Why did i just have to setup 2FA again? I already had 2FA setup. I logged in today and got prompted to setup 2FA again. So i proceeded to see what would happen. Setup was successful and i was also able to use a key from old 2FA setup to login to my account. Now i have 2 2FA codes i can use to get into my account. Looks like a security bug.
Hello, I see "essentially you will first need to authenticate with your Atlassian Account before you are able to authenticate with your Bitbucket Cloud account." That doc was last updated 15 Sept 2023? How did i not get a prompt to enable the other 2FA before yesterday? Multiple web logins since 15 Sept 2023 and not until yesterday do i get prompted with a confusing request to enable another 2FA.
That doc seems focused on if users forgot or don't know one of the other factors. As of today i have to go through 3 steps. This is what my login flow looks like now:
The link says i can disable one, but how do i know which one i should disable without dissecting all atlassian resources or compromising security? How do i directly login to my bitbucket instead of having to go through redirects and enter 3 forms of auth? Is there a specific link i can visit to get past this when i just want to login to bitbucket? It seems more like a engineering bug with the work around being this confusing UX. Did someone just push the code to prompt for the extra 2FA yesterday?
No response to the direct questions? I guess "We received your request. Help is on the way! An Atlassian Support Engineer will review the post and respond on this thread within 2 business days." is also just words that don't mean anything.

Hi travistst,
There are 2 layers of MFA present here, one layer is at the Atlassian account level and the other is at the Bitbucket Cloud account level - more information may be found below:
Hope this helps.
Cheers!
