.
Searching on this issue, none was able to solve my problem. One post I found says that authenticator provides 8 digits for personal accounts and 6 digits for work or school accounts.
I don't have a work account neither a school account. I have an azure account under my personal email. How can I solve this problem?
