113 +## Usable and non-usable methods for users
114 +
115 +Administrators can view user authentication methods in the Microsoft Entra admin center. Usable methods are listed first, followed by non-usable methods.
116 +
117 +Each authentication method can become nonusable for different reasons. For example, a Temporary Access Pass might expire, or a FIDO2 security key might fail attestation. The portal gets updated to explain why the method isn't usable.
118 +
119 +Authentication methods that are no longer available due to **Require re-register multifactor authentication** also appear here.
