Hi,

Is it possible to redirect to a custom login page(if the user is not authenticated) and use [oauth](https://nodered.org/docs/api/admin/oauth) to generate the user token instead of using default login popup?

Something similar to logout redirect

> logout: {  
> redirect: "[https://xyz.com/](https://xyz.com/)",  
> },

but for login?

Thanks!

You can configure the `adminAuth` setting to use oauth - [https://nodered.org/docs/user-guide/runtime/securing-node-red#oauthopenid-based-authentication](https://nodered.org/docs/user-guide/runtime/securing-node-red#oauthopenid-based-authentication)

I want to use [custom user authentication](https://nodered.org/docs/user-guide/runtime/securing-node-red#custom-user-authentication) to authenticate based on a database check,  
but if the user is not logged in it shows the default node-red login screen.

Is it possible to show a custom login screen if the user is not logged in?

No. That is not something that is possible today.

I'm sure it could be added - just needs someone to spell out the requirements and propose a design.
