3.2.12.3. Front-channel logout

You can use Front-channel logout to log out the current user directly from the user agent, for example, its browser. It is similar to Back-channel logout but the logout steps are executed by the user agent, such as the browser, and not in the background by the OIDC provider. This option is rarely used.

You can configure Quarkus to support Front-channel logout as follows:

quarkus.oidc.auth-server-url=http://localhost:8180/realms/quarkus
quarkus.oidc.client-id=frontend
quarkus.oidc.credentials.secret=secret
quarkus.oidc.application-type=web-app

quarkus.oidc.logout.frontchannel.path=/front-channel-logout

This path will be compared to the current request’s path, and the user will be logged out if these paths match.
