Apple ID Text

Hi, I’ve received a text with an Apple ID code, I don’t remember requesting one?


could this mean someone is trying to gain access?

Someone may be trying to sign your Apple ID, which would generate the request for a verification code. Since you have 2 Factor Authentication enabled, as long as they can't access one of your trusted devices, they can't get a code, and sign in. You should be okay.
