 ### How do I set up recovery codes for my account so I don't lose access?
 
-We have a [short step-by-step guide](https://github.com/gravitational/teleport/discussions/12379) on setting up recovery codes.
+When you sign up for a Teleport Enterprise (Cloud) account and set up your first
+user within the account, the Teleport Web UI displays a set of recovery codes:
+
+![Web UI view showing Teleport recovery
+codes](../../img/cloud/recovery-codes.png)
+
+Paste the recovery codes into a safe location, such as your organization's
+password manager. You can use these codes to sign into your account if you lose
+your password or multi-factor authentication credentials.
