+When using Authentik, take care to configure the service as follows.

+```yaml

+For domain-level forward auth, you must configure the embedded outpost first (please refer to
+[Authentik's docs](https://truecharts.org/charts/stable/authentik/how_to/)). The basic steps are to create a provider and application, then enable the embedded outpost for your newly created application.

+Once that has been done, configure each service you wish to place behind Authentik as follows:
+
+```yaml
