Setup Authentication

Initialize and configure the Bknd authentication system with strategies, JWT, cookies, and roles.

Prerequisites

• Bknd project initialized
• Code-first configuration (auth config is code-only)
• For OAuth: provider credentials (client ID, client secret)

When to Use UI Mode

• Viewing current auth configuration
• Toggling strategies on/off
• Testing auth endpoints via admin panel

UI steps: Admin Panel > Auth > Settings

Note: Full auth configuration requires code mode. UI only shows/toggles existing settings.
