I want a user to be able to login in Foundry, while outside of Foundry (e.g. in my own React app/portal in my company’s network). How can this user login, without seeing it much/at all Foundry (no dropdown, popup, visible login flow, etc.) ---

## How to setup You need a few things in order for the users to be able to login without popup/action from their side: - The user need to be already logged-in with your IDP (e.g. have an active Entra browser session) - The user need to be able to login to Foundry (so the Foundry-application need to be accessible for this user in your IDP config + Correct organization/group assignment configuration in Control Panel in Foundry) - Organization-level OAuth application consent (see below) to avoid seeing the “allow” popup on each login. - There should be one identity provider the user is being redirected to. If you have multiple identity providers, you need to pass the `_realm` parameter to the login page, so that the user doesn’t have to select manually which IDP integration to use. See below. This screen is the OAuth application consent: ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/palantir/original/2X/9/94915efd631fb6ae8f8d9be31f4adda0b4b686d9.png) This can be “turned off” by allowing a whole organization access to a given application in Control Panel: ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/palantir/original/2X/f/fc0d844eb529126fd60438ece8735db4225b714a.png) The realm parameter can be passed to ```auto https://foundry.example.com/multipass/api/oauth2/authorize?_realm=127b1e4a-5678-498a-1234-b20113eeeace ``` ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/palantir/original/2X/9/9f51067edf0a1164f1eecb108f884ef7ca15039c.png) ## How to test To easily test the flow, you can use this below local webpage: ```auto Foundry OAuth PKCE + curl Tester

Foundry OAuth PKCE + curl Tester

This page performs OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code with PKCE and generates an authenticated curl command.

Foundry URL Authentication realm (optional) OAuth client ID Registered callback URI OAuth scopes

curl request

Foundry API URL or path

Status

Ready.

Generated curl

The generated command contains a live bearer token. Do not share it.

No command generated.

``` Put the file in a folder, navigate to this folder with your terminal, and start serving it via `python3 -m http.server 8000` Access `http://localhost:8000/oauth_test.html` and you should get: ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/palantir/original/2X/7/768ac92279cd71669c2917d04eb96bf650a481a3.png) Fill the configuration, namely from the Developer console application: ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/palantir/original/2X/7/71643912d13b9cf3ee8b9584a0d7c1b01f91f5e4.png) You can click “login” to start the OAuth flow, and see what a user would see (Do they see the OSDK approval screen ? Their IDP screen ? Something else ?). Once logged-in, a token should be retrieved. You can then try to hit `/api/v2/ontologies` and get a curl generated, which you can then test from your terminal. You should have a curl that look like: ```curl curl --fail-with-body --silent --show-error \ -H 'Authorization: Bearer ey...REDACTED...Q' \ 'https://REDACTED.com/api/v2/ontologies' ``` Result: ```json {"data":[{"apiName":"ontology-d2770208-d11e-42d5-8708-67835767f0d6","displayName":"Advisory Ontology","description":" Ontology","rid":"ri.ontology.main.ontology.0bf6a0db-1234-5678-9413-58ee7d3edf3e"}]} ``` See [https://www.palantir.com/docs/foundry/consumer-mode/foundry-consumer-setup/](https://www.palantir.com/docs/foundry/consumer-mode/foundry-consumer-setup/) for more details
