My passwords didn’t transfer to my new phone, how do I get them to?

I had to get a new phone and after restoring it to the backup from the cloud, none of my saved passwords ate on it. How can I retrieve the passwords I had saved on my old phone. The old phone is not in my possession anymore.

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14

Read about keychain:


"With iCloud Keychain, you can keep your passwords and other secure information updated across your devices."

If you're not using two-factor authentication, you might be prompted to create an iCloud Security Code—six digits, complex alphanumerics, or randomly generated—to authorize additional devices and verify your identity. If you forgot your code, you might be able to reset it ( https://support.apple.com/kb/HT202755 ).
