What this check does

DSALTA lists every organization the connected token can see, reads each member’s two-factor flag and records whether the organization requires two-factor authentication as supporting evidence. A member whose flag is not reported as enabled counts as not enabled.
This check also runs on 25 other integrations — see MFA should be enabled for all users for the full list.
This check reads the live member list of every organization on every run, not the Access page, leaving out addresses that still have a pending invitation. A member whose two-factor flag is missing counts as not enabled, and a person in several organizations counts as not enabled as soon as any one of them reports the flag off. If Uptrace returns no members at all — which cannot happen on a working token, because the token’s own user is always on the roster — the run ends in an error rather than a pass, so a broken credential is never mistaken for full two-factor coverage. Each organization’s own two-factor requirement setting is attached to the result as supporting evidence; it does not change the verdict, so an organization that requires two-factor authentication still fails while any member’s flag is off.
Passes when: Every member of the Uptrace organization has two-factor authentication enabled. A member without a readable flag counts as not enabled, and the check needs at least one member to evaluate.

Why this matters

Uptrace organization members can read the company’s production traces, logs and metrics, change alerting rules and create auth tokens with their own permissions. Two-factor authentication on every member keeps a stolen password from being used to reach that telemetry.

How to fix

Enforce two-factor authentication in Uptrace
  1. Ask each flagged member to sign in to the Uptrace console, open their user profile page and enable two-factor authentication.
  2. As an organization owner, open Organization settings and require two-factor authentication for all members, so that no member can leave it off.
  3. Run the check again from Compliance → Tests, or wait for the next scheduled run, and confirm no member is still reported without two-factor authentication.
Once resolved, DSALTA records a 200 (compliant) result on this test’s Source Data tab at the next scheduled run.

Frequently asked questions

Once a day, at 02:00 America/New_York, while the integration is connected. A run is skipped entirely if the integration is not in a connected state, or if the test has been deactivated.To see a fix reflected sooner, open the test from Compliance → Tests and click Run in the Run Test row. You need Full Access to run a test on demand.
The Status column answers “did the check run?”, not “did I pass”. Completed means DSALTA reached your system and finished evaluating — a check that ran and found a problem is still Completed.To see what it found, open the test and read the result code on the Source Data tab. 200 means nothing to fix; 204 means the check did not apply to your environment; 207 means it ran and found a compliance gap you need to act on. See Understanding test results.
Usually not. On an integration-powered check, Failed means DSALTA was blocked and could not evaluate it — result code 403 (a missing permission) or 428 (a setting DSALTA still needs from you). Code 500 means the run failed on DSALTA’s side.A genuine compliance gap does not turn the list red — it runs to completion and shows 207.
Deactivate it: open the test from Compliance → Tests, then use the ⋮ menu at the top right of the panel and choose Deactivate Test. It applies immediately, with no confirmation step.Write your justification in the Comments tab before you deactivate. Once deactivated, every other tab is grayed out, so Comments is the only place an auditor can read why — see Test detail.
No. DSALTA only reads. It never creates, modifies, or deletes resources, and every remediation step is performed by your team directly in the third-party product.
