Forgejo supports acting as an OAuth2 provider to allow third party applications to access its resources with the user's consent.
## Endpoints
| Endpoint | URL |
| ------------------------ | ----------------------------------- |
| OpenID Connect Discovery | `/.well-known/openid-configuration` |
| Authorization Endpoint | `/login/oauth/authorize` |
| Access Token Endpoint | `/login/oauth/access_token` |
| OpenID Connect UserInfo | `/login/oauth/userinfo` |
| JSON Web Key Set | `/login/oauth/keys` |
## Supported OAuth2 Grants
At the moment Forgejo only supports the [**Authorization Code Grant**](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749#section-1.3.1) standard with additional support of the following extensions:
- [Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE)](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7636)
- [OpenID Connect (OIDC)](https://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-core-1_0.html#CodeFlowAuth)
To use the Authorization Code Grant as a third party application it is required to register a new application via the "Settings" (`/user/settings/applications`) section of the settings. To test or debug you can use the web-tool https://oauthdebugger.com/.
## Scoped Tokens
Forgejo supports scoped access tokens, which allow users to restrict tokens to operate only on selected url routes. Scopes are grouped by high-level API routes, and further refined to the following:
- `read`: `GET` routes
- `write`: `POST`, `PUT`, `PATCH`, and `DELETE` routes (in addition to `GET`)
Forgejo token scopes are as follows:
| Name | Description |
| ----------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --- |
| **(no scope)** | Not supported. A scope is required even for public repositories. |
| **activitypub** | `activitypub` API routes: ActivityPub related operations. |
|     **read:activitypub** | Grants read access for ActivityPub operations. |
|     **write:activitypub** | Grants read/write/delete access for ActivityPub operations. |
| **admin** | `/admin/*` API routes: Site-wide administrative operations (hidden for non-admin accounts). |
|     **read:admin** | Grants read access for admin operations, such as getting cron jobs or registered user emails. |
|     **write:admin** | Grants read/write/delete access for admin operations, such as running cron jobs or updating user accounts. | |
| **issue** | `issues/*`, `labels/*`, `milestones/*` API routes: Issue-related operations. |
|     **read:issue** | Grants read access for issues operations, such as getting issue comments, issue attachments, and milestones. |
|     **write:issue** | Grants read/write/delete access for issues operations, such as posting or editing an issue comment or attachment, and updating milestones. |
| **misc** | miscellaneous and settings top-level API routes. |
|     **read:misc** | Grants read access to miscellaneous operations, such as getting label and gitignore templates. |
|     **write:misc** | Grants read/write/delete access to miscellaneous operations, such as markup utility operations. |
| **notification** | `notification/*` API routes: user notification operations. |
|     **read:notification** | Grants read access to user notifications, such as which notifications users are subscribed to and read new notifications. |
|     **write:notification** | Grants read/write/delete access to user notifications, such as marking notifications as read. |
| **organization** | `orgs/*` and `teams/*` API routes: Organization and team management operations. |
|     **read:organization** | Grants read access to org and team status, such as listing all orgs a user has visibility to, teams, and team members. |
|     **write:organization** | Grants read/write/delete access to org and team status, such as creating and updating teams and updating org settings. |
| **package** | `/packages/*` API routes: Packages operations |
|     **read:package** | Grants read access to package operations, such as reading and downloading available packages. |
|     **write:package** | Grants read/write/delete access to package operations. Currently the same as `read:package`. |
| **repository** | `/repos/*` API routes except `/repos/issues/*`: Repository file, pull-request, and release operations. |
|     **read:repository** | Grants read access to repository operations, such as getting repository files, releases, collaborators. |
|     **write:repository** | Grants read/write/delete access to repository operations, such as getting updating repository files, creating pull requests, updating collaborators. |
| **user** | `/user/*` and `/users/*` API routes: User-related operations. |
|     **read:user** | Grants read access to user operations, such as getting user repo subscriptions and user settings. |
|     **write:user** | Grants read/write/delete access to user operations, such as updating user repo subscriptions, followed users, and user settings. |
## Client types
Forgejo supports both confidential and public client types, [as defined by RFC 6749](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6749#section-2.1).
For public clients, a redirect URI of a loopback IP address such as `http://127.0.0.1/` allows any port. Avoid using `localhost`, [as recommended by RFC 8252](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8252#section-8.3).
## Examples
### Confidential client
**Note:** This example does not use PKCE.
1. Redirect the user to the authorization endpoint in order to get their consent for accessing the resources:
```curl
https://[YOUR-FORGEJO-URL]/login/oauth/authorize?client_id=CLIENT_ID&redirect_uri=REDIRECT_URI&response_type=code&state=STATE
```
The `CLIENT_ID` can be obtained by registering an application in the settings. The `STATE` is a random string that will be sent back to your application after the user authorizes. The `state` parameter is optional but should be used to prevent CSRF attacks.
The user will now be asked to authorize your application. If they authorize it, the user will be redirected to the `REDIRECT_URL`, for example:
```curl
https://[REDIRECT_URI]?code=RETURNED_CODE&state=STATE
```
2. Using the provided `code` from the redirect, you can request a new application and refresh token. The access token endpoint accepts POST requests with `application/json` and `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` body, for example:
```curl
POST https://[YOUR-FORGEJO-URL]/login/oauth/access_token
```
```json
{
"client_id": "YOUR_CLIENT_ID",
"client_secret": "YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET",
"code": "RETURNED_CODE",
"grant_type": "authorization_code",
"redirect_uri": "REDIRECT_URI"
}
```
Response:
```json
{
"access_token": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzUxMiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJnbnQiOjIsInR0IjowLCJleHAiOjE1NTUxNzk5MTIsImlhdCI6MTU1NTE3NjMxMn0.0-iFsAwBtxuckA0sNZ6QpBQmywVPz129u75vOM7wPJecw5wqGyBkmstfJHAjEOqrAf_V5Z-1QYeCh_Cz4RiKug",
"token_type": "bearer",
"expires_in": 3600,
"refresh_token": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzUxMiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJnbnQiOjIsInR0IjoxLCJjbnQiOjEsImV4cCI6MTU1NzgwNDMxMiwiaWF0IjoxNTU1MTc2MzEyfQ.S_HZQBy4q9r5SEzNGNIoFClT43HPNDbUdHH-GYNYYdkRfft6XptJBkUQscZsGxOW975Yk6RbgtGvq1nkEcklOw"
}
```
The `CLIENT_SECRET` is the unique secret code generated for this application. Please note that the secret will only be visible after you created/registered the application with Forgejo and cannot be recovered. If you lose the secret, you must regenerate the secret via the application's settings.
The `REDIRECT_URI` in the `access_token` request must match the `REDIRECT_URI` in the `authorize` request.
3. Use the `access_token` to make API requests to access the user's resources.
### Public client (PKCE)
PKCE (Proof Key for Code Exchange) is an extension to the OAuth flow which allows for a secure credential exchange without the requirement to provide a client secret.
**Note**: Please ensure you have registered your OAuth application as a public client.
To achieve this, you have to provide a `code_verifier` for every authorization request. A `code_verifier` has to be a random string with a minimum length of 43 characters and a maximum length of 128 characters. It can contain alphanumeric characters as well as the characters `-`, `.`, `_` and `~`.
Using this `code_verifier` string, a new one called `code_challenge` is created by using one of two methods:
- If you have the required functionality on your client, set `code_challenge` to be a URL-safe base64-encoded string of the SHA256 hash of `code_verifier`. In that case, your `code_challenge_method` becomes `S256`.
- If you are unable to do so, you can provide your `code_verifier` as a plain string to `code_challenge`. Then you have to set your `code_challenge_method` as `plain`.
After you have generated this values, you can continue with your request.
1. Redirect the user to the authorization endpoint in order to get their consent for accessing the resources:
```curl
https://[YOUR-FORGEJO-URL]/login/oauth/authorize?client_id=CLIENT_ID&redirect_uri=REDIRECT_URI&response_type=code&code_challenge_method=CODE_CHALLENGE_METHOD&code_challenge=CODE_CHALLENGE&state=STATE
```
The `CLIENT_ID` can be obtained by registering an application in the settings. The `STATE` is a random string that will be sent back to your application after the user authorizes. The `state` parameter is optional, but should be used to prevent CSRF attacks.

The user will now be asked to authorize your application. If they authorize it, the user will be redirected to the `REDIRECT_URL`, for example:
```curl
https://[REDIRECT_URI]?code=RETURNED_CODE&state=STATE
```
2. Using the provided `code` from the redirect, you can request a new application and refresh token. The access token endpoint accepts POST requests with `application/json` and `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` body, for example:
```curl
POST https://[YOUR-FORGEJO-URL]/login/oauth/access_token
```
```json
{
"client_id": "YOUR_CLIENT_ID",
"code": "RETURNED_CODE",
"grant_type": "authorization_code",
"redirect_uri": "REDIRECT_URI",
"code_verifier": "CODE_VERIFIER"
}
```
Response:
```json
