Nextcloud	Integrating Nextcloud with Authelia via OpenID Connect.		2022-05-16T21:57:40+10:00	false		integration parent openid-connect	620	true	true

Tested Versions

• Authelia
  • v4.35.5
• Nextcloud
  • 22.1.0

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://nextcloud.example.com
• Authelia Root URL: https://auth.example.com
• Client ID: nextcloud
• Client Secret: nextcloud_client_secret
