From the STACKIT docsCreate and manage instances for Notebooks › External Identity Provider (IdP)Source updated 27.03.2026 · copied 05.10.2026

As for now, Notebooks depends on an external Identity Provider for authentication, authorization and single-sign-on. It uses the OpenID Connect protocol. The following IdPs are supported:

  • Azure
  • Google
  • Okta
  • AWS Cognito
  • Keycloak

To integrate an IdP, you need to provide the Client ID, the Client secret, the Scope and the Discovery Endpoint. You need to get these values from the respective provider.

The values for Scope are in most cases openid email, for EntraID it is openid email User.Read.

The format for a Discovery Endpoint is https://\<provider-domain\>/.well-known/openid-configuration.

Limitations & Constraints

Section titled “Limitations & Constraints”
  • Restart Required for Scaling: Changing instance sizes or attached GPUs requires stopping and restarting the notebook instance.
  • Ephemeral Root Storage: Files saved outside the mounted persistent volume directory are erased upon pod restart.
  • No Headless Background Execution: Sessions automatically shut down during inactivity, terminating long-running background training scripts.
