# Webfinger Service The webfinger service provides an RFC7033 WebFinger lookup of ownCloud instances relevant for a given user account. It is based on https://github.com/owncloud/lookup-webfinger-sciebo but also returns localized `titles` in addition to the `href` property. ## OpenID Connect Discovery Clients can make an unauthenticated `GET https://drive.ocis.test/.well-known/webfinger?resource=https%3A%2F%2Fcloud.ocis.test` request to discover the OpenID Connect Issuer in the `http://openid.net/specs/connect/1.0/issuer` relation: ```json { "subject": "acct:einstein@drive.ocis.test", "links": [ { "rel": "http://openid.net/specs/connect/1.0/issuer", "href": "https://sso.example.org/cas/oidc/" } ] } ``` Here, the `resource` takes the instance domain URI, but an `acct:` URI works as well. ## Authenticated Instance Discovery When using OpenID connect to authenticate requests, clients can look up the owncloud instances a user has access to. * Authentication is necessary to prevent leaking information about existing users. * Basic auth is not supported. The default configuration will simply return the `OCIS_URL` and direct clients to that domain: ```json { "subject": "acct:einstein@drive.ocis.test", "links": [ { "rel": "http://openid.net/specs/connect/1.0/issuer", "href": "https://sso.example.org/cas/oidc/" }, { "rel": "http://webfinger.owncloud/rel/server-instance", "href": "https://abc.drive.example.org", "titles": { "en": "oCIS Instance" } } ] } ``` ## Configure Different Instances Based on OpenidConnect UserInfo Claims A more complex example for configuring different instances could look like this: ```yaml webfinger: instances: - claim: email regex: einstein@example\.org href: "https://{{.preferred_username}}.cloud.ocis.test" title: "en": "oCIS Instance for Einstein" "de": "oCIS Instanz für Einstein" break: true - claim: "email" regex: marie@example\.org href: "https://{{.preferred_username}}.cloud.ocis.test" title: "en": "oCIS Instance for Marie" "de": "oCIS Instanz für Marie" break: false - claim: "email" regex: .+@example\.org href: "https://example-org.cloud.ocis.test" title: "en": "oCIS Instance for example.org" "de": "oCIS Instanz für example.org" break: true - claim: "email" regex: .+@example\.com href: "https://example-com.cloud.ocis.test" title: "en": "oCIS Instance for example.com" "de": "oCIS Instanz für example.com" break: true - claim: "email" regex: .+@.+\..+ href: "https://cloud.ocis.test" title: "en": "oCIS Instance" "de": "oCIS Instanz" break: true ``` Now, an authenticated webfinger request for `acct:me@example.org` (when logged in as marie) would return two instances, based on her `email` claim, the regex matches and break flags: ```json { "subject": "acct:marie@example.org", "links": [ { "rel": "http://openid.net/specs/connect/1.0/issuer", "href": "https://sso.example.org/cas/oidc/" }, { "rel": "http://webfinger.owncloud/rel/server-instance", "href": "https://marie.cloud.ocis.test", "titles": { "en": "oCIS Instance for Marie", "de": "oCIS Instanz für Marie" } }, { "rel": "http://webfinger.owncloud/rel/server-instance", "href": "https://xyz.drive.example.org", "titles": { "en": "oCIS Instance for example.org", "de": "oCIS Instanz für example.org" } } ] } ```
