Android application OIDC issue

Status

• Processing

Date

• 2026-04-20

version

• affine server: 0.26.3 (self-hosted)
• affine application: 0.26.3 (Android)
• IdP: Authelia:4.39.15

Problem

• Affine android app cannot authenticate via OIDC
  • IdP authentication succeeds, but the app does not establish a session
  • The app remains on the "Sign In" screen

Reason

• Affine uses callback deep link affine://authentication
• For self-hosted instances the deep link carries a 'server' parameter pointing to the correct origin, but android never read it.
