Procedure Test
    String sSecretBase32

    // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    // Generating TOTP Base32 Secret: 
    // When you enable 2FA with a TOTP-based authenticator app, Google will provide you with a QR code
    // that you can scan using the app. This QR code contains a TOTP base32 secret.
    // You can also choose to view and copy the secret manually.

    // given the current system date/time.
