Question: did you have those in version 4.2 before you upgraded to 4.3?

If not, and doing this for the first time, please see:

Thank you Ken for your quick response , I am doing this for the first time. Only the login can be done through google account from the documentation . But how can I use authenticator code and use it for login. I am not able to see that in this documentation.

Am not understanding ... authentication is logging onto the moodle!
The Oauth2 service is built into moodle core code.  It's designed to be used for multiple oauth2 services ... Google, Microsoft are but 2 .. there is also Facebook, NextCloud, LinkedIn, Clever, MoodleNet, and a Custom option.

On your site as admin level user go to:
https://site/admin/tool/oauth2/issuers.php
To configure on the moodle end.
All of them require setup on the other end as well.

Don't think there are any files to upload to your moodle ... no coding is required either ... just filling out forms with appropriate information as required by the Oauth2 service.

I can speak to only one ... that of Google - that's the only one I've used.

Please see:

I added GOOGLE  authentication  to my portal . But I  would also like to know whether we can add verification code  which I will get from Authenticator APP(google/microsoft),  and login to my moodle portal.

Thank you  for your  help and support Ken.
