No, OP is completely correct. It’s all down to how the company configures their MFA, but MS MFA will definitely show you a two-digit number on the system you initiated the auth on, and force you to type that on your Authenticator app.
I work with a vendor that has this setup and do this every day when accessing their systems.
Thankfully my own company doesn’t have the type a number stuff turned on.
Yes you are right, that is how I have to do it - I got it the wrong way round in my previous post. I enter the numbers into the app on my phone.
