# SSO Fix — What I'm Doing & Current State ## Goal Every app's "Sign in with Authentik" was broken. Fix the root cause, make the provisioning idempotent/re-runnable, and move the inline python out of YAML into real files. ## Root cause (found by replaying the OAuth2 flow, not just checking objects exist) Authentik 2026.5.5 added a required **`grant_types`** field on OAuth2 providers. Our provision script never set it → every provider had `grant_types = []` → `/authorize` returns **`invalid_request` "Invalid grant_type for provider"** → **all** apps (grafana/minio/forgejo/argocd) fail login identically. Objects (providers, apps, secrets, flows, redirect_uris) all existed and looked correct, which is why earlier "does it exist" checks passed while SSO was 100% dead. ## Fixes made (committed + pushed to main) 1. **`grant_types: ["authorization_code", "refresh_token"]`** added to provider create + patch. (commit `2461964`) — this is THE fix. 2. **Deprecated `ak_groups` → `groups`** in the custom groups-claim mapping. (commit `2461964`) 3. **Extract python** from the ConfigMap into `k8s/security/iam/scripts/authentik-provision.py`, generated back via kustomize `configMapGenerator` (stable name, `disableNameSuffixHash: true`). (commit `3d8a965`) 4. **App-list idempotency**: `get_or_create` on applications was POSTing (→ 400 "already exists") because the applications LIST applies access-policy filtering — `count` was non-zero but the `results` array was empty for the bootstrap user `akadmin` (not in `homelab-admins`). Added `superuser_full_list=true` to the LIST query. (commit `3d8a965`) 5. **Don't PATCH existing applications**: the applications DETAIL endpoint (`PATCH /applications/{pk}/`) also enforces the access policy and does **not** honor `superuser_full_list`, so it 404s for `akadmin` once the `homelab-admins` binding exists. That 404 aborted the loop before all providers got `grant_types`. Now it's find-or-create only (provider/launch_url are stable). (commit `be2a56c`) Net effect once it runs: the loop completes and patches `grant_types` onto **all four** providers. So far only `grafana`'s provider got patched before each abort — `argocd/forgejo/minio` still `[]`. ## CURRENT BLOCKER (why it hasn't taken effect yet) ArgoCD `iam-jobs` app is **stuck in a sync operation** (started 15:02:15) that is `waiting for completion of hook batch/Job/authentik-provision`. That stale operation targets an older revision and never completes, so: - the updated **ConfigMap is still `OutOfSync`** (live cluster still runs the OLD script), and - new commits (`be2a56c`) can't sync until the stuck op is cleared. My `--subresource status` terminate + job delete didn't fully clear it (no `argocd` CLI available in this shell to run `argocd app terminate-op`). ## To unblock (next action) Clear the stuck operation, then sync to HEAD so the new ConfigMap + fixed hook run: ```bash export KUBECONFIG=~/workplace/homelab/cluster-config/kubeconfig # 1. cancel the stuck operation kubectl -n argocd patch application iam-jobs --type merge --subresource status \ -p '{"status":{"operationState":{"phase":"Terminating"}}}' # 2. delete any lingering hook job kubectl -n iam delete job authentik-provision --ignore-not-found # 3. hard refresh + full sync to HEAD (be2a56c) kubectl -n argocd annotate application iam-jobs argocd.argoproj.io/refresh=hard --overwrite kubectl -n argocd patch application iam-jobs --type merge \ -p '{"operation":{"initiatedBy":{"username":"manual"},"sync":{}}}' ``` If it stays stuck, use the ArgoCD UI (argocd.riotpiao.com) → iam-jobs → **Terminate** the running sync, then **Sync**. (UI login itself needs the SSO fix — use local admin / `argocd` CLI if needed.) ## Verify the fix worked ```bash SPOD=$(kubectl -n iam get pods --no-headers | grep authentik-server | grep Running | awk '{print $1}' | head -1) TOKEN=$(kubectl -n iam get secret authentik-secrets -o jsonpath='{.data.AUTHENTIK_BOOTSTRAP_TOKEN}' | base64 -d) # all four providers must show ['authorization_code','refresh_token']: kubectl -n iam exec $SPOD -c server -- python3 -c " import urllib.request,json r=urllib.request.Request('http://localhost:9000/api/v3/providers/oauth2/?page_size=100',headers={'Authorization':'Bearer $TOKEN'}) [print(p['name'],p.get('grant_types')) for p in json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(r))['results']]" ``` Then in a browser: log into Authentik as `rock`, click each app tile → should land **logged-in** (not an OAuth error page). ## Still TODO after SSO is green (from the approved plan in `homearr.md`) - **B**: MinIO app-side OIDC env in `minio-tenant.yaml` (deployed tenant only sets `_SCOPES`). - **C1**: Homarr landing page (official chart, SSO, Longhorn PVC). - **C2**: Portainer OAuth via Portainer API job. - **D**: `sso-verify` Job that replays the OAuth2 flow per app (would have caught this `grant_types` bug that object-existence checks missed). ## Files changed so far - new `k8s/security/iam/scripts/authentik-provision.py` (the real script) - `k8s/security/iam/authentik-provision-job.yaml` (ConfigMap removed; SA/RBAC/Job kept) - `k8s/security/iam/kustomization.yaml` (`configMapGenerator` + `disableNameSuffixHash`)
