Feature IB Key 2FA - skip Authorize step

[aptano]

Describe the feature
After every Gateway restart or midnight restart I am asked to Authorize the app in IB key.

Expected interaction
I would like to do this step automatically without pressing othe Authorize button in IB keyevery time.

There is already a possibility to skip this step?

Sadly no, you can't skip it @aptano 😔 please see: https://github.com/Voyz/ibeam/wiki/Two-Factor-Authentication#disabling-2fa

Please look through that WiKi page and other Issues for ideas on how to automated it, although your milage may vary depending on the setup you have.

@lmezg consider using IBind with OAuth 1.0a, this way you won't need to do 2FA when using the REST API
