Get started

You can create a tenant on FoxIDs Cloud or you can deploy FoxIDs anywhere yourself.

FoxIDs Cloud
FoxIDs.com is hosted in Europe as an Identity Service (IDS).

Create a new tenant or log in to your tenant.

Self-Hosted
You can deploy FoxIDs anywhere using Docker or Kubernetes (K8s).

1) First login

Open the FoxIDs Control admin portal and log in. You are now in the test environment where no applications have been configured yet.

FoxIDs first login

You can select another environment, create a new environment or start building in the test environment.

2) Configure your first application

Let's configure the first OpenID Connect application and log in with a test user.
You may want to start by looking at the sample applications, which can also be configured in your test environment.

Click New application to configure your OpenID Connect application and select the type of application.

New app registration

I'll select Web Application, and then fill in the Name and base URL as the Redirect URI

New app registration configuration

Click Register to save the application configuration. Copy the Authority, Client ID and Client secret and optionally the scopes.

New app registration done

Configure your application with the Authority, Client ID and Client secret.
You are presented with a detailed configuration view then you close the pop-up. If needed you can find the OpenID Connect (OIDC) Discovery endpoint and do configuration changes.

Open you application and start the login flow. You are then redirected to the FoxIDs login prompt where you can select to create a new test user.

Each environment has a separate user store. You cannot log in with your administrator user, which only exists in the master environment. Therefore, you need to create a new or the same user in the test environment.
