# JWT OmniAuth provider
|
|
|
|
To enable the JWT OmniAuth provider, you must register your application with JWT.
|
|
JWT will provide you with a secret key for you to use.
|
|
|
|
1. On your GitLab server, open the configuration file.
|
|
|
|
For Omnibus GitLab:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo editor /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For installations from source:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
cd /home/git/gitlab
|
|
sudo -u git -H editor config/gitlab.yml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. See [Initial OmniAuth Configuration](../../integration/omniauth.md#initial-omniauth-configuration) for initial settings.
|
|
1. Add the provider configuration.
|
|
|
|
For Omnibus GitLab:
|
|
|
|
```ruby
|
|
gitlab_rails['omniauth_providers'] = [
|
|
{ name: 'jwt',
|
|
args: {
|
|
secret: 'YOUR_APP_SECRET',
|
|
algorithm: 'HS256', # Supported algorithms: 'RS256', 'RS384', 'RS512', 'ES256', 'ES384', 'ES512', 'HS256', 'HS384', 'HS512'
|
|
uid_claim: 'email',
|
|
required_claims: ['name', 'email'],
|
|
info_maps: { name: 'name', email: 'email' },
|
|
auth_url: 'https://example.com/',
|
|
valid_within: 3600 # 1 hour
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For installation from source:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
- { name: 'jwt',
|
|
args: {
|
|
secret: 'YOUR_APP_SECRET',
|
|
algorithm: 'HS256', # Supported algorithms: 'RS256', 'RS384', 'RS512', 'ES256', 'ES384', 'ES512', 'HS256', 'HS384', 'HS512'
|
|
uid_claim: 'email',
|
|
required_claims: ['name', 'email'],
|
|
info_map: { name: 'name', email: 'email' },
|
|
auth_url: 'https://example.com/',
|
|
valid_within: 3600 # 1 hour
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
NOTE: **Note:** For more information on each configuration option refer to
|
|
the [OmniAuth JWT usage documentation](https://github.com/mbleigh/omniauth-jwt#usage).
|
|
|
|
1. Change `YOUR_APP_SECRET` to the client secret and set `auth_url` to your redirect URL.
|
|
1. Save the configuration file.
|
|
1. [Reconfigure][] or [restart GitLab][] for the changes to take effect if you
|
|
installed GitLab via Omnibus or from source respectively.
|
|
|
|
On the sign in page there should now be a JWT icon below the regular sign in form.
|
|
Click the icon to begin the authentication process. JWT will ask the user to
|
|
sign in and authorize the GitLab application. If everything goes well, the user
|
|
will be redirected to GitLab and will be signed in.

<!-- ## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
Include any troubleshooting steps that you can foresee. If you know beforehand what issues
|
|
one might have when setting this up, or when something is changed, or on upgrading, it's
|
|
important to describe those, too. Think of things that may go wrong and include them here.
|
|
This is important to minimize requests for support, and to avoid doc comments with
|
|
questions that you know someone might ask.
|
|
|
|
Each scenario can be a third-level heading, e.g. `### Getting error message X`.
|
|
If you have none to add when creating a doc, leave this section in place
|
|
but commented out to help encourage others to add to it in the future. -->
