Grafana OAuthentication Guide Configure Google OAuth2 Authentication 300

Configure Google OAuth2 authentication

To enable Google OAuth2 you must register your application with Google. Google will generate a client ID and secret key for you to use.

Create Google OAuth keys

First, you need to create a Google OAuth Client:

  1. Go to https://console.developers.google.com/apis/credentials.
  2. Click Create Credentials, then click OAuth Client ID in the drop-down menu
  3. Enter the following:
  4. Click Create
  5. Copy the Client ID and Client Secret from the 'OAuth Client' modal

Enable Google OAuth in Grafana

Specify the Client ID and Secret in the [Grafana configuration file]({{< relref "../../../configure-grafana/#config-file-locations" >}}). For example:

[auth.google]
enabled = true
client_id = CLIENT_ID
client_secret = CLIENT_SECRET
scopes = https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email
auth_url = https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth
token_url = https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token
allowed_domains = mycompany.com mycompany.org
allow_sign_up = true

You may have to set the root_url option of [server] for the callback URL to be correct. For example in case you are serving Grafana behind a proxy.

Restart the Grafana back-end. You should now see a Google login button on the login page. You can now login or sign up with your Google accounts. The allowed_domains option is optional, and domains were separated by space.

You may allow users to sign-up via Google authentication by setting the allow_sign_up option to true. When this option is set to true, any user successfully authenticating via Google authentication will be automatically signed up.
