restore icloud data without old device

I purchased a new iphone - my old one was company owned and I was just laid off, meaning I had to send back my hardware (including PC). Every time I try to log in to my icloud account it requests the authentication code send to my other device - which I no longer have. How can I restore from my icloud account without my old device?

iPhone 8, iOS 13

Thanks this did end up allowing me to restore but it wasn't that easy. I had to make sure I requested this twice before any prompt came up which allowed for changing the phone # associated with the account. I appreciate your help!
