Getting started

You need a sooauth account before connecting apps. Auth lives at auth.sooauth.com — separate from this marketing site.

Step 1

Create an account

Go to sign up. Use a real email — verification is required in production.

Step 2

Verify email

Check your inbox for the verification link. Click it — you should see a success message and a link to sign in.

No email? Confirm SMTP is configured on the auth server (operators only).

Step 3

Sign in

Sign in with your email and password. Passkeys and Google/GitHub appear when enabled in admin.

Step 4

Open admin

After sign-in, open Admin panel. Here you manage users, sessions, OAuth clients, social providers, and login page branding.

First-time tip: note the default OAuth client ID and redirect URIs before wiring your app.

Step 5

Connect an app

Next: Connect your app (OIDC). Works with soobserver, Next.js, or any OIDC client.
