description: "The HTTP basic authentication (BasicAuth) middleware in Traefik Proxy restricts access to your Services to known users. Read the technical documentation."

The `basicAuth` middleware grants access to services to authorized users only.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Configuration Examples
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```yaml tab="Structured (YAML)"
|
|||
|
# Declaring the user list
|
|||
|
http:
|
|||
|
middlewares:
|
|||
|
test-auth:
|
|||
|
basicAuth:
|
|||
|
users:
|
|||
|
- "test:$apr1$H6uskkkW$IgXLP6ewTrSuBkTrqE8wj/"
|
|||
|
- "test2:$apr1$d9hr9HBB$4HxwgUir3HP4EsggP/QNo0"
|
|||
|
```

|
|||
|
```yaml tab="Labels"
|
|||
|
# Declaring the user list
|
|||
|
#
|
|||
|
# Note: when used in docker-compose.yml all dollar signs in the hash need to be doubled for escaping.
|
|||
|
# To create user:password pair, it's possible to use this command:
|
|||
|
# echo $(htpasswd -nB user) | sed -e s/\\$/\\$\\$/g
|
|||
|
#
|
|||
|
# Also, note that dollar signs should NOT be doubled when not evaluated (e.g. Ansible docker_container module).

## Configuration Options
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
| Field | Description | Default | Required |
|
|||
|
|:-----------|:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|:--------|:---------|
|
|||
|
| `users` | Array of authorized users. Each user must be declared using the `name:hashed-password` format. (More information [here](#users))| "" | No |
|
|||
|
| `usersFile` | Path to an external file that contains the authorized users for the middleware. <br />The file content is a list of `name:hashed-password`. (More information [here](#usersfile)) | "" | No |
|
|||
|
| `realm` | Allow customizing the realm for the authentication.| "traefik" | No |
|
|||
|
| `headerField` | Allow defining a header field to store the authenticated user.| "" | No |
|
|||
|
| `removeHeader` | Allow removing the authorization header before forwarding the request to your service. | false | No |
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Passwords format
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Passwords must be hashed using MD5, SHA1, or BCrypt.
|
|||
|
Use `htpasswd` to generate the passwords.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### users & usersFile
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- If both `users` and `usersFile` are provided, they are merged. The contents of `usersFile` have precedence over the values in users.
|
|||
|
- Because referencing a file path isn’t feasible on Kubernetes, the `users` & `usersFile` field isn’t used in Kubernetes IngressRoute. Instead, use the `secret` field.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Kubernetes Secrets
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The option `users` supports Kubernetes secrets.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
!!! note "Kubernetes `kubernetes.io/basic-auth` secret type"
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Kubernetes supports a special `kubernetes.io/basic-auth` secret type.
|
|||
|
This secret must contain two keys: `username` and `password`.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Please note that these keys are not hashed or encrypted in any way, and therefore is less secure than other methods.
|
|||
