I am a bit lost as to how you use authentik to do single sign on.

I can connect things that have external access quite easily using the reverse proxy provider that’s built into authentik. I am struggling with how I would connect things that are on a docker network and can’t be accessed directly. Normally with nginx proxy manager I would put it on the same network, but I don’t think this is correct for authentik. Am I supposed to create a docker outpost?

Other people are using authentik + nginx proxy manager and I am a bit lost why they are doing that.

    I use it in two different ways. If I am using OIDC (e.g. Audiobookshelf), then I will only use Authentik. If I need to use a proxy outpost and pass those credentials to the server (e.g. Navidrome), then I need to use NPM to do that.
