OpenID Connect 1.0 Support
The OpenID Connect (OIDC) 1.0 feature allows you to enable the OpenID scope, which extends OAuth 2.0 by adding an authentication layer on top of the existing authorization framework.
When the OpenID scope is enabled, the OAuth Server follows the OpenID Connect 1.0 flow and issues an ID Token along with the Access Token from the token endpoint.
ID Token Overview
- The ID Token is a JSON Web Token (JWT) containing user identity information, such as user ID, email, and other claims.
- The client application is responsible for verifying the JWT’s signature, issuer, and audience before using the information.
- For details on verifying JWTs, refer to the JWT Support section of this documentation.
Plugin Configuration
To enable or disable OpenID Connect support:
- Navigate to the Advanced Settings tab.
- Under the OpenID Connect section, locate the toggle switch.
- Turn the toggle ON to enable OIDC support, or OFF to disable it.
