## What is Paperless-ngx
> Paperless-ngx is an application that indexes your scanned documents and allows you to easily search for documents and store metadata alongside your documents. It was a fork from paperless-ngx, in turn a fork from the original Paperless, neither of which are maintained any longer.

## Preparation
The following placeholders will be used:
- `paperless.company` is the FQDN of the Paperless-ngx install.
- `authentik.company` is the FQDN of the authentik install.
## authentik Configuration
### Step 1 - OAuth2/OpenID Provider
Create a OAuth2/OpenID Provider (under Applications/Providers) with these settings:
Name : Paperless
Redirect URI: https://paperless.company/accounts/oidc/authentik/login/callback/
### Step 2 - Application
Create an application (under Resources/Applications) with these settings:
Name: Paperless
Slug: paperless
Provider: Paperless
## Paperless Configuration
import Tabs from "@theme/Tabs";
import TabItem from "@theme/TabItem";
<Tabs
defaultValue="docker"
values={[
{label: 'Docker', value: 'docker'},
{label: 'Standalone', value: 'standalone'},
]}>
<TabItem value="docker">
If you have Paperless-ngx setup in Docker, add the following environment variables to your Paperless-ngx compose file:
```yaml
environment:
PAPERLESS_APPS: allauth.socialaccount.providers.openid_connect
PAPERLESS_SOCIALACCOUNT_PROVIDERS: >
{
"openid_connect": {
"APPS": [
{
"provider_id": "authentik",
"name": "Authentik",
"client_id": "<Client ID>",
"secret": "<Client Secret>",
"settings": {
"server_url": "https://authentik.company/application/o/paperless/.well-known/openid-configuration"
}
}
],
"OAUTH_PKCE_ENABLED": "True"
}
}
```
Now restart your container:
`docker compose down && docker compose up -d`
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="standalone">
You need to update your `paperless.conf` configuration file. Paperless will search for this configuration file in the following locations and use the first one it finds:
- The environment variable `PAPERLESS_CONFIGURATION_PATH`
- `/path/to/paperless/paperless.conf`
- `/etc/paperless.conf`
- `/usr/local/etc/paperless.conf`
Edit your `paperless.conf` and add the following:
```ini
PAPERLESS_APPS=allauth.socialaccount.providers.openid_connect
PAPERLESS_SOCIALACCOUNT_PROVIDERS={"openid_connect":{"OAUTH_PKCE_ENABLED":true,"APPS":[{"provider_id":"authentik","name":"Authentik","client_id":"<Client ID>","secret":<Client Secret>","settings":{"server_url":"https://authentik.company/application/o/paperless/.well-known/openid-configuration"}}]}}
```
Now restart your Paperless services using `sudo systemctl restart paperless-*`
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
## Finished
Now you can access Paperless-ngx by logging in with authentik.
To add authentik authentication to an existing user, log in to Paperless with local authentication, click the profile icon in the top-right, click My Profile, then Connect new social account.
