alert> icloud account authentication is needed
I keep getting this in my notifications section. I have done the 2FA authentication several times and it would say "Apple ID verification completed successfully", but then I would get the alert again like 5 - 10 minutes later telling that authentication is needed
I have (EDIT: had) the same problem, but I logged in with an app-specific-password so I shouldn't need a 2FA code
@miraixyz What iCloud3 version are you running?
@Underlyingglitch App Specific Passwords App Specific Passwords are not supported by iCloud3. iCloud3 is a program running on a computer, not an app running on an iDevice. It uses web service calls to request the location of the devices in the iCloud's Family Sharing List. Apps running on iDevices use a different access method that is not available by programs.
Sorry to wake an older topic, but I presume the same limitations may prevent an Apple account that has a FIDO2 key protecting it, will be unable to be enrolled in icloud3?
I have a yubikey I need to plug in to get appleID's logged in, and it doesn't appear HA or Icloud3 support that auth flow.
That is correct. iCloud3 does not support hardware keys.

@SquirePug could you please share how you used your key to authenticate?
The Apple Web interface does not support hardware keys, only a 6-digit verification code. You need to disable the key and revert to an authentication code or use another iCloud account (another family member?) . Set up the Family Sharing list on that account.
