How do I approve my iphone on another device ?

Guys, anyone sorted it out for Iphone 11pro?

When you you sign into your Apple ID account, it is just stuck in waiting for approval from another device. I Have Mac air available, but nothing pops up there and even if you generate codes there , it does not help as there is nowhere to fill them in on iphone.
