Auth

Login with Slack


To enable Slack Auth for your project, you need to set up a Slack OAuth application and add the application credentials to your Supabase Dashboard.

Overview

Setting up Slack logins for your application consists of 3 parts:

Access your Slack Developer account

  • Go to api.slack.com.
  • Click on Your Apps at the top right to log in.

Slack Developer Portal.

Find your callback URL

The next step requires a callback URL, which looks like this: https://<project-ref>.supabase.co/auth/v1/callback

  • Go to your Supabase Project Dashboard
  • Click on the Authentication icon in the left sidebar
  • Click on Providers under the Configuration section
  • Click on Slack from the accordion list to expand and you'll find your Callback URL, you can click Copy to copy it to the clipboard

Create a Slack OAuth app

Under Create an app...:

  • Click From scratch
  • Type the name of your app
  • Select your Slack Workspace
  • Click Create App

Under App Credentials:

  • Copy and save your newly-generated Client ID
  • Copy and save your newly-generated Client Secret

Under the sidebar, select OAuth & Permissions and look for Redirect URLs:

  • Click Add New Redirect URL
  • Paste your Callback URL then click Add
  • Click Save URLs

Under Scopes:

Enter your Slack credentials into your Supabase project

  • Go to your Supabase Project Dashboard
  • In the left sidebar, click the Authentication icon (near the top)
  • Click on Providers under the Configuration section
  • Click on Slack from the accordion list to expand and turn Slack Enabled to ON
  • Enter your Slack Client ID and Slack Client Secret saved in the previous step
  • Click Save

Add login code to your client app

When your user signs in, call signInWithOAuth() with slack_oidc as the provider:


_10
async function signInWithSlack() {
_10
const { data, error } = await supabase.auth.signInWithOAuth({
_10
provider: 'slack_oidc',
_10
})
_10
}

For a PKCE flow, for example in Server-Side Auth, you need an extra step to handle the code exchange. When calling signInWithOAuth, provide a redirectTo URL which points to a callback route. This redirect URL should be added to your redirect allow list.

In the browser, signInWithOAuth automatically redirects to the OAuth provider's authentication endpoint, which then redirects to your endpoint.


_10
await supabase.auth.signInWithOAuth({
_10
provider,
_10
options: {
_10
redirectTo: `http://example.com/auth/callback`,
_10
},
_10
})

At the callback endpoint, handle the code exchange to save the user session.

Create a new file at app/auth/callback/route.ts and populate with the following:

app/auth/callback/route.ts

_30
import { NextResponse } from 'next/server'
_30
// The client you created from the Server-Side Auth instructions
_30
import { createClient } from '@/utils/supabase/server'
_30
_30
export async function GET(request: Request) {
_30
const { searchParams, origin } = new URL(request.url)
_30
const code = searchParams.get('code')
_30
// if "next" is in param, use it as the redirect URL
_30
const next = searchParams.get('next') ?? '/'
_30
_30
if (code) {
_30
const supabase = await createClient()
_30
const { error } = await supabase.auth.exchangeCodeForSession(code)
_30
if (!error) {
_30
const forwardedHost = request.headers.get('x-forwarded-host') // original origin before load balancer
_30
const isLocalEnv = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development'
_30
if (isLocalEnv) {
_30
// we can be sure that there is no load balancer in between, so no need to watch for X-Forwarded-Host
_30
return NextResponse.redirect(`${origin}${next}`)
_30
} else if (forwardedHost) {
_30
return NextResponse.redirect(`https://${forwardedHost}${next}`)
_30
} else {
_30
return NextResponse.redirect(`${origin}${next}`)
_30
}
_30
}
_30
}
_30
_30
// return the user to an error page with instructions
_30
return NextResponse.redirect(`${origin}/auth/auth-code-error`)
_30
}

When your user signs out, call signOut() to remove them from the browser session and any objects from localStorage:


_10
async function signOut() {
_10
const { error } = await supabase.auth.signOut()
_10
}
