Using Casdoor for authentication in Grafana
Grafana supports authentication via Oauth. Therefore it is extremely easy for users to use casdoor to log in in Grafana. Only several steps and simple configurations can achieve that.
Here is a tutorial to use Casdoor for authentication in Grafana. Before you proceed, please ensure that you have grafana installed and running.
Step 1 Create an app for grafana in Casdoor
Here is an example of creating an app in Casdoor
Please copy the client secret and client id for the next step.
Please add the callback url of grafana. By default, grafana's oauth callback is /login/generic_oauth
. So please concatenate this url correctly.
Step 2: Modify the configuration of grafana
By default the configuration file for oauth locates at conf/defaults.ini
in the workdir of grafana.
Please find the section auth.generic_oauth
and modify the following field:
[auth.generic_oauth]
name = Casdoor
icon = signin
enabled = true
allow_sign_up = true
client_id = <client id in previous step>
client_secret = <client secret in previous step>
auth_url = <endpoint of casdoor>/login/oauth/authorize
token_url = <endpoint of casdoor>/api/login/oauth/access_token
If you don't want HTTPS enabled for casdoor, please also set tls_skip_verify_insecure = true
Step3: See whether it works
Shutdown grafana and restart it.
Go to see the login page, you are supposed to see something like this
