# 🔐 OIDC Single Sign-On Enable Single Sign-On (SSO) with providers like Authentik, Keycloak, Okta, and Azure AD. ## 🚀 Quick Start 1. **Configure Provider**: Create an OIDC application in your IdP. - **Redirect URI**: `https:///api/oidc//callback` - **Scopes**: `openid`, `profile`, `email` 2. **Enable in Pulse**: Go to **Settings → Security → Single Sign-On**. 3. **Enter Details**: - **Issuer URL**: The base URL of your IdP (e.g., `https://auth.example.com/application/o/pulse/`). - **Client ID & Secret**: From your IdP. 4. **Save**: The login page will now show your configured SSO provider button(s). > **Tip**: To hide the username/password form and only show the SSO button, set `PULSE_AUTH_HIDE_LOCAL_LOGIN=true` in your environment. You can still access the local login by appending `?show_local=true` to the URL (e.g., `https://your-pulse-instance/?show_local=true`). ## ⚙️ Configuration | Setting | Description | | :--- | :--- | | **Issuer URL** | The OIDC provider's issuer URL. Must match the `iss` claim in tokens. | | **Client ID** | The application ID from your provider. | | **Client Secret** | The application secret. | | **Redirect URL** | Auto-detected. Override only if running behind a complex proxy setup. | | **Scopes** | Space-separated scopes. Default: `openid profile email`. | | **Claim Mapping** | Map `email`, `username`, and `groups` to specific token claims. | > **Note**: Setting `OIDC_*` environment variables locks those fields in the UI. See [CONFIGURATION.md](CONFIGURATION.md) for the full list of overrides. ### Access Control Restrict access to specific users or groups: - **Allowed Groups**: Only users in these groups can login. Requires the `groups` scope/claim. - **Allowed Domains**: Restrict to specific email domains (e.g., `example.com`). - **Allowed Emails**: Allow specific email addresses. ### Group-to-Role Mapping (Pro and Above) Automatically assign Pulse roles based on OIDC group membership. When a user logs in, Pulse checks their groups claim and assigns the corresponding roles. **Configuration:** Group-role mappings are configured per SSO provider through the UI (or the SSO provider API for automated setup) — there is no environment-variable override. Go to **Settings → Security → Single Sign-On**, edit the provider, and populate **Group Role Mappings** with entries like: - `oidc-admins` → `admin` - `oidc-operators` → `operator` - `oidc-viewers` → `viewer` The mappings persist on the provider record as a `groupRoleMappings` JSON field. Provider-level config (including this field) can be PUT through the SSO provider API for automated setup. **How it works:** - On each login, Pulse reads the user's groups from the configured groups claim. - For each group that matches a mapping, the corresponding role is assigned. - Multiple groups can map to multiple roles (user gets all matching roles). - Role assignments are updated on every login to reflect current group membership. - Role changes are logged to the audit log for compliance tracking. **Example:** If a user has groups `["oidc-admins", "developers"]` and you have mappings: - `oidc-admins` → `admin` - `developers` → `operator` The user will be assigned both `admin` and `operator` roles. > **Note**: Ensure your IdP includes the `groups` scope and that the groups claim is properly configured. Some providers use `groups`, others use `roles` or custom claims. ### Long-Lived Sessions with `offline_access` For persistent sessions that don't require frequent re-authentication: 1. **Add `offline_access` scope**: Include `offline_access` in your OIDC scopes (e.g., `openid profile email offline_access`). 2. **Configure your IdP**: Ensure your identity provider issues refresh tokens when `offline_access` is requested. **How it works:** - When you login with `offline_access`, Pulse stores the refresh token alongside your session. - When your access token expires, Pulse automatically refreshes it using the stored refresh token. - Your session remains valid as long as the refresh token is valid (typically 30-90 days depending on your IdP). - If the IdP revokes access (user disabled, token revoked), Pulse detects this on the next refresh attempt and logs you out. **Security considerations:** - Refresh tokens are stored encrypted at rest. - If the IdP configuration changes, existing sessions with mismatched issuers are automatically invalidated. - Failed refresh attempts immediately invalidate the session. ## 📚 Provider Examples ### Authentik - **Type**: OAuth2/OpenID (Confidential) - **Redirect URI**: `https://pulse.example.com/api/oidc//callback` - **Signing Key**: Must use **RS256** (create a certificate/key pair if needed). - **Issuer URL**: `https://auth.example.com/application/o/pulse/` ### Keycloak - **Client ID**: `pulse` - **Access Type**: Confidential - **Valid Redirect URIs**: `https://pulse.example.com/api/oidc//callback` - **Issuer URL**: `https://keycloak.example.com/realms/myrealm` ### Azure AD - **Redirect URI**: `https://pulse.example.com/api/oidc//callback` (Web) - **Issuer URL**: `https://login.microsoftonline.com//v2.0` - **Note**: Enable "ID tokens" in Authentication settings. ## 🔧 Troubleshooting | Issue | Solution | | :--- | :--- | | **`invalid_id_token`** | Issuer URL mismatch. Check logs (`LOG_LEVEL=debug`) to see the expected vs. received issuer. | | **`unexpected signature algorithm "HS256"`** | Your IdP is signing with HS256. Configure it to use **RS256**. | | **Redirect Loop** | Check `X-Forwarded-Proto` header (must be `https`) and cookie settings. | | **Self-Signed Certs** | Set the **CA Bundle** field on the SSO provider to a host path readable by Pulse (e.g. `/etc/ssl/certs/oidc-ca.pem` mounted into the container). The field is stored on the provider record as `oidc.caBundle`; there is no `OIDC_CA_BUNDLE` env var. | ### Debugging Enable debug logs to trace the OIDC flow: ```bash export LOG_LEVEL=debug # Restart Pulse ``` Logs will show discovery, token exchange, and claim parsing details.
