    This was implemented a while ago - https://git.cloudron.io/packages/nextcloud-app/-/tree/oidc . We have to bite the bullet and push the migration . Nextcloud updates like this always worry me, it's so much work (mostly support) 😕 100% sure something breaks

      I tried looking up which oidc plugin for Nextcloud I last gave a try, but I was unable to find which one it was.

      In the end I needed to disable the plugin as Nextcloud kept constantly logging me out of all my sessions. So before you roll the update out I would recommend to make a long term test with all the apps that are part of the Nextcloud eco system (Desktop apps, apps on mobile for Nextcloud itself, but also Talk, etc).

        @girish Is this integrated in the package yet? I'm currently using the social login plugin which works more or less but I'd love to migrate

          @fbartels I think we use https://github.com/nextcloud/user_oidc . You are right about the testing, this is why it's not merged yet . There's too many things to test ...

          @andreasdueren the work has been done but it's not integrated yet.

            It sure is a lot of testing for stuff that is not supported by nextcloud itself... 😞

            I myself use the nextcloud mobile app for some things. No idea how it works with OIDC...

              @girish said in OIDC for Nextcloud?:

              Perhaps create a new unstable experimental Nexcloud-OIDC package that has OIDC baked in and let us all do the testing? 🙂

                @jdaviescoates yes, absolutely, that is the plan . To enable both OIDC and LDAP in the same package and allow willing users to test OIDC by setting some flag somewhere.

                  @girish I'm about to set up a new NC instance and would love to have this integrated sooner than later so I can onboard people with it directly instead of having to migrate them later on. 🙂

                    @girish is there maybe a way to enable OIDC in the package but leave it disabled for people to enable it manually?

                      @andreasdueren the work is there in this branch - https://git.cloudron.io/packages/nextcloud-app/-/tree/oidc but we haven't tested it. It will take some time to test and publish it. Will try to get it out next week.

                            @andreasdueren this is pushed as unstable now.

                            It will be in unstable for a while since I am on/off because am traveling for FOSDEM.

                              Edit: Is there a way to pass Full name and E-Mail via OpenID? That's something I had been struggling with with my other setup as well.

                                  @girish This may be a compatibility issue with my preexisting openID plugin. Testing.

                                    Currently getting this. It's a pretty fresh installation so not sure what's going on yet.

                                      @andreasdueren if we take that error at face value, it's unable to connect to my.domain.com . Can you check from web terminal of nextcloud, if you are able to curl https://my.domain.com/.well-known/openid-configuration ?

                                      Also, do other oidc apps work?

                                        @Joseph curl works. So does oidc on another app.

                                          @andreasdueren can you also check if you can curl the openid-configuration from web terminal of nextcloud? do you see any errors in nextcloud logs? everything looks correct otherwise...
