I'm successfully connecting to a password protected SFTP site using the WinSCP GUI and also with a WinSCP
Session in Excel VBA. However the client wants me to turn on at the SFTP site two factor authentication which sends a further one time code by SMS. I've done this and have no problems accessing the SFTP site via browser after logging in and entering the one time code that's SMS'd to me. I've searched your docs and have played around with both the GUI and the Excel VBA code but have no idea how to configure WinSCP to generate a further dialog box that allows entry of the one time code that's sent by SMS. For reference my VBA code is below. I've seen some suggestion that
mySession.executecommand("AUTHTYPE") will generate some useful information but I can't even succeed in opening the session.
