Hi, recently I started using authelia, and can’t understand how I need to use it, and how do I share it with others

Before I had bitwarden, kept all my passwords there, and used the passwords to login to every service. Also in every service I had 2FA and/or FIDO.

But now I have authelia, and I’m trying to understand where should be the main password, and what services do I bypass, and etc

And the most important, how do I explain people how to use it, do I create them authelia credentials and send, or how?

Thank you

Quick heads up, Nextcloud works perfectly fine behind an auth provider. I am using it behind authentik.

I had issues connecting to Nextcloud from mobile clients when using Authelia, they didn’t like it, but if there’s a workaround for that that’s great

You need to use authelia’s oidc, and your nextcloud app will be able to store this session for everything it needs

Goes to show I don’t know much about SSO I suppose. Time to do some more research

Also, it’s common practice to do rules, so ask 2fa on myserver.host, but don’t ask anything on myserver.host/api
