This guide is a part of the [NetBird Self-hosting Guide](/getting-started/self-hosting) and explains how to integrate **self-hosted** NetBird with [Auth0](https://auth0.com/).
|
|
|
|
Auth0 is a flexible, drop-in solution to add authentication and authorization services to your applications.
|
|
It is a 3rd party managed service and can't be self-hosted. Auth0 is the right choice if you don't want to manage an Identity Provider (IDP)
|
|
instance on your own.
|
|
|
|
:::tip self-hosted idp
|
|
If you prefer to have full control over authentication and authorization of your NetBird network, there are good
|
|
self-hosted alternatives to the managed Auth0 service like [Keycloak](/integrations/identity-providers/self-hosted/using-netbird-with-keycloak).
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
### Step 1: Create Auth0 account
|
|
To create an Auth0 account, sign up at [https://auth0.com](https://auth0.com/).
|
|
|
|
There are five properties of the **`setup.env`** file that we will configure in this guide:
|
|
- `NETBIRD_AUTH_CLIENT_ID`
|
|
- `NETBIRD_AUTH_OIDC_CONFIGURATION_ENDPOINT`
|
|
- `NETBIRD_USE_AUTH0`
|
|
- `NETBIRD_AUTH_AUDIENCE`
|
|
- `NETBIRD_AUTH_DEVICE_AUTH_CLIENT_ID` (Optional)
|
|
|
|
### Step 2: Create and configure Auth0 application
|
|
|
|
This Auth0 application will be used to authorize access to NetBird Dashboard (Web UI).
|
|
|
|
- Follow the steps in the [Auth0 React SDK Guide](https://auth0.com/docs/quickstart/spa/react/01-login#configure-auth0)
|
|
up until "Install the Auth0 React SDK".
|
|
- Use **`https://YOUR DOMAIN`** as: `Allowed Callback URLs`, `Allowed Logout URLs`, `Allowed Web Origins`, `Allowed Origins (CORS)`
|
|
:::caution
|
|
Make sure that **`Token Endpoint Authentication Method`** is set to **`None`**.
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
- Use **`Client ID`** to set ```NETBIRD_AUTH_CLIENT_ID``` property in the `setup.env` file.
|
|
- Use **`Domain`** to configure ```NETBIRD_AUTH_OIDC_CONFIGURATION_ENDPOINT``` property in the `setup.env` file like so:
|
|
```
|
|
https://<DOMAIN>/.well-known/openid-configuration
|
|
```
|
|
:::caution
|
|
Double-check if the endpoint returns a JSON response by calling it from your browser.
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
### Step 3: Create and configure Auth0 API
|
|
|
|
This Auth0 API will be used to access NetBird Management Service API.
|
|
|
|
- Follow the steps in the [Auth0 Create An API](https://auth0.com/docs/quickstart/backend/golang#create-an-api).
|
|
- Use API **`Identifier`** to set ```NETBIRD_AUTH_AUDIENCE``` property in the `setup.env` file.
|
|
- Set ```NETBIRD_USE_AUTH0``` to `true`in the `setup.env` file.
|
|
|
|
### Step 4: Enable Interactive SSO Login (Optional)
|
|
|
|
The [Interactive SSO Login feature](/getting-started/installation#running-netbird-with-sso-login) allows for machine
|
|
authorization with your Identity Provider. This feature can be used as an alternative to [setup keys](/overview/setup-keys)
|
|
and is optional.
|
|
|
|
You can enable it by following these steps:
|
|
- Log in to your Auth0 account https://manage.auth0.com/
|
|
- Go to `Applications` (left-hand menu)
|
|
- Click `Create Application` button (top right)
|
|
- Fill in the form with the following values:
|
|
- Name: `Interactive Login`
|
|
- Application type: `Native`
|
|
- Click `Create`
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
- Click `Settings` tab
|
|
- Copy **`Client ID`** to `NETBIRD_AUTH_DEVICE_AUTH_CLIENT_ID` in the `setup.env` file
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
- Scroll down to the `Advanced Settings` section
|
|
- Enable **`Device Code`**
|
|
- Click `Save Changes`
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Step 4: Continue with the self-hosting guide
|
|
You can now continue with the [NetBird Self-hosting Guide](/getting-started/self-hosting#step-3-configure-identity-provider). |
