Authelia Rules

This is a collection of some common Authelia Rules.

RULE ORDER

It is important that rules are created in the correct order in Authelia. Rules are processed from top to bottom with the first matching rule being applied. The most narrow rules should be applied first with the most broad rules last.

DEFAULT POLICY

For these rules to work as intended, your default access control policy must be set to deny.

All rules requiring Authelia authentication were configured with two_factor (2FA). If you do not want 2FA on some or all rules replace the Policy with one_factor.

In this guide we assume you have a group admin and a group user in LDAP. Members of the admin group will have access to everything. Members of the user group will only have access to a select set of apps you choose.

API Rule

This rule will bypass Authelia for API level access in most apps. This should always be your first rule.

values.yaml

- domain: "*.example.com"
  policy: bypass
  resources:
  - "^/api([/?].*)?$"
  - "^/api([/?].*)?$"
  - "^/identity.*$"
  - "^/triggers.*$"
  - "^/meshagents.*$"
  - "^/meshsettings.*$"
  - "^/agent.*$"
  - "^/control.*$"
  - "^/meshrelay.*$"
  - "^/wl.*$"

Vaultwarden

This rule will allow users of the admin group to access the Vaultwarden admin page and bypass Authelia when accessing the webportal as auth is already provided by vaultwarden.

values.yaml

- domain: "vaultwarden.example.com"
  policy: two_factor
  subject: group:admin
  resources: "^*/admin.*$"
- domain: "vaultwarden.example.com"
  policy: deny
  resources: "^*/admin.*$"
- domain: "vaultwarden.example.com"
  policy: bypass

User Rule

This rule will allow users in the user group access to only the specified applications.

values.yaml

- domain:
  - "jellyfin.example.com"
  - "nextcloud.example.com"
  - "whateveryouwant.example.com"
  policy: two_factor
  subject: group:user

Catch All Rule

This rule will give access to everything to users of the admin group.

values.yaml

- domain:
  - "example.com"
  - "*.example.com"
  policy: two_factor
  subject: group:admin
