OIDC Auth with Self-hosted license Business

Describe the problem/error/question

In License page for self-hosted, in “what’s included” there is only a line for “SSO SAML and LDAP” that is :white_check_mark: for business license.
But it seem when we enable license OIDC mode is not included, so is it an error or is it really not included?
And if it’s really not included, I think you should mention it in license page.

What is the error message (if any)?

No real error message, just a message that OIDC is not included on our N8N install with Business License.

Information on your n8n setup

  • n8n version: 1.109.2
  • Database (default: SQLite): PostgreSQL
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main): main
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app): kubernetes (so docker image)
  • Operating system: linux

But there is the same warning for SAML “Available on Enterprise plans.”.
So it’s really confusing, both (SAML and OIDC) mention “Available on Enterprise plans.” but SAML seem to be added in business license and not OIDC, but no mention of this specification for OIDC.
So is it really not just a missing change on OIDC setting, because Business Plan is a newer license type so is it not a missing change?

If it’s not a missing change, for me it’s important to mention it in license information and in license buying page in “what’s included” part.

Hey @Cyrille_B hope all is well. Welcome.

Have you tried restarting n8n after the license is applied?

You’re right, the wording is confusing. The current situation is:
SAML → Included in the Business Plan
OIDC → Only available in the Enterprise Plan
So, the message you’re seeing is correct—OIDC is not part of the Business license. I agree that it would be clearer if the licensing/purchase page explicitly reflected this distinction, as both documents state “Enterprise Only.”
If you’d like official confirmation or roadmap information, I recommend contacting the n8n team directly at [email protected].
