Is it possible to add an authentication step to access streamlit? I want to control so that only users who can provide a correct username/password can access the content. Example: https://dash.plot.ly/authentication

Hey all! With 1.42, we recently launched a native authentication feature in Streamlit! :partying_face: This let’s you add auth via OIDC/OAuth2 (e.g. “Login with Google”) to your app. Check out the docs here: https://docs.streamlit.io/develop/concepts/connections/authentication

exactly, thanks. unfortunately, it seems i can’t edit my previous post anymore, but thanks for clearing that up. The workaround isn’t needed anymore, however, as newer versions of streamlit do support a password field: st.text_input("Password:", value="", type="password")

You can also put auth in front of the application rather than inside it. For example, using oauth for login with nginx https://github.com/cloudflare/nginx-google-oauth/blob/master/README.md#docker-image

In case this helps anyone - this was super helpful: https://github.com/Taxuspt/heroku_streamlit_nginx

I have this below code to do the minmal user authentication. This is based on the SessionState hack here . Is there a better approach to achieve the below functionality from SessionState import get session_state = get(password='') if session_state.password != 'pwd123': pwd_placeholder = st.sid…

The approach above by @nth-attempt worked quite well for me, thanks! Minor suggestion: instead of else: st.error("the password you entered is incorrect") I would do elif session_state.password != '', so that the error doesn’t show up when the password is blank!

I did a simple test and oauth2-proxy seems to be a interesting option! It’s a simple oauth proxy, therefore I could protect my streamlit application behind a google-login page. Please be aware that oauth is not a trivial flow so, consider wisely all your requirements (i.e. logout, security, etc) …

[image] nth-attempt: from SessionState import get Hi and thx for the suggestions! :slight_smile: I have the following error: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'SessionState' I tried to install various libraries but the error is still there. Any idea anyone? Thanks, Charly

Hi Charly, You need the SessionState gist. I.e. put the file SessionState.py from here in your project. There are are different versions of the SessionState gist out there, but it looks like this one is recent. See e.g. this thread for some additional inspiration. Best regards, Peter

Hi, I’m trying to use this solution. But the following happens when 2 users use the app at the same time. Example: User A inputs his password (let’s say ‘pwd_A’) through ‘pwd = st.text_input(…)’ and I save it using session_state.password = pwd. Then another user (different device) comes and input…
