• Single sign-on capabilities
• Identity management

Provider Options

Google OAuth

Google OAuth Setup

1. Access Google Cloud Console

   • Go to Google Cloud Console
   • Select or create a project

2. Create OAuth Client

   • Click + CREATE CREDENTIALS
   • Select OAuth client ID
   • Choose Web application type

3. Configure OAuth Client

   • Add Authorized JavaScript origins:

     https://your-domain.com
   • Add Authorized redirect URIs:

     https://your-domain.com/api/auth/callback/google

tip

Make sure to replace your-domain.com with your actual platform domain.

Azure AD

Azure Active Directory Setup

1. Access Azure Portal

   • Go to Azure Active Directory
   • Register a new application

2. Configure Application

   • Add redirect URIs
   • Set up platform configurations
   • Configure authentication settings

   • User.Read permissions
   • Additional scopes as needed

Custom OIDC

Custom OIDC Provider

For enterprise setups, you can use any OpenID Connect compliant provider:

• Okta
• Auth0
• Keycloak
• Other OIDC-compliant providers

Required provider capabilities:

• OpenID Connect support
• OAuth 2.0 compliance
• User profile information
• Email verification

JWT Configuration

Generate a secure signing key for JWT tokens:

openssl rand -base64 32

caution

Store this key securely - it's used to sign user sessions.

Information Collection

Required Values for Platform Installation

• OAuth Client ID
• OAuth Client Secret
• JWT signing key
• Configured redirect URI

Example Configuration

auth:
  jwtSigningKey: 'your-generated-key' # From openssl command
  providers:
    google:
      enabled: true
      clientID: 'your-client-id' # From OAuth provider
      clientSecret: 'your-secret' # From OAuth provider

Validation

Before proceeding, verify:

1. OAuth client is properly configured
2. Redirect URIs match your domain
3. JWT signing key is generated and saved
4. Required scopes are enabled

Troubleshooting

Common issues and solutions:

1. Invalid Redirect URI

   • Verify exact URI match
   • Check for protocol (https) mismatch
   • Confirm domain spelling

2. Authentication Failures

   • Verify client credentials
   • Check scope configurations
   • Validate JWT signing key

Next Steps

1. ✅ Configure OAuth provider
2. ✅ Generate JWT signing key
3. ➡️ Proceed to PostgreSQL Setup
