note

This documentation lists only the settings that you need to change from their default values. Be aware that any changes other than those explicitly mentioned in this guide could cause issues accessing your application.

authentik configuration​

To support the integration of Homarr with authentik, you need to create an application/provider pair in authentik.

Create an application and provider in authentik​

  1. Log in to authentik as an admin, and open the authentik Admin interface.
  2. Navigate to Applications > Applications and click Create with Provider to create an application and provider pair. (Alternatively you can first create a provider separately, then create the application and connect it with the provider.)
  • Application: provide a descriptive name, an optional group for the type of application, the policy engine mode, and optional UI settings.
  • Choose a Provider type: select OAuth2/OpenID Connect as the provider type.
  • Configure the Provider: provide a name (or accept the auto-provided name), the authorization flow to use for this provider, and the following required configurations.
  • Configure Bindings (optional): you can create a binding (policy, group, or user) to manage the listing and access to applications on a user's My applications page.
  1. Click Submit to save the new application and provider.

Homarr configuration​

Add the following environment variables to your Homarr configuration. Make sure to fill in the Client ID, Client Secret, OIDC Issuer, and OIDC URI from your authentik instance.

AUTH_PROVIDERS="oidc,credentials"
AUTH_OIDC_CLIENT_ID=<Client ID from authentik>
AUTH_OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET=<Client secret from authentik>
AUTH_OIDC_ISSUER=https://authentik.company/application/o/<slug from authentik>
AUTH_OIDC_URI=https://authentik.company/application/o/authorize
AUTH_OIDC_CLIENT_NAME=authentik
OAUTH_ALLOW_DANGEROUS_EMAIL_ACCOUNT_LINKING=true
# Optional: You can add this if you only want to allow auto login via authentik
# AUTH_OIDC_AUTO_LOGIN=true

Restart the Homarr service for the changes to take effect.
