To do this, sign in to GitLab and follow these steps: + + 1. On GitLab, click your avatar on the top-right corner, and select your user **Settings > Applications**. + 1. Fill out the application **Name** and [**Redirect URI**](https://www.vaultproject.io/docs/auth/jwt.html#redirect-uris), + making sure to select the **openid** scope. + 1. Save application. + 1. Copy client ID and secret, or keep the page open for reference. +  + +1. **Enable OIDC auth on Vault:** + + OpenID Connect is not enabled in Vault by default. This needs to be enabled in the terminal. + + Open a terminal session and run the following command to enable the OpenID Connect authentication provider in Vault: + + ```bash + vault auth enable oidc + ``` + + You should see the following output in the terminal: + + ```bash + Success! Enabled oidc auth method at: oidc/ + ``` + +1. **Write the OIDC config:** + + Next, Vault needs to be given the application ID and secret generated by Gitlab. + + In the terminal session, run the following command to give Vault access to the GitLab application you've just created with an OpenID scope. This allows Vault to authenticate through GitLab. + + Replace `your_application_id` and `your_secret` in the example below with the application ID and secret generated for your app: + + ```bash + $ vault write auth/oidc/config \ + oidc_discovery_url="https://gitlab.com" \ + oidc_client_id="your_application_id" \ + oidc_client_secret="your_secret" \ + default_role="demo" \ + bound_issuer="localhost" + ``` + + You should see the following output in the terminal: + + ```bash + Success! Data written to: auth/oidc/config + ``` + +1. **Write the OIDC Role Config:** + + Now that Vault has a GitLab application ID and secret, it needs to know the [**Redirect URIs**](https://www.vaultproject.io/docs/auth/jwt.html#redirect-uris) and scopes given to GitLab during the application creation process. The redirect URIs need to match where your Vault instance is running. The `oidc_scopes` field needs to include the `openid`. Similarly to the previous step, replace `your_application_id` with the generated application ID from GitLab: + + This configuration is saved under the name of the role you are creating. In this case, we are creating a `demo` role. Later, we'll show how you can access this role through the Vault CLI. + + ```bash + vault write auth/oidc/role/demo \ + user_claim="sub" \ + allowed_redirect_uris="http://localhost:8250/oidc/callback,http://127.0.0.1:8200/ui/vault/auth/oidc/oidc/callback" \ + bound_audiences="your_application_id" \ + role_type="oidc" \ + oidc_scopes="openid" \ + policies=demo \ + ttl=1h + ``` + +1. **Sign in to Vault:** + + 1. Go to your Vault UI (example: [http://127.0.0.1:8200/ui/vault/auth?with=oidc](http://127.0.0.1:8200/ui/vault/auth?with=oidc)). + 1. If the `OIDC` method is not currently selected, open the dropdown and select it. + 1. Click the **Sign in With GitLab** button, which will open a modal window: +  + + 1. Click **Authorize** on the modal to allow Vault to sign in through GitLab. This will redirect you back to your Vault UI as a signed-in user. +  + +1. **Sign in using the Vault CLI** (optional): + + Vault also allows you to sign in via their CLI. + + After writing the same configurations from above, you can run the command below in your terminal to sign in with the role configuration created in step 4 above: + + ```bash + vault login -method=oidc port=8250 role=demo + ``` + + Here is a short explaination of what this command does: + + 1. In the **Write the OIDC Role Config** (step 4), we created a role called `demo`. We set `role=demo` so Vault knows which configuration we'd like to login in with. + 1. To set Vault to use the `OIDC` sign-in method, we set `-method=oidc`. + 1. To set the port that GitLab should redirect to, we set `port=8250` or another port number that matches the port given to GitLab when listing [Redirect URIs](https://www.vaultproject.io/docs/auth/jwt.html#redirect-uris). + + Once you run the command above, it will present a link in the terminal. + Click the link in the terminal and a tab will open in the browser confirming you're signed into Vault via OIDC: + +  + + The terminal will output: + + ``` + Success! You are now authenticated. The token information displayed below + is already stored in the token helper. You do NOT need to run "vault login" + again. Future Vault requests will automatically use this token. + ``` |
