By default, your Coder instance uses CodeWire SSO — users sign in through CodeWire and are automatically authenticated with Coder. You can override this with a custom OAuth/OIDC provider.

​
Default: CodeWire SSO

With the default setup:
  • Users sign in to CodeWire with email/password
  • CodeWire issues tokens that Coder accepts automatically
  • No additional configuration needed
This is recommended for most teams.

​
Custom OAuth provider

If your organization uses an identity provider like Okta, Auth0, Azure AD, or another OIDC-compatible service, you can configure it as the login provider for your Coder instance.

​
Configure a custom provider

  1. Go to your resource Settings
  2. Scroll to Advanced Settings → Login Provider Override
  3. Select Custom OAuth
  4. Enter:
    • Issuer URL — your OIDC provider’s issuer URL (e.g., https://your-org.okta.com)
    • Client ID — the OAuth client ID from your provider
    • Client Secret — the OAuth client secret from your provider
  5. Click Save
  6. Click Sync Configuration to apply the changes
After saving, you must click Sync Configuration in Advanced Settings for the change to take effect. This re-provisions your resource with the new login settings.

​
Switching back to CodeWire SSO

  1. Go to Advanced Settings → Login Provider Override
  2. Select CodeWire SSO (default)
  3. Click Save
  4. Click Sync Configuration

​
Important notes

  • The sync process takes 1–2 minutes while your resource is re-provisioned
  • Existing Coder sessions may be invalidated when switching providers
  • Make sure your OIDC provider is configured to allow redirects to your resource domain
