We have an Atlassian account (@Yash) used for Bitbucket and other Atlassian services.

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) was enabled on this account. However, we are currently unable to log in because:

  • The authenticator app is no longer accessible.

  • We do not have the 24-character recovery key.

  • Backup recovery codes are not available.

  • There is no alternative authentication method configured.

As a result, we are completely locked out of the account.

We would like assistance with:

  • Disabling 2FA for this account, or

  • Resetting the 2FA so we can regain access.

We are ready to provide any required verification details to confirm account ownership.

Please guide us on how to proceed.
