Set up Multi-factor Authentication
If your Production has Multi-factor authentication (MFA) enabled, you'll need to go through an extra login step as a security precaution. You'll know the production has MFA enabled by this message:
MFA increases the security of your work on Flow Capture significantly by combining more than one independent identity verification method. The first is a user's email/password combination that's established by them as their login credentials. The next is an authentication code sent to, or provided by, a separate personal device such as a smartphone that is otherwise removed from the traditional login process.

Get to know the Flow Capture Inbox
The Flow Capture Inbox is the first place you'll land when you sign into Flow Capture, and doubles as a Viewer and a Player. It's where you'll review any content sent to you in Flow Capture.

Login to watch via Apple TV
Our Apple TV app makes for a great top-level Playback viewing experience from your home, office, or anywhere else you can get an internet connection, an Apple TV, and a television. And if you've got an Apple TV 4K and HDR-capable set, review in HDR & Dolby Vision at resolutions up to 4K.
To download the Flow Capture app on Apple TV, open the App Store and search for ‘Flow Capture.’ Look for our app with the green ‘F CAP’ logo, just like in the picture below.
There are two ways you can log in to the Flow Capture app on your Apple TV: Simple sign-in and Email
Simple is extremely handy if you've only got the Apple Remote to navigate around. Email is a more traditional option that allows you to enter your regular email/password combo which is much easier done using the Remote app on an iPhone.
Simple Sign-in
This option allows you to use another device to sign in to the app via a browser and access code. If you choose the Simple option, you'll be shown a QR code, a six-character alphanumeric code and a URL.:
Open up the camera app on your iPhone or iPad, point it at the QR code and tap the link that pops up on the screen of your mobile device. If you have the Flow Capture app installed, the next steps will happen through that. If you don't have it, you'll go through them in a mobile browser. The same process happens in both places.
Log in to Flow Capture on the mobile device as you normally would, including any two-factor authentication that may be required (you will have to temporarily background whatever app you're using to log in if you're using a separate app for2FA).
The six-character alphanumeric code from Step 1 should automatically populate on the next screen. If that's not the case, enter it and tap Sign In. Your device will say that you're signed in and that the TV app will do the same shortly.
At this point, you'll be prompted to create a six-digit PIN code, which will allow you to securely and more quickly access your content on your Apple TV next time you open the Flow Capture app. The PIN you create will be valid for 30 days.
Then you can hop back into the TV app and start reviewing.
This method allows you to access the app using the same credentials you set up for our web, desktop, or iOS apps. You'll have to type in your email and password manually unless you're using the Remote app on your iPhone and have the login saved to your keychain.
PIN Creation
After signing in, you'll be asked to create a six-digit PIN that's used to give you quicker access to the app any time you leave it.
After signing in, you'll be prompted to create a six-digit PIN code so you won't have to go through the full login process every time. The PIN you create will be valid for 30 days.
