Description

I run two instances of Vikunja, one personal and one for a non profit

on the personal instance i use pocketid
on the non profit instance i use authentik

Both instances use the :latest tag on docker (my fault for forgetting to set versions, it was s slip up on my end)

Two days ago the docker images updated and the database was updated so i was not able to reverse the version. Both instances are not able to recognise the settings for OIDC settings

I would like to know what is the current documentation for OIDC because for the life of me i cannot get this thing to work again. There is two sets of instructions on one page, and another page had examples, i am trying to get this to work for multiple hours trying different configuration.

Any guidance would be appreciated.

This is what i have set to now:

auth:
  local:
    enabled: false


  openid:
    enabled: true
    providers:
      - name: authentik
        authurl: "https://sso.domain.org/application/o/vikunja/"
        logouturl: "https://sso.domain.org/application/o/vikunja/end-session/"
        clientid: "<client_ID>"
        clientsecret: "<Client_Secret>"

only change i did in Authentik is setting teh Redirect URIs/Origins to Regex
URL on that end is set to https://vikunja.domain.org/auth/openid/authentik

error that i see in docker:

time=2025-08-20T05:57:03.970Z level=ERROR msg="It looks like your openid configuration is in the wrong format. Please check the docs for the correct format."

v1.0.0-rc1

Check the docs here: https://vikunja.io/docs/openid/

Look for the breaking change in unstable builds.
