Miscellaneous
Here are the main customizable options in Authelia.
Host & Port
optional: true
Defines the address and port to listen on.
host: 0.0.0.0
port: 9091
Note: If utilising an IPv6 literal address it must be enclosed by square brackets and quoted:
host: "[fd00:1111:2222:3333::1]"
TLS
optional: true
Authelia can use TLS. Provide the certificate and the key with the following configuration options:
tls_key: /config/ssl/key.pem
tls_cert: /config/ssl/cert.pem
Certificates Directory
optional: true
This option defines the location of additional certificates to load into the trust chain specifically for Authelia.
This currently affects both the SMTP notifier and the LDAP authentication backend. The certificates should all be in the
PEM format and end with the extension .pem or .crt. You can either add the individual certificates public key
or the CA public key which signed them (don't add the private key).
Log
Log level
optional: true
Defines the level of logs used by Authelia. This level can be set to
trace, debug or info. When setting log_level to trace, you will
generate a large amount of log entries and expose the /debug/vars and
/debug/pprof/ endpoints which should not be enabled in production.
log_level: debug
Log format
optional: true
Defines the format of the logs written by Authelia.
This format can be set to json or text.
log_format: json
JSON format
{"level":"info","msg":"Logging severity set to info","time":"2020-01-01T00:00:00+11:00"}
{"level":"info","msg":"Authelia is listening for non-TLS connections on 0.0.0.0:9091","time":"2020-01-01T00:00:00+11:00"}
Text format
time="2020-01-01T00:00:00+11:00" level=info msg="Logging severity set to info"
time="2020-01-01T00:00:00+11:00" level=info msg="Authelia is listening for non-TLS connections on 0.0.0.0:9091"
Log file path
optional: true
Logs can be stored in a file when file path is provided. Otherwise logs
are written to standard output. When setting the log_level to debug or
trace this will generate large amount of log entries.
Administrators will need to ensure that they rotate and/or truncate the
logs over time to prevent significant long-term disk usage.
log_file_path: /config/authelia.log
JWT Secret
optional: false
Defines the secret used to craft JWT tokens leveraged by the identity verification process. This can also be defined using a secret.
jwt_secret: v3ry_important_s3cr3t
Default redirection URL
optional: true
The default redirection URL is the URL where users are redirected when Authelia cannot detect the target URL where the user was heading.
In a normal authentication workflow, a user tries to access a website and she gets redirected to the sign-in portal in order to authenticate. Since the user initially targeted a website, the portal knows where the user was heading and can redirect her after the authentication process. However, when a user visits the sign in portal directly, the portal considers the targeted website is the portal. In that case and if the default redirection URL is configured, the user is redirected to that URL. If not defined, the user is not redirected after authentication.
