OAuth

Sign in with Google, GitHub, and other OAuth providers.

Note: This is mock/placeholder content for demonstration purposes.

Allow users to sign in with their existing accounts from Google, GitHub, and other providers.

Supported Providers

Supabase supports many OAuth providers:

Google
GitHub
GitLab
Bitbucket
Azure
Facebook
Twitter
Discord
Slack
And more...

Setting Up OAuth

Configure in Supabase Dashboard

Go to Authentication → Providers
Enable your desired provider (e.g., Google)
Add your OAuth credentials:
- Client ID
- Client Secret
- Redirect URL: https://your-project.supabase.co/auth/v1/callback

Google OAuth Setup

Go to Google Cloud Console
Create a new project or select existing
Enable Google+ API
Create OAuth 2.0 credentials
Add authorized redirect URIs:
- Production: https://your-project.supabase.co/auth/v1/callback
- Development: http://localhost:54321/auth/v1/callback

GitHub OAuth Setup

Go to GitHub Settings → Developer Settings → OAuth Apps
Click "New OAuth App"
Fill in details:
- Application name: Your App
- Homepage URL: https://yourapp.com
- Authorization callback URL: https://your-project.supabase.co/auth/v1/callback
Copy Client ID and Client Secret to Supabase

Implementation

'use client';

import { signInWithOAuthAction } from '../_lib/actions';

export function OAuthButtons() {
  const handleGoogleSignIn = async () => {
    await signInWithOAuthAction('google');
  };

  const handleGitHubSignIn = async () => {
    await signInWithOAuthAction('github');
  };

  return (
    <div className="space-y-2">
      <button
        onClick={handleGoogleSignIn}
        className="w-full flex items-center justify-center gap-2 border rounded-lg p-2"
      >
        <GoogleIcon />
        Continue with Google
      </button>

      <button
        onClick={handleGitHubSignIn}
        className="w-full flex items-center justify-center gap-2 border rounded-lg p-2"
      >
        <GitHubIcon />
        Continue with GitHub
      </button>
    </div>
  );
}

Server Action

'use server';

import { enhanceAction } from '@kit/next/actions';
import { getSupabaseServerClient } from '@kit/supabase/server-client';
import { z } from 'zod';

const OAuthProviderSchema = z.enum([
  'google',
  'github',
  'gitlab',
  'azure',
  'facebook',
]);

export const signInWithOAuthAction = enhanceAction(
  async (provider) => {
    const client = getSupabaseServerClient();
    const origin = process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_SITE_URL!;

    const { data, error } = await client.auth.signInWithOAuth({
      provider,
      options: {
        redirectTo: `${origin}/auth/callback`,
      },
    });

    if (error) throw error;

    // Redirect to OAuth provider
    redirect(data.url);
  },
  {
    schema: OAuthProviderSchema,
  }
);

OAuth Callback Handler

// app/auth/callback/route.ts
import { createRouteHandlerClient } from '@supabase/auth-helpers-nextjs';
import { cookies } from 'next/headers';
import { NextResponse } from 'next/server';

export async function GET(request: Request) {
  const requestUrl = new URL(request.url);
  const code = requestUrl.searchParams.get('code');

  if (code) {
    const cookieStore = cookies();
    const supabase = createRouteHandlerClient({ cookies: () => cookieStore });

    await supabase.auth.exchangeCodeForSession(code);
  }

  // Redirect to home page
  return NextResponse.redirect(new URL('/home', request.url));
}

Customizing OAuth Flow

Scopes

Request specific permissions:

await client.auth.signInWithOAuth({
  provider: 'google',
  options: {
    scopes: 'email profile https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar',
  },
});

Query Parameters

Pass custom parameters:

await client.auth.signInWithOAuth({
  provider: 'azure',
  options: {
    queryParams: {
      prompt: 'consent',
      access_type: 'offline',
    },
  },
});

Skip Browser Redirect

For mobile apps or custom flows:

const { data } = await client.auth.signInWithOAuth({
  provider: 'google',
  options: {
    skipBrowserRedirect: true,
  },
});

// data.url contains the OAuth URL
// Handle redirect manually

Account Linking

Linking Additional Providers

Allow users to link multiple OAuth accounts:

export const linkOAuthProviderAction = enhanceAction(
  async (provider) => {
    const client = getSupabaseServerClient();
    const user = await requireAuth();

    const { data, error } = await client.auth.linkIdentity({
      provider,
    });

    if (error) throw error;

    redirect(data.url);
  },
  { schema: OAuthProviderSchema, auth: true }
);

Unlinking Providers

export const unlinkOAuthProviderAction = enhanceAction(
  async ({ provider, identityId }) => {
    const client = getSupabaseServerClient();

    const { error } = await client.auth.unlinkIdentity({
      identity_id: identityId,
    });

    if (error) throw error;

    revalidatePath('/settings/security');
  },
  {
    schema: z.object({
      provider: z.string(),
      identityId: z.string(),
    }),
    auth: true,
  }
);

Viewing Linked Identities

import { getSupabaseServerClient } from '@kit/supabase/server-client';

export async function getLinkedIdentities() {
  const client = getSupabaseServerClient();
  const { data: { user } } = await client.auth.getUser();

  return user?.identities || [];
}

User Data from OAuth

Accessing Provider Data

const { data: { user } } = await client.auth.getUser();

// User metadata from provider
const {
  full_name,
  avatar_url,
  email,
} = user.user_metadata;

// Provider-specific data
const identities = user.identities || [];
const googleIdentity = identities.find(i => i.provider === 'google');

console.log(googleIdentity?.identity_data);

Storing Additional Data

export const completeOAuthProfileAction = enhanceAction(
  async (data) => {
    const client = getSupabaseServerClient();
    const user = await requireAuth();

    // Update user metadata
    await client.auth.updateUser({
      data: {
        username: data.username,
        bio: data.bio,
      },
    });

    // Update profile in database
    await client.from('profiles').upsert({
      id: user.id,
      username: data.username,
      bio: data.bio,
      avatar_url: user.user_metadata.avatar_url,
    });

    redirect('/home');
  },
  { schema: ProfileSchema, auth: true }
);

Configuration

Enable OAuth in Config

// config/auth.config.ts
export const authConfig = {
  providers: {
    emailPassword: true,
    oAuth: ['google', 'github'],
  },
};

Conditional Rendering

import { authConfig } from '~/config/auth.config';

export function AuthProviders() {
  return (
    <>
      {authConfig.providers.emailPassword && <EmailPasswordForm />}

      {authConfig.providers.oAuth?.includes('google') && (
        <GoogleSignInButton />
      )}

      {authConfig.providers.oAuth?.includes('github') && (
        <GitHubSignInButton />
      )}
    </>
  );
}

Troubleshooting

Redirect URI Mismatch

Ensure redirect URIs match exactly:

Check Supabase Dashboard → Authentication → URL Configuration
Verify OAuth app settings in provider console
Use exact URLs (including http/https)

Missing Email

Some providers don't share email by default:

const { data: { user } } = await client.auth.getUser();

if (!user.email) {
  // Request email separately or prompt user
  redirect('/auth/complete-profile');
}

Rate Limiting

OAuth providers may rate limit requests:

Cache OAuth tokens appropriately
Don't make excessive authorization requests
Handle rate limit errors gracefully

Best Practices

Request minimum scopes - Only ask for what you need
Handle errors gracefully - OAuth can fail for many reasons
Verify email addresses - Some providers don't verify emails
Support account linking - Let users connect multiple providers
Provide fallback - Always offer email/password as backup
Log OAuth events - Track sign-ins and linking attempts
Test thoroughly - Test with real provider accounts
