How deeply does Build Python Web Apps with Streamlit cover openid connect?

Explains the provider setup and Streamlit calls, but stops short of protocol internals.

Openid connect

As explained in Build Python Web Apps with Streamlit

OpenID Connect is an authentication protocol built on OAuth 2.0 that lets applications verify user identity through an identity provider.

OpenID Connect (OIDC) is an authentication protocol built on OAuth 2.0. It lets an application verify a user's identity through an identity provider instead of managing passwords and password hashes itself. section 8.4.3

A Streamlit app can send users to providers such as Google, Microsoft, Okta, or Auth0. Configure the provider's client ID, secret, and metadata in st.secrets, then start sign-in with st.login. section 8.4.3

After authentication, the app can:

Check whether a user is signed in with st.user.is_logged_in. section 8.4.3
Read identity details such as the user's email through st.user.email. section 8.4.3
End the session with st.logout. section 8.4.3
