Tested Versions

Before You Begin

Common Notes

  1. You are required to utilize a unique client id for every client.
  2. The client id on this page is merely an example and you can theoretically use any alphanumeric string.
  3. You should not use the client secret in this example, We strongly recommend reading the Generating Client Secrets guide instead.

Assumptions

This example makes the following assumptions:

  • Application Root URL: https://bookstack.example.com
  • Authelia Root URL: https://auth.example.com
  • Client ID: bookstack
  • Client Secret: bookstack_client_secret

Important Note: BookStack does not properly URL encode the secret per RFC6749 Appendix B at the time this article was last modified (noted at the bottom). This means you'll either have to use only alphanumeric characters for the secret or URL encode the secret yourself.

Configuration

Application

To configure BookStack to utilize Authelia as an OpenID Connect Provider:

  1. Edit your .env file

    1. AUTH_METHOD: oidc

    3. OIDC_DISPLAY_NAME_CLAIMS: name

    5. OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET: bookstack_client_secret
    6. OIDC_ISSUER: https://auth.example.com
