Configuration

Authelia

The following YAML configuration is an example Authelia client configuration for use with PowerDNS Admin which will operate with the application example:

identity_providers:
  oidc:
    ## The other portions of the mandatory OpenID Connect 1.0 configuration go here.
    ## See: https://www.authelia.com/c/oidc
    clients:
      - client_id: 'powerdns'
        client_name: 'PowerDNS Admin'
        client_secret: '$pbkdf2-sha512$310000$c8p78n7pUMln0jzvd4aK4Q$JNRBzwAo0ek5qKn50cFzzvE9RXV88h1wJn5KGiHrD0YKtZaR/nCb2CJPOsKaPK0hjf.9yHxzQGZziziccp6Yng'  # The digest of 'insecure_secret'.
        public: false
        authorization_policy: 'two_factor'
        redirect_uris:
          - 'https://powerdns.{{< sitevar name="domain" nojs="example.com" >}}/oidc/authorized'
        scopes:
          - 'openid'
          - 'profile'
          - 'groups'
          - 'email'
        response_types:
          - 'code'
        grant_types:
          - 'authorization_code'
        userinfo_signed_response_alg: 'none'

Application

To configure PowerDNS Admin to utilize Authelia as an OpenID Connect 1.0 Provider:

1. Visit Settings
2. Visit Authentication
3. Visit OpenID Connect OAuth
4. Set the following values:
   1. Enable Enable OpenID Connect OAuth
   2. Client ID: powerdns
   3. Client Secret: insecure_secret
   4. Scopes: openid profile groups email
   5. API URL: https://{{< sitevar name="subdomain-authelia" nojs="auth" >}}.{{< sitevar name="domain" nojs="example.com" >}}/api/oidc/userinfo
   6. Enable Enable OIDC OAuth Auto-Configurationh
   7. Metadata URL: https://{{< sitevar name="subdomain-authelia" nojs="auth" >}}.{{< sitevar name="domain" nojs="example.com" >}}/.well-known/openid-configuration
   8. Username: preferred_username
   9. Email: email
   10. Firstname: preferred_username
   11. Last Name: name
   12. Autoprovision Account Name property: preferred_username
   13. Autoprovision Account Description property : name

{{< callout context="note" title="Note" icon="outline/info-circle" >}} Currently, Authelia only supports the preferred_username and name claims under the profile scope. However PowerDNS-Admin only supports a FirstName LastName system, where the two are separate, instead of using the name claim to fetch the full name. This means that the names in the system are incorrect. See issue #4338. {{< /callout >}}
