# External Authentication
Coder integrates with Git and OpenID Connect to automate away the need for
developers to authenticate with external services within their workspace.
## Git Providers
When developers use `git` inside their workspace, they are prompted to
authenticate. After that, Coder will store and refresh tokens for future
operations.

```shell
git config --global credential.useHttpPath true
```
### Kubernetes environment variables
If you deployed Coder with Kubernetes you can set the environment variables in
your `values.yaml` file:
```yaml
coder:
env:
# […]
- name: CODER_EXTERNAL_AUTH_0_ID
value: USER_DEFINED_ID
- name: CODER_EXTERNAL_AUTH_0_TYPE
value: github
- name: CODER_EXTERNAL_AUTH_0_CLIENT_ID
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: github-primary-basic-auth
key: client-id
- name: CODER_EXTERNAL_AUTH_0_CLIENT_SECRET
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: github-primary-basic-auth
key: client-secret
```
You can set the secrets by creating a `github-primary-basic-auth.yaml` file and
applying it.
```yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
name: github-primary-basic-auth
type: Opaque
stringData:
client-secret: xxxxxxxxx
client-id: xxxxxxxxx
```
Make sure to restart the affected pods for the change to take effect.
## Require git authentication in templates
If your template requires git authentication (e.g. running `git clone` in the
[startup_script](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/coder/coder/latest/docs/resources/agent#startup_script)),
you can require users authenticate via git prior to creating a workspace:
![Git authentication in template](../images/admin/git-auth-template.png)
### Native git authentication will auto-refresh tokens
<blockquote class="info">
<p>
This is the preferred authentication method.
</p>
</blockquote>
By default, the coder agent will configure native `git` authentication via the
`GIT_ASKPASS` environment variable. Meaning, with no additional configuration,
external authentication will work with native `git` commands.
To check the auth token being used **from inside a running workspace**, run:
```shell
# If the exit code is non-zero, then the user is not authenticated with the
# external provider.
coder external-auth access-token <external-auth-id>
```
Note: Some IDE's override the `GIT_ASKPASS` environment variable and need to be
configured.
**VSCode**
Use the
[Coder](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=coder.coder-remote)
extension to automatically configure these settings for you!
Otherwise, you can manually configure the following settings:
- Set `git.terminalAuthentication` to `false`
- Set `git.useIntegratedAskPass` to `false`
### Hard coded tokens do not auto-refresh
If the token is required to be inserted into the workspace, for example
[GitHub cli](https://cli.github.com/), the auth token can be inserted from the
template. This token will not auto-refresh. The following example will
authenticate via GitHub and auto-clone a repo into the `~/coder` directory.
```hcl
data "coder_external_auth" "github" {
# Matches the ID of the external auth provider in Coder.
id = "github"
}
resource "coder_agent" "dev" {
os = "linux"
arch = "amd64"
dir = "~/coder"
env = {
GITHUB_TOKEN : data.coder_external_auth.github.access_token
}
startup_script = <<EOF
if [ ! -d ~/coder ]; then
git clone https://github.com/coder/coder
fi
EOF
}
```
See the
[Terraform provider documentation](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/coder/coder/latest/docs/data-sources/external_auth)
for all available options.
