SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps you implement external authentication (OAuth/SSO) in the Umbraco backoffice by producing the correct frontend extension-type wiring based on the official documentation.

Core Features & Use Cases

Docs-first implementation: pulls the latest official Umbraco guidance for external login providers, extension types, and foundation concepts before building anything.
Frontend extension manifests: generates an authProvider manifest for standard provider buttons (e.g., Google/GitHub/Microsoft) and supports UI configuration like icons, button style, and metadata.
Custom and SSO behaviors: supports custom login button elements and provider behavior such as auto-redirect and popup-based flows for enterprise scenarios.
Use case: add a “Login with GitHub” button in Umbraco backoffice that triggers the backend OAuth scheme and optionally allows manual account linking.

Quick Start

Ask the AI to implement an authProvider frontend for a custom OAuth provider called "Umbraco.CustomSSO" with a login button that triggers an auth-request event and supports auto-redirect.

What is an authProvider extension manifest in Umbraco?▼

An authProvider extension manifest in Umbraco is a frontend configuration file that wires external login buttons to backend OAuth schemes. It defines UI elements like button styles and icons, ensuring the forProviderName matches your backend authentication configuration.

How do I link the frontend login button to my backend Umbraco authentication scheme?▼

You link the frontend login button to your backend Umbraco authentication scheme by setting the forProviderName in the authProvider manifest. This ensures the generated extension UI correctly triggers the correct backend OAuth flow during backoffice login.
