As Tinu pointed you need to use an OTP authenticator (usually a program on
your cell phone or on your computer) that will generate the authentication

Oh yes,
I do, sorry I forgot to include that info. I use keepassxc with it's
built-in OTP generator for all the OTP sites. Pretty darn handy. It shows the
updated OTP code every 30 sec, and all you do is double-click the circle by
the keepassxc entry to copy the OTP to the select-buffer and
middle-mouse-paste into the dialog.
I've tried several different OTP generators, and keepassxc is hard to beat
for simplicity and convenience. (also store the OTP recovery codes in the
notes section of the keepassxc entry -- so it is a one-stop-shop).
Thanks for making sure I wasn't doing something really stupid. It's
happened in the past...
