Integrate with Oracle Cloud

Support level: Community

What is Oracle Cloud?​

Oracle Cloud is a cloud platform that provides infrastructure and platform services for running applications, storing data, and managing cloud resources.

Preparation​

The following placeholders are used in this guide:

  • authentik.company is the FQDN of the authentik installation.
  • tenant.identity.oraclecloud.com is the FQDN of your Oracle Cloud identity domain base URL.
info

This documentation lists only the settings that you need to change from their default values. Be aware that any changes other than those explicitly mentioned in this guide could cause issues accessing your application.

authentik configuration​

Redirect URI changes in authentik 2026.5

In authentik versions earlier than 2026.5, all Redirect URIs are automatically treated as Authorization type. If you are using one of these older authentik versions, add only the Authorization URL to your Redirect URIs and do not configure a Post Logout URI.

To support the integration of Oracle Cloud with authentik, you need to create an application/provider pair in authentik.

Create an application and provider​

  1. Log in to authentik as an administrator and open the authentik Admin interface.
  2. Navigate to Applications > Applications and click New Application to open the application wizard.
    • Application: provide a descriptive name, an optional group for the type of application, the policy engine mode, and optional UI settings.
      • Note the application Slug, because it is required later.
      • Optionally set the Launch URL to https://cloud.oracle.com?tenant=<tenant_name>, where <tenant_name> is the tenant name used when logging in through the Oracle Cloud sign-in page.
    • Choose a Provider type: select OAuth2/OpenID Connect as the provider type.
    • Configure the Provider: provide a name (or accept the auto-provided name), the authorization flow to use for this provider, and the following required configurations.
      • Note the Client ID and Client Secret values because they are required later.
      • Add a Redirect URI of type Strict Authorization as https://tenant.identity.oraclecloud.com/oauth2/v1/social/callback.
      • Select any available signing key.
    • Configure Bindings (optional): you can create a binding (policy, group, or user) to manage the listing and access to applications on a user's Application Dashboard page.
  3. Click Submit to save the new application and provider.

Oracle Cloud configuration​

To integrate authentik with Oracle Cloud, configure authentik as a social identity provider in your Oracle Cloud identity domain.

Configure the identity provider​

  1. Log in to the Oracle Cloud dashboard as an administrator. Click the hamburger menu in the top-left corner, then select Identity & Security > Domains.
  2. Select your identity domain, click the Federation tab, and under Actions, select Add Social IdP.
  3. Set the following required information:
    • Type: OpenID Connect
    • Name: authentik
    • Client ID: set the client ID from authentik.
    • Client Secret: set the client secret from authentik.
    • Discovery service URL: https://authentik.company/application/o/<application_slug>/.well-known/openid-configuration
    • Enable Just-In-Time (JIT) provisioning: toggle this on.
  4. Click Add.
  5. Click the three dots in the row of the identity provider that was just created, select Activate IdP, read the confirmation message, and click Activate IdP again.

Add the provider to an IdP policy​

  1. Log in to the Oracle Cloud dashboard as an administrator. Click the hamburger menu in the top-left corner, then select Identity & Security > Domains.
  2. Select your identity domain. On the Federation tab, scroll to Identity provider policies. If your domain shows the current navigation instead, open Security > IdP policies.
  3. Select your identity provider policy, or select the default policy named Default Identity Provider Policy.
  4. Edit the rule that should offer authentik sign-in, and under Assign identity providers, add authentik.
  5. Save the rule.

Configuration verification​

To confirm that authentik is properly configured with Oracle Cloud, open the Oracle Cloud integration from the authentik User interface. On the Oracle Cloud login page, click authentik. After you successfully log in with authentik, Oracle Cloud signs you in.
