Generated 2FA code is invalid and different from google Authenicator app

[Mobeen-Ghaffar]

Here is my Code:

 var userToken = speakeasy.totp({
          secret: screte_code,
          digits: 6,
          encoding: 'base32',
          algorithm: 'sha1',
          // encoding: 'base32'
        });
        var verified = speakeasy.totp.verify(
          {
            secret: screte_code,
            encoding: 'base32',
            token: userToken,
          }
        );

Sometime it generate correct code and sometime incorrect. How can I fix this issue?
What I am doing wrong ?

I'm actually never getting the same code with GoogleAuth - this lib seems to be working fine, but it never generates matching code

EDIT: Ah now I see this is unmaintened... sorry.

hey there, I also facing the same issue and found a solution!
it looks like you need to use SHA256 algorithm in order to use a secret in google authenticator, and if you use the qr code you need to remove the "algo" setting in the url
