+# `finallycoffee.nextcloud.oidc_user_backend` ansible role
+
+Configure OIDC user backends in nextcloud using this ansible role.
+This role can be run multiple times with different arguments in order to
+configure multiple oidc-based user backends.
+
+> [!WARNING]
+> This role is not production ready or finished
+
+## Configuration
+
+Set `oidc_user_backend_provider_identifier` to a unique identifier.
+Populate your provider information in the `oidc_user_backend_config_provider_provider_(settings_)`
+like this:
+
+```yaml
+oidc_user_backend_config_provider_identifier: my_provider
+oidc_user_backend_config_provider_discovery_endpoint: https://idp.example.com/
+oidc_user_backend_config_provider_client_id: my-client-id
