Authentik Admin Sign-in

Hello,

I installed Authentik from the App Catalog.

I cannot get to the /if/admin/ page. I see it load, but it immediately redirects to the sign-in page, and because I can’t get to the admin interface, I haven’t setup any users yet.

I’ve read through the Authentic docs, but it doesn’t really explain this.

Google Gemini suggested running “docker compose run --rm server create_recovery_key 10 akadmin” to generate a temporary key to sign in, but I’m not sure how to make that work in SCALE.

You need to browse to /if/flow/initial-setup/ to set up the admin user.

Thank you, Dan

Maybe I missed it in my rush, but I don’t recall seeing that anywhere.

It’s in the Authentik docs on the first page of the docker setup:

To start the initial setup, navigate to http://<your server's IP or hostname>:9000/if/flow/initial-setup/.
