authentik configuration​

To support the integration of FileRise 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 administrator 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.
      • Note the Client ID,Client Secret, and slug values because they will be required later.
      • Set Redirect URI to https://filerise.company/api/auth/auth.php?oidc=callback.
      • Select any available signing key.
    • 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.

  3. Click Submit to save the new application and provider.

FileRise configuration​

  1. Log in to FileRise as an administrator.
  2. Click on your profile icon in the upper right corner, then select Admin Panel.
  3. Open the OIDC Configuration & TOTP section and configure the following settings:
    • OIDC Provider URL: https://authentik.company/application/o/<application_slug>/
    • OIDC Client OpenID: Client ID from authentik.
    • OIDC Client Secret: Client Secret from authentik.
    • OIDC Redirect URI: https://filerise.company/api/auth/auth.php?oidc=callback
  4. Click Save Settings.
