📄 Description

Changelog Entry

Added OAuth2.1 Static authentication option for static client_id and client_secret for MCP servers

Description

I needed to add some MCP servers to an Open WebUI instance, but these MCP servers required static oauth client data (client_id and client_secret). This was not possible with the current version of Open WebUI. I developed an extra authentication option where these fields can be entered by the end user, and those being used to register the client.

Added

Added OAuth 2.1 - Static auth type for MCP servers. See screenshot below in the Screenshots section


Additional Information

I was doubting to include these options directly in the OAuth 2.1 aut htype, but deliberately decided to make it a separate option to reduce possible confusion since a lot of MCPs actually do accept the dynamic OAuth data.
