## Headers
|
|
|
|
The proxy outpost sets the following user-specific headers:
|
|
|
|
### `X-authentik-username`
|
|
|
|
Example value: `akadmin`
|
|
|
|
The username of the currently logged in user
|
|
|
|
### `X-authentik-groups`
|
|
|
|
Example value: `foo|bar|baz`
|
|
|
|
The groups the user is member of, separated by a pipe
|
|
|
|
### `X-authentik-email`
|
|
|
|
Example value: `root@localhost`
|
|
|
|
The email address of the currently logged in user
|
|
|
|
### `X-authentik-name`
|
|

Example value: `authentik Default Admin`
|
|
|
|
Full name of the current user
|
|
|
|
### `X-authentik-uid`
|
|
|
|
Example value: `900347b8a29876b45ca6f75722635ecfedf0e931c6022e3a29a8aa13fb5516fb`
|
|
|
|
The hashed identifier of the currently logged in user.
|
|
|
|
Besides these user-specific headers, some application specific headers are also set:
|
|
|
|
### `X-authentik-meta-outpost`
|
|
|
|
Example value: `authentik Embedded Outpost`
|
|
|
|
The authentik outpost's name.
|
|
|
|
### `X-authentik-meta-provider`
|
|
|
|
Example value: `test`
|
|
|
|
The authentik provider's name.
|
|
|
|
### `X-authentik-meta-app`
|
|
|
|
Example value: `test`
|
|
|
|
The authentik application's slug.
|
|
|
|
### `X-authentik-meta-version`
|
|
|
|
Example value: `goauthentik.io/outpost/1.2.3`
|
|
|
|
The authentik outpost's version.
|
|
|
|
### `X-Forwarded-Host`
|
|
|
|
:::info
|
|
Only set in proxy mode
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
The original Host header sent by the client. This is set as the `Host` header is set to the host of the configured backend.
|
|
|
|
### Additional headers
|
|
|
|
Additionally, you can set `additionalHeaders` attribute on groups or users to set additional headers:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
additionalHeaders:
|
|
X-test-header: test-value
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## HTTPS
|
|
|
|
The outpost listens on both 9000 for HTTP and 9443 for HTTPS.
|
|
|
|
:::info
|
|
If your upstream host is HTTPS, and you're not using forward auth, you need to access the outpost over HTTPS too.
|

|
## Logging out
|
|
|
|
Login is done automatically when you visit the domain without a valid cookie.
|
|
|
|
When using single-application mode, navigate to `app.domain.tld/outpost.goauthentik.io/sign_out`.
|
|
|
|
When using domain-level mode, navigate to `auth.domain.tld/outpost.goauthentik.io/sign_out`, where auth.domain.tld is the external host configured for the provider.
|
|
|
|
To log out, navigate to `/outpost.goauthentik.io/sign_out`.
|
|
|
|
Starting with authentik 2023.2, when logging out of a provider, all the users sessions within the respective outpost are invalidated.
|
|
|
|
## Allowing unauthenticated requests
|
|
|
|
To allow un-authenticated requests to certain paths/URLs, you can use the _Unauthenticated URLs_ / _Unauthenticated Paths_ field.
|
|
|
|
Each new line is interpreted as a regular expression, and is compiled and checked using the standard Golang regex parser.
|
|
|
|
The behaviour of this field changes depending on which mode you're in.
|
|
|
|
### Proxy and Forward auth (single application)
|
|
|
|
In this mode, the regular expressions are matched against the Request's Path.
|
|
|
|
### Forward auth (domain level)
|
|
|
|
In this mode, the regular expressions are matched against the Request's full URL.
|
|
|
|
## Dynamic backend selection
|
|
|
|
You can configure the backend the proxy should access dynamically via _Scope mappings_. To do so, create a new _Scope mapping_, with a name and scope of your choice. As expression, use this:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
return {
|
|
"ak_proxy": {
|
|
"backend_override": f"http://foo.bar.baz/{request.user.username}"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Afterwards, edit the _Proxy provider_ and add this new mapping. The expression is only evaluated when the user logs into the application.
