## Tested Versions

* [Authelia]
  * [v4.35.5](https://github.com/authelia/authelia/releases/tag/v4.35.5)
* [Portainer] CE and EE
  * 2.12.2

## Before You Begin

You are required to utilize a unique client id and a unique and random client secret for all [OpenID Connect] relying
parties. You should not use the client secret in this example, you should randomly generate one yourself. You may also
choose to utilize a different client id, it's completely up to you.

This example makes the following assumptions:

* __Application Root URL:__ `https://portainer.example.com`
* __Authelia Root URL:__ `https://auth.example.com`
* __Client ID:__ `portainer`
* __Client Secret:__ `portainer_client_secret`

### Authelia

  secret: portainer_client_secret
  public: false
  authorization_policy: two_factor
  scopes:
    - openid
