# Generic OIDC authentication
|
||||
|
||||
Use this guide for **ThothII's own login**, normally `shell.mode: full` on an
|
||||
autonomous server. It is not the integration procedure for an already logged-in
|
||||
Omics user. That deployment uses [embedded/upstream](authentication-upstream.md),
|
||||
even when Omics's identity provider is Authentik.
|
||||
|
||||
OIDC mode supports a standards-based provider. The browser flow is generic: Authorization Code,
|
||||
PKCE S256, state, nonce, issuer/signature/audience/expiry validation, and the fixed callback
|
||||
`<publicUrl>/api/auth/oidc/callback`. The browser and API must use the same origin; configure the
|
||||
reverse proxy to preserve that public origin and callback path.
|
||||
|
||||
`publicUrl` is the public origin, without an application subpath. The current
|
||||
full OIDC browser entry and callback use `/api/auth/oidc/login` and
|
||||
`/api/auth/oidc/callback`; arbitrary prefixed OIDC hosting is not implemented by
|
||||
selecting a different `backendBaseUrl`.

## Browser login and logout
|
||||
|
||||
ThothII redirects the browser to the provider and creates its own opaque session
|
||||
after validating the callback. An existing provider SSO session may avoid another
|
||||
password prompt, but this remains a distinct ThothII login/session, unlike Omics
|
||||
upstream. Full's name menu logs out of ThothII only. It does not revoke the
|
||||
provider session or log out other applications, so a subsequent login can return
|
||||
immediately through SSO. No provider token is placed in the UI adapter or browser
|
||||
storage. See the [manual acceptance matrix](../testing/authentication-manual-acceptance.md).
