fixup! Further pursue of perfection.

1. ✅ HTTPS Detection Fixed (session.go:723)
- Now uses X-Forwarded-Proto header instead of r.URL.Scheme
- Properly detects HTTPS in reverse proxy environments
2. ✅ SameSite Cookie Attribute Fixed
- Removed automatic SameSiteStrictMode for HTTPS (would break OAuth)
- Keeps SameSiteLaxMode to allow OAuth callbacks from external domains
- Only uses Strict for AJAX requests which don't involve OAuth redirects
3. ✅ Cookie Domain Handling Fixed
- Now respects X-Forwarded-Host header for cookie domain
- Ensures cookies are set for the public domain, not internal proxy domain
4. ✅ EnhanceSessionSecurity Properly Integrated
- Function is now actually called during session save
- Applies security enhancements without breaking OAuth flow

Why Issue #53 Failed Before:

1. Cookies were not marked Secure in HTTPS environments (browser wouldn't send them back)
2. If they had been Secure with SameSite=Strict, Azure callbacks would still fail
3. Cookie domain might have been wrong (internal vs public domain)

Why It Works Now:

1. Cookies are properly marked Secure for HTTPS
2. Uses SameSite=Lax to allow OAuth provider callbacks
3. Cookie domain uses public domain from X-Forwarded-Host
4. CSRF token persists through the entire OAuth flow

 summary: |
-  Middleware adding OIDC authentication to traefik routes. Does what it says on the tin.
-  Middleware has been tested with Auth0 and Logto. It should work with any OIDC provider.
+  Middleware adding OpenID Connect (OIDC) authentication to Traefik routes.
+
+  This middleware replaces the need for forward-auth and oauth2-proxy when using Traefik as a reverse proxy.
+  It provides a complete OIDC authentication solution with features like domain restrictions,
+  role-based access control, token caching, and more.
+
+  The middleware has been tested with Auth0, Logto, Google, and other standard OIDC providers.
+  It includes special handling for Google's OAuth implementation to ensure compatibility.
+  It supports various authentication scenarios including:
+
+  - Basic authentication with customizable callback and logout URLs
+  - Email domain restrictions to limit access to specific organizations
+  - Role and group-based access control
+  - Public URLs that bypass authentication
+  - Rate limiting to prevent brute force attacks
+  - Custom post-logout redirect behavior
+  - Secure session management with encrypted cookies
+  - Automatic token validation and refresh

+# --- Provider Specific Configuration Examples ---
+#
+# Below are example configurations tailored for specific OIDC providers.
+# Uncomment and adapt the relevant section for your provider.
+# Remember to replace placeholder values (like client IDs, secrets, domains)
+# with your actual credentials and settings.
+#
+# For all providers, ensure claims like email, roles, and groups are
+# configured to be included in the ID TOKEN. This plugin validates ID tokens.
+
+# --- Keycloak Example ---
+# testDataKeycloak:
+#   providerURL: https://your-keycloak-domain/realms/your-realm # e.g., http://localhost:8080/realms/master
+#   clientID: your-keycloak-client-id
+#   clientSecret: your-keycloak-client-secret # Store securely, e.g., urn:k8s:secret:namespace:secret-name:key
+#   callbackURL: /oauth2/callback
+#   sessionEncryptionKey: "a-very-secure-key-at-least-32-bytes-long-for-keycloak"
+#   scopes: # Default ["openid", "profile", "email"] are usually sufficient. Add others if mappers depend on them.
+#     - roles # Example: if you mapped Keycloak roles to a 'roles' claim in the ID token
+#     - groups # Example: if you mapped Keycloak groups to a 'groups' claim in the ID token
+#   allowedRolesAndGroups: # Corresponds to 'Token Claim Name' in Keycloak mappers
+#     - admin
+#     - editor
+#   # Ensure Keycloak client mappers add 'email', 'roles', 'groups' etc. to the ID Token.
+#   # See README.md "Provider Configuration Recommendations" for Keycloak.
+
+# --- Azure AD (Microsoft Entra ID) Example ---
+# testDataAzureAD:

+#   sessionEncryptionKey: "a-very-secure-key-at-least-32-bytes-long-for-azure"
+#   scopes: # Defaults ["openid", "profile", "email"] are good.
+#     # Azure AD may require specific scopes for certain graph API permissions if you were to use the access token,
+#     # but for ID token claims, defaults are often enough.
+#     # Group claims need to be configured in Azure AD App Registration -> Token Configuration -> Add groups claim.
+#   allowedUserDomains:
+#     - yourcompany.com
+#   allowedRolesAndGroups: # If you configured group claims (typically 'groups') or app roles in Azure AD

+#   clientSecret: your-google-client-secret # Store securely
+#   callbackURL: /oauth2/callback
+#   sessionEncryptionKey: "a-very-secure-key-at-least-32-bytes-long-for-google"
+#   scopes: # Defaults ["openid", "profile", "email"] are handled. Plugin manages Google-specifics.
+#     # Do NOT add 'offline_access' - plugin handles this.
+#   allowedUserDomains: # Useful for Google Workspace users
+#     - your-gsuite-domain.com
+#   # Google includes 'hd' (hosted domain) claim which can be used with allowedUserDomains.
+#   # Other claims like 'email', 'sub', 'name' are standard.
+#   # See README.md "Provider Configuration Recommendations" for Google.
+
+# --- Auth0 Example ---
+# testDataAuth0:
+#   providerURL: https://your-auth0-domain.auth0.com # Replace with your Auth0 domain
+#   clientID: your-auth0-client-id
+#   clientSecret: your-auth0-client-secret # Store securely
+#   callbackURL: /oauth2/callback
+#   sessionEncryptionKey: "a-very-secure-key-at-least-32-bytes-long-for-auth0"
+#   scopes: # Defaults ["openid", "profile", "email"]. Add custom scopes if your Auth0 Rules/Actions require them.
+#     - read:custom_data # Example custom scope
+#   allowedRolesAndGroups: # Based on claims added via Auth0 Rules or Actions (e.g. namespaced claims)
+#     - "https://your-app.com/roles:admin"
+#     - editor
+#   # Use Auth0 Rules or Actions to add custom claims (roles, permissions) to the ID Token.
+#   # Ensure postLogoutRedirectURI is in Auth0 app's "Allowed Logout URLs".
+#   # See README.md "Provider Configuration Recommendations" for Auth0.

+#   sessionEncryptionKey: "a-very-secure-key-at-least-32-bytes-long-for-generic"
+#   scopes: # Must include "openid". "profile" and "email" are common.
+#     - openid
+#     - profile
+#     - email
+#     - custom_scope_for_claims # If your provider needs specific scopes for ID token claims
+#   allowedRolesAndGroups:
+#     - user_role_from_id_token
+#   # Consult your provider's documentation on how to map attributes/roles/groups to ID Token claims.

+      in addition to any domain-level restrictions set by allowedUserDomains.
+      
+      This provides fine-grained control over individual access and can be used

+      
+      When set, all session cookies will use this domain. When not set, the domain
+      is auto-detected from the request headers (X-Forwarded-Host or Host).
+      
+      Use a leading dot for subdomain-wide cookies (e.g., ".example.com" allows
+      cookies to be shared between app.example.com, api.example.com, etc.).
+      
+      Use a specific domain for host-only cookies (e.g., "app.example.com" restricts
+      cookies to that exact domain).
+      
+      This setting is crucial to prevent authentication issues like "CSRF token missing
+      in session" errors that can occur when cookies are created with inconsistent domains.
+      
+      Examples:
+      - ".example.com" - Allows all subdomains to share cookies
+      - "app.example.com" - Restricts cookies to this specific host
+      
+      Default: "" (auto-detected from request headers)
+    required: false
+
+  headers:
+    type: array
+    description: |
+      Custom HTTP headers to set with templated values derived from OIDC claims and tokens.
+      Each header has a name and a value template that can access:
+      - {{.Claims.field}} - Access ID token claims (e.g., email, sub, name)
+      - {{.AccessToken}} - The raw access token string
+      - {{.IdToken}} - The raw ID token string
+      - {{.RefreshToken}} - The raw refresh token string
+
+      Templates support Go template syntax including conditionals and iteration.
+      Variable names are case-sensitive - use .Claims not .claims.
+
+      IMPORTANT: Template Escaping
+      If you encounter the error "can't evaluate field AccessToken in type bool" when
+      starting Traefik, this means Traefik is trying to evaluate the template expressions
+      before passing them to the plugin. To fix this, you need to escape the templates
+      using one of these methods:
+
+      1. Use YAML literal style (recommended):
+         headers:
+           - name: "Authorization"
+             value: |
+               Bearer {{.AccessToken}}
+
+      2. Use single quotes:
+         headers:
+           - name: "Authorization"
+             value: 'Bearer {{.AccessToken}}'
+
+      3. For inline double quotes, escape the braces:
+         headers:
+           - name: "Authorization"
+             value: "Bearer {{"{{.AccessToken}}"}}"
+
+      Examples:
+      - name: "X-User-Email", value: "{{.Claims.email}}"
+      - name: "Authorization", value: "Bearer {{.AccessToken}}"
+      - name: "X-User-Roles", value: "{{range $i, $e := .Claims.roles}}{{if $i}},{{end}}{{$e}}{{end}}"
+    required: false
+    items:
+      type: object
+      properties:
+        name:
+          type: string
+          description: The HTTP header name to set
+        value:
+          type: string
+          description: Template string for the header value

-## Traefik OIDC middleware
+# Traefik OIDC Middleware
 
-This middleware is supposed to replace the need for the forward-auth and oauth2-proxy when using traefik as a reverse proxy to support the OIDC authentication.
+This middleware replaces the need for forward-auth and oauth2-proxy when using Traefik as a reverse proxy to support OpenID Connect (OIDC) authentication.
 
-Middleware has been tested with Auth0 and Logto.
+## Overview
 
-### Configuration options
+The Traefik OIDC middleware provides a complete OIDC authentication solution with features like:
+- Token validation and verification
+- Session management
+- Domain restrictions
+- Role-based access control
+- Token caching and blacklisting
+- Rate limiting
+- Excluded paths (public URLs)
 
-Middleware currently supports following scenarios:
+**Important Note on Token Validation:** This middleware performs authentication and claim extraction based on the **ID Token** provided by the OIDC provider. It does not primarily use the Access Token for these purposes (though the Access Token is available for templated headers if needed). Therefore, ensure that all necessary claims (e.g., email, roles, custom attributes) are included in the ID Token by your OIDC provider's configuration.
 
-* Setting custom callback and logout URLs via `callbackURL` and `logoutURL`
-* Allowing for access only from the listed domains if `allowedUserDomains` is set, otherwise it relies entirely on the OIDC provider
-* Using excluded URLs which do **NOT** require the OIDC authentication
-* Rate limiting requests to prevent the bruteforce attacks
+The middleware has been tested with Auth0, Logto, Google and other standard OIDC providers. It includes special handling for Google's OAuth implementation.
 
-#### Docker compose example
+## Traefik Version Compatibility
 
-`docker-compose.yaml`
+This middleware follows closely the current Traefik helm chart versions. If the plugin fails to load, it's time to update to the latest version of the Traefik helm chart.
+
+## Installation
+
+### As a Traefik Plugin
+
+1. Enable the plugin in your Traefik static configuration:
+
+```yaml
+# traefik.yml
+experimental:
+  plugins:
+    traefikoidc:
+      moduleName: github.com/lukaszraczylo/traefikoidc
+      version: v0.2.1  # Use the latest version
+```
+
+2. Configure the middleware in your dynamic configuration (see examples below).
+
+### Local Development with Docker Compose
+
+For local development or testing, you can use the provided Docker Compose setup:
+
+```bash
+cd docker
+docker-compose up -d
+```
+
+This will start Traefik with the OIDC middleware and two test services.
+
+## Configuration Options
+
+The middleware supports the following configuration options:
+
+### Required Parameters
+
+| Parameter | Description | Example |

+## Scope Configuration
+
+### Scope Behavior
+
+The middleware supports two modes for handling OAuth 2.0 scopes, controlled by the `overrideScopes` parameter:
+
+#### Default Append Mode (`overrideScopes: false`)
+
+By default, the middleware uses an **append** behavior for OAuth 2.0 scopes:
+
+- **Default scopes** are always included: `["openid", "profile", "email"]`
+- **User-provided scopes** are appended to the defaults with automatic deduplication
+- The final scope list maintains the order: defaults first, then user scopes
+
+#### Override Mode (`overrideScopes: true`)
+
+When `overrideScopes` is set to `true`, the middleware uses **replacement** behavior:
+
+- Default scopes are **not** automatically included
+- Only the scopes explicitly provided in the `scopes` field are used
+- You must include all required scopes explicitly, including `openid` if needed
+
+### Examples:
+
+**Default behavior (no custom scopes):**
+```yaml
+# No scopes field specified
+# Result: ["openid", "profile", "email"]
+```
+
+**Default append behavior:**
+```yaml
+scopes:
+  - roles
+  - custom_scope
+# Result: ["openid", "profile", "email", "roles", "custom_scope"]
+```
+
+**Overlapping scopes with append (automatic deduplication):**
+```yaml
+scopes:
+  - openid      # Duplicate - will be deduplicated
+  - roles
+  - profile     # Duplicate - will be deduplicated
+  - permissions
+# Result: ["openid", "profile", "email", "roles", "permissions"]
+```
+
+**Using override mode:**
+```yaml
+overrideScopes: true
+scopes:
+  - openid
+  - profile
+  - custom_scope
+# Result: ["openid", "profile", "custom_scope"]
+```
+
+**Empty scopes list with default behavior:**
+```yaml
+scopes: []
+# Result: ["openid", "profile", "email"]
+```
+
+**Empty scopes list with override mode:**
+```yaml
+overrideScopes: true
+scopes: []
+# Result: [] (Warning: empty scopes may cause authentication to fail)
+```
+
+The default append behavior ensures essential OIDC scopes are always present, while the override mode gives you complete control over the exact scopes requested from the provider.
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Basic Configuration

+        - /public-data
+        - /health
+        - /metrics
+```
+
+### With Email Domain Restrictions
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Middleware

+      allowedUserDomains:
+        - company.com
+        - subsidiary.com
+```
+
+### With Specific User Access
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Middleware
+metadata:
+  name: oidc-specific-users
+  namespace: traefik
+spec:

+      allowedUsers:
+        - [email protected]
+        - [email protected]
+```
+
+### With Both Domain and Specific User Access
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Middleware
+metadata:
+  name: oidc-domain-and-users
+  namespace: traefik
+spec:
+  plugin:
+    traefikoidc:
+      providerURL: https://accounts.google.com
+      clientID: 1234567890.apps.googleusercontent.com
+      clientSecret: your-client-secret
+      sessionEncryptionKey: potato-secret-is-at-least-32-bytes-long
+      callbackURL: /oauth2/callback

+        - company.com
+      allowedUsers:
+        - [email protected]
+        - [email protected]
+```
+
+When configuring access control:
+- If only `allowedUsers` is set, only the specified email addresses will be granted access
+- If only `allowedUserDomains` is set, only users with email addresses from those domains will be granted access
+- If both are set, access is granted if the user's email is in `allowedUsers` OR their email's domain is in `allowedUserDomains`
+- If neither is set, any authenticated user will be granted access
+- Email matching is case-insensitive
+
+### With Role-Based Access Control
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Middleware
+metadata:
+  name: oidc-rbac
+  namespace: traefik

+      clientSecret: your-client-secret
+      sessionEncryptionKey: potato-secret-is-at-least-32-bytes-long
+      callbackURL: /oauth2/callback
+      logoutURL: /oauth2/logout
+      scopes:
+        - roles  # Appended to defaults: ["openid", "profile", "email", "roles"]
+      allowedRolesAndGroups:
+        - admin
+        - developer
+```
+
+### With Cookie Domain Configuration (Multi-Subdomain Setup)
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Middleware
+metadata:
+  name: oidc-multi-subdomain
+  namespace: traefik
+spec:

+      clientID: 1234567890.apps.googleusercontent.com
+      clientSecret: your-client-secret
+      sessionEncryptionKey: potato-secret-is-at-least-32-bytes-long
+      callbackURL: /oauth2/callback
+      logoutURL: /oauth2/logout
+      cookieDomain: .example.com  # Allows cookies to be shared across all subdomains
+      scopes:
+        - roles  # Appended to defaults: ["openid", "profile", "email", "roles"]
+```
+
+**Important**: The `cookieDomain` parameter is crucial when running behind a reverse proxy or when your application serves multiple subdomains. Without it, cookies may be created with inconsistent domains, leading to authentication issues like "CSRF token missing in session" errors.
+
+### With Custom Logging and Rate Limiting

+
+### Google OIDC Configuration Example
+
+This example shows a configuration specifically tailored for Google OIDC:
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Middleware
+metadata:
+  name: oidc-google
+  namespace: traefik
+spec:
+  plugin:
+    traefikoidc:
+      providerURL: https://accounts.google.com
+      clientID: your-google-client-id.apps.googleusercontent.com # Replace with your Client ID
+      clientSecret: your-google-client-secret                     # Replace with your Client Secret
+      sessionEncryptionKey: your-secure-encryption-key-min-32-chars # Replace with your key
+      callbackURL: /oauth2/callback                             # Adjust if needed
+      logoutURL: /oauth2/logout                                 # Optional: Adjust if needed
+      scopes:
+        - roles  # Appended to defaults: ["openid", "profile", "email", "roles"]
+        # Note: DO NOT manually add offline_access scope for Google
+        # The middleware automatically handles Google-specific requirements
+      refreshGracePeriodSeconds: 300  # Optional: Start refresh 5 min before expiry (default 60)
+      # Other optional parameters like allowedUserDomains, etc. can be added here
+```
+
+The middleware automatically detects Google as the provider and applies the necessary adjustments to ensure proper authentication and token refresh. See the [Google OAuth Fix](#google-oauth-compatibility-fix) section for details.
+
+### Keeping Secrets Secret in Kubernetes
+
+For Kubernetes environments, you can reference secrets instead of hardcoding sensitive values:
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Middleware
+metadata:
+  name: oidc-with-secrets
+  namespace: traefik
+spec:
+  plugin:
+    traefikoidc:
+      providerURL: urn:k8s:secret:traefik-middleware-oidc:ISSUER
+      clientID: urn:k8s:secret:traefik-middleware-oidc:CLIENT_ID
+      clientSecret: urn:k8s:secret:traefik-middleware-oidc:SECRET
+      sessionEncryptionKey: potato-secret-is-at-least-32-bytes-long
+      callbackURL: /oauth2/callback
+      logoutURL: /oauth2/logout
+      scopes:
+        - roles  # Appended to defaults: ["openid", "profile", "email", "roles"]
+```
+
+Don't forget to create the secret:
+
+```bash
+kubectl create secret generic traefik-middleware-oidc \
+  --from-literal=ISSUER=https://accounts.google.com \
+  --from-literal=CLIENT_ID=1234567890.apps.googleusercontent.com \
+  --from-literal=SECRET=your-client-secret \
+  -n traefik
+```

+
+## Advanced Configuration
+
+### Session Management
+
+The middleware uses encrypted cookies to manage user sessions. The `sessionEncryptionKey` must be at least 32 bytes long and should be kept secret.
+
+### PKCE Support
+
+The middleware supports PKCE (Proof Key for Code Exchange), which is an extension to the authorization code flow to prevent authorization code interception attacks. When enabled via the `enablePKCE` option, the middleware will generate a code verifier for each authentication request and derive a code challenge from it. The code verifier is stored in the user's session and sent during the token exchange process.
+
+PKCE is recommended when:
+- Your OIDC provider supports it (most modern providers do)
+- You need an additional layer of security for the authorization code flow
+- You're concerned about potential authorization code interception attacks
+
+Note that not all OIDC providers support PKCE, so check your provider's documentation before enabling this feature.
+
+### Session Duration and Token Refresh
+
+This middleware aims to provide long-lived user sessions, typically up to 24 hours, by utilizing OIDC refresh tokens.
+
+**How it works:**
+- When a user authenticates, the middleware requests an access token and, if available, a refresh token from the OIDC provider.
+- The access token usually has a short lifespan (e.g., 1 hour).
+- Before the access token expires (controlled by `refreshGracePeriodSeconds`), the middleware uses the refresh token to obtain a new access token from the provider without requiring the user to log in again.
+- This process repeats, allowing the session to remain valid for as long as the refresh token is valid (often 24 hours or more, depending on the provider).
+
+**Provider-Specific Considerations (e.g., Google):**
+- Some providers, like Google, issue short-lived access tokens (e.g., 1 hour) and require specific configurations for long-term sessions.
+- To enable session extension beyond the initial token expiry with Google and similar providers, the middleware automatically includes the `offline_access` scope in the authentication request. This scope is necessary to obtain a refresh token.
+- For Google specifically, the middleware also adds the `prompt=consent` parameter to the initial authorization request. This ensures Google issues a refresh token, which is crucial for extending the session.
+- If a refresh attempt fails (e.g., the refresh token is revoked or expired), the user will be required to re-authenticate. The middleware includes enhanced error handling and logging for these scenarios.
+- Ensure your OIDC provider is configured to issue refresh tokens and allows their use for extending sessions. Check your provider's documentation for details on refresh token validity periods.
+
+### Google OAuth Compatibility Fix
+
+The middleware includes a specific fix for Google's OAuth implementation, which differs from the standard OIDC specification in how it handles refresh tokens:
+
+- **Issue**: Google does not support the standard `offline_access` scope for requesting refresh tokens and instead requires special parameters.
+  
+- **Automatic Solution**: The middleware detects Google as the provider based on the issuer URL and:
+  - Uses `access_type=offline` query parameter instead of the `offline_access` scope
+  - Adds `prompt=consent` to ensure refresh tokens are consistently issued
+  - Properly handles token refresh with Google's implementation
+
+You do not need any special configuration to use Google OAuth - just set `providerURL` to `https://accounts.google.com` and the middleware will automatically apply the proper parameters.
+
+For detailed information on the Google OAuth fix, see the [dedicated documentation](docs/google-oauth-fix.md).
+
+### Token Caching and Blacklisting
+
+The middleware automatically caches validated tokens to improve performance and maintains a blacklist of revoked tokens.
+### Templated Headers
+
+The middleware supports setting custom HTTP headers with values templated from OIDC claims and tokens. This allows you to pass authentication information to downstream services in a flexible, customized format.
+
+Templates can access the following variables:
+- `{{.Claims.field}}` - Access individual claims from the ID token (e.g., `{{.Claims.email}}`, `{{.Claims.sub}}`)
+- `{{.AccessToken}}` - The raw access token string
+- `{{.IdToken}}` - The raw ID token string (same as AccessToken in most configurations)
+- `{{.RefreshToken}}` - The raw refresh token string
+
+**⚠️ Important: Template Escaping**
+
+If you encounter the error `can't evaluate field AccessToken in type bool` when starting Traefik, this indicates that Traefik is attempting to evaluate the template expressions before passing them to the plugin. This is a known issue when using template syntax in Traefik plugin configurations.
+
+**Solution:** You must escape the template expressions using double curly braces:
+
+```yaml
+headers:
+  - name: "Authorization"
+    value: "Bearer {{{{.AccessToken}}}}"
+```
+
+This is the only reliable method that works consistently. Here's why:
+
+- **Double curly braces (`{{{{.AccessToken}}}}`)** ✅
+  - The YAML parser converts `{{{{` → `{{` and `}}}}` → `}}`
+  - Result: `Bearer {{.AccessToken}}` reaches the Go template engine correctly
+
+- **Other methods (YAML literal style, single quotes) do NOT work** ❌
+  - These methods don't prevent Traefik's YAML parser from interpreting the curly braces
+  - The template syntax gets processed incorrectly before reaching the plugin
+
+**Working example configuration:**
+```yaml
+headers:
+  - name: "X-User-Email"
+    value: "{{{{.Claims.email}}}}"
+  - name: "X-User-ID"
+    value: "{{{{.Claims.sub}}}}"
+  - name: "Authorization"
+    value: "Bearer {{{{.AccessToken}}}}"
+  - name: "X-User-Name"
+    value: "{{{{.Claims.given_name}}}} {{{{.Claims.family_name}}}}"
+```
+
+**Advanced template examples:**
+
+Conditional logic:
+```yaml
+headers:
+  - name: "X-Is-Admin"
+    value: "{{{{if eq .Claims.role \"admin\"}}}}true{{{{else}}}}false{{{{end}}}}"
+```
+
+Array handling:
+```yaml
+headers:
+  - name: "X-User-Roles"
+    value: "{{{{range $i, $e := .Claims.roles}}}}{{{{if $i}}}},{{{{end}}}}{{{{$e}}}}{{{{end}}}}"
+```
+
+**Notes:**
+- Variable names are case-sensitive (use `.Claims`, not `.claims`)
+- Missing claims will result in `<no value>` in the header value
+- The middleware validates templates during startup and logs errors for invalid templates
+- Always use double curly braces (`{{{{` and `}}}}`) to escape template expressions in YAML configuration files
+
+### Default Headers Set for Downstream Services
+
+
+When a user is authenticated, the middleware sets the following headers for downstream services:
+
+- `X-Forwarded-User`: The user's email address
+- `X-User-Groups`: Comma-separated list of user groups (if available)
+- `X-User-Roles`: Comma-separated list of user roles (if available)
+- `X-Auth-Request-Redirect`: The original request URI
+- `X-Auth-Request-User`: The user's email address
+- `X-Auth-Request-Token`: The user's access token
+
+### Security Headers
+
+The middleware also sets the following security headers:
+
+- `X-Frame-Options: DENY`
+- `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff`
+- `X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block`
+- `Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin`
+
+## Provider Configuration Recommendations
+
+**Important: ID Token Validation**
+
+This Traefik OIDC plugin performs authentication and extracts user claims (like email, roles, groups) exclusively from the **ID Token** provided by your OIDC provider. It does not primarily use the Access Token for these critical functions. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure that all necessary claims are included in the ID Token itself. A common issue is that some OIDC providers might, by default, place certain claims only in the Access Token or UserInfo endpoint.
+
+This section provides guidance on configuring popular OIDC providers to work optimally with this plugin.
+
+### Keycloak
+
+Keycloak is highly configurable, which means you need to ensure your client mappers are set up correctly to include necessary claims in the ID Token.
+
+*   **Ensure Claims in ID Token**:
+    *   **Email**: Navigate to your Keycloak realm -> Clients -> Your Client ID -> Mappers. Ensure there's a mapper for 'email' (e.g., a "User Property" mapper for the `email` property) and that "Add to ID token" is **ON**.
+    *   **Roles**: For client roles or realm roles, create or edit mappers (e.g., "User Client Role" or "User Realm Role"). Ensure "Add to ID token" is **ON**. You might want to customize the "Token Claim Name" (e.g., to `roles` or `groups`).
+    *   **Groups**: Similarly, for group membership, use a "Group Membership" mapper and ensure "Add to ID token" is **ON**. Customize the "Token Claim Name" as needed (e.g., `groups`).
+*   **Scopes**: Ensure your client requests appropriate scopes that trigger the inclusion of these claims if your mappers are scope-dependent. The default `openid`, `profile`, `email` scopes are a good starting point.
+*   **Troubleshooting**: If claims are missing, double-check the "Mappers" tab for your client in Keycloak. The "Token Claim Name" you define here is what you'll use in the `allowedRolesAndGroups` or `headers` configuration in this plugin. (See also the [Troubleshooting](#troubleshooting) section for Keycloak).
+
+### Azure AD (Microsoft Entra ID)
+
+Azure AD generally works well with standard OIDC configurations.
+
+*   **ID Token Claims**: Azure AD typically includes standard claims like `email`, `name`, `preferred_username`, and `oid` (Object ID) in the ID Token by default when `openid profile email` scopes are requested.
+*   **Group Claims**: To include group claims in the ID Token, you need to configure this in the Azure AD application registration:
+    *   Go to your App Registration -> Token configuration -> Add groups claim.
+    *   You can choose which types of groups (Security groups, Directory roles, All groups) to include.
+    *   Be aware of the "overage" issue: If a user is a member of too many groups, Azure AD will send a link to fetch groups instead of embedding them. This plugin currently expects group claims to be directly in the ID token. For users with many groups, consider alternative role/permission management strategies.
+    *   The claim name for groups is typically `groups`.
+*   **Optional Claims**: You can add other optional claims via the "Token configuration" section of your App Registration. Ensure these are configured for the ID token.
+*   **Endpoints**: The `providerURL` should be `https://login.microsoftonline.com/{your-tenant-id}/v2.0`. The plugin will auto-discover the necessary endpoints.
+*   **Optimization**: Ensure your application manifest in Azure AD is configured for the desired token version (v1.0 or v2.0). This plugin works with v2.0 endpoints.
+
+### Google Workspace / Google Cloud Identity
+
+Google's OIDC implementation is well-supported.
+
+*   **Optimal Configuration**: The plugin automatically handles Google-specific requirements, such as using `access_type=offline` and `prompt=consent` to ensure refresh tokens are issued for long-lived sessions. You do not need to add `offline_access` to scopes.
+*   **ID Token Claims**: Google includes standard claims like `email`, `sub`, `name`, `given_name`, `family_name`, `picture` in the ID Token by default with `openid profile email` scopes.
+*   **Hosted Domain (hd claim)**: If you are using Google Workspace and want to restrict access to users within your organization's domain, Google includes an `hd` (hosted domain) claim in the ID Token. You can use this with the `allowedUserDomains` setting or for custom header logic.
+*   **Best Practices**:
+    *   Use the `providerURL`: `https://accounts.google.com`.
+    *   Ensure your OAuth consent screen in Google Cloud Console is configured correctly and published. For production, it should be "External" and in "Production" status. "Testing" status limits refresh token lifetime.
+    *   Refer to the [Google OAuth Compatibility Fix](#google-oauth-compatibility-fix) section for more details on how the plugin handles Google's specifics.
+
+### Auth0
+
+Auth0 is generally OIDC compliant and works well.
+
+*   **ID Token Claims**:
+    *   To add custom claims or standard claims not included by default (like roles or permissions) to the ID Token, you'll need to use Auth0 Rules or Actions.
+    *   **Using Actions (Recommended)**: Create a custom Action that runs after login to add claims to the ID Token. Example:
+        ```javascript
+        // Auth0 Action to add email and roles to ID Token
+        exports.onExecutePostLogin = async (event, api) => {
+          const namespace = 'https://your-app.com/'; // Or your custom namespace
+          if (event.authorization) {
+            api.idToken.setCustomClaim(namespace + 'roles', event.authorization.roles);
+            api.idToken.setCustomClaim('email', event.user.email); // Standard claim, ensure it's there
+            // Add other claims as needed
+          }
+        };
+        ```
+    *   Ensure the claims you add (e.g., `https://your-app.com/roles`) are then used in the plugin's `allowedRolesAndGroups` or `headers` configuration.
+*   **Scopes**: Request appropriate scopes. You might need custom scopes if your Actions/Rules depend on them to add specific claims.
+*   **Endpoints**: Your `providerURL` will be `https://your-auth0-domain.auth0.com`.
+*   **Logout**: Ensure `postLogoutRedirectURI` is registered in your Auth0 application settings under "Allowed Logout URLs".
+
+### Generic OIDC Providers
+
+For other OIDC providers (e.g., Okta, Zitadel, self-hosted solutions):
+
+*   **ID Token is Key**: The primary requirement is that all claims needed for authentication decisions (email, roles, groups, custom attributes for headers) **must** be included in the ID Token.
+*   **Check Provider Documentation**: Consult your OIDC provider's documentation on how to:
+    *   Configure client applications.
+    *   Map user attributes, roles, or group memberships to claims in the ID Token.
+    *   Define custom scopes if they are necessary to include certain claims.
+*   **Standard Endpoints**: Ensure your provider exposes a standard OIDC discovery document (`.well-known/openid-configuration`) at the `providerURL`. The plugin uses this to find authorization, token, JWKS, and end_session endpoints.
+*   **Scopes**: Always include `openid` in your scopes. `profile` and `email` are generally recommended. Add other scopes as required by your provider to release specific claims to the ID Token.
+*   **Troubleshooting**: If the plugin isn't working as expected (e.g., access denied, claims missing), the first step is to decode the ID Token received from your provider (e.g., using jwt.io) to verify its contents. This will show you exactly what claims the plugin is seeing.
+
+For common issues and general troubleshooting, please refer to the [Troubleshooting](#troubleshooting) section.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Logging
+
+Set the `logLevel` to `debug` to get more detailed logs:
+
+```yaml
+logLevel: debug
+```
+
+### Common Issues
+
+1. **Token verification failed**: Check that your `providerURL` is correct and accessible.
+2. **Session encryption key too short**: Ensure your `sessionEncryptionKey` is at least 32 bytes long.
+3. **No matching public key found**: The JWKS endpoint might be unavailable or the token's key ID (kid) doesn't match any key in the JWKS.
+4. **Access denied: Your email domain is not allowed**: The user's email domain is not in the `allowedUserDomains` list.
+5. **Access denied: You do not have any of the allowed roles or groups**: The user doesn't have any of the roles or groups specified in `allowedRolesAndGroups`.
+6. **"can't evaluate field AccessToken in type bool" error**: This error occurs when Traefik attempts to evaluate template expressions in the headers configuration before passing them to the plugin. To fix this:
+   - Use double curly braces to escape template expressions: `value: "Bearer {{{{.AccessToken}}}}"`
+   - This is the only reliable method that works with Traefik's YAML parsing
+   - See the [Templated Headers](#templated-headers) section for complete examples
+7. **Google sessions expire after ~1 hour**: If using Google as the OIDC provider and sessions expire prematurely (around 1 hour instead of longer), ensure:
+   - Do NOT manually add the `offline_access` scope. Google rejects this scope as invalid.
+   - The middleware automatically applies the required Google parameters (`access_type=offline` and `prompt=consent`).
+   - Your Google Cloud OAuth consent screen is set to "External" and "Production" mode. "Testing" mode often limits refresh token validity.
+   - Verify you're using a version of the middleware that includes the Google OAuth compatibility fix.
+   - For more details, see the [Google OAuth Compatibility Fix](#google-oauth-compatibility-fix) section or the [detailed documentation](docs/google-oauth-fix.md).
+
+8.  **Keycloak: Claims Missing from ID Token (e.g., email, roles)**
+
+    If you are using Keycloak and claims like `email`, `roles`, or `groups` are missing from the ID Token, this plugin may not function as expected (e.g., for domain restrictions or RBAC).
+    *   **Solution**: This plugin validates the **ID Token**. You **must** configure Keycloak client mappers to add all necessary claims (email, roles, groups, etc.) to the ID Token.
+    *   For detailed instructions, please see the [Keycloak](#keycloak) section under [Provider Configuration Recommendations](#provider-configuration-recommendations).

+# Google OAuth Integration Fix
+
+## Problem Overview
+
+The Traefik OIDC plugin encountered an authentication issue when using Google as an OAuth provider. Authentication would fail with the following error:
+
+```
+Some requested scopes were invalid. {valid=[openid, https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email, https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile], invalid=[offline_access]}
+```
+
+This occurred because Google's OAuth implementation differs from the standard OIDC specification in how it handles refresh tokens and offline access.
+
+## Technical Details of the Issue
+
+### Standard OIDC Provider Behavior
+
+Most OpenID Connect (OIDC) providers follow the standard specification, where:
+- To obtain a refresh token, clients include the `offline_access` scope in their authorization request
+- This allows authenticated sessions to persist beyond the initial access token expiration
+
+### Google's Non-Standard Approach
+
+Google's OAuth implementation deviates from the standard by:
+1. Not supporting the `offline_access` scope, instead rejecting it as an invalid scope
+2. Requiring the `access_type=offline` query parameter for requesting refresh tokens
+3. Needing the `prompt=consent` parameter to consistently issue refresh tokens (especially for repeat authentications)
+
+This difference caused the plugin to fail when configured for Google OAuth, as it was using a standard approach that didn't work with Google's implementation.
+
+## Solution Implementation
+
+The fix involved modifying the authentication flow to specifically handle Google providers:
+
+1. **Google Provider Detection**: Added code to detect if the OIDC provider is Google based on the issuer URL:
+
+```go
+// Check if we're dealing with a Google OIDC provider
+isGoogleProvider := strings.Contains(t.issuerURL, "google") || 
+                   strings.Contains(t.issuerURL, "accounts.google.com")
+```
+
+2. **Provider-Specific Auth URL Building**: Modified the `buildAuthURL` function to handle Google and non-Google providers differently:
+
+```go
+// Handle offline access differently for Google vs other providers
+if isGoogleProvider {
+    // For Google, use access_type=offline parameter instead of offline_access scope
+    params.Set("access_type", "offline")
+    t.logger.Debug("Google OIDC provider detected, added access_type=offline for refresh tokens")
+
+    // Add prompt=consent for Google to ensure refresh token is issued
+    params.Set("prompt", "consent")
+    t.logger.Debug("Google OIDC provider detected, added prompt=consent to ensure refresh tokens")
+} else {
+    // For non-Google providers, use the offline_access scope
+    hasOfflineAccess := false
+    for _, scope := range scopes {
+        if scope == "offline_access" {
+            hasOfflineAccess = true
+            break
+        }
+    }
+
+    if !hasOfflineAccess {
+        scopes = append(scopes, "offline_access")
+    }
+}
+```
+
+3. **Token Refresh Enhancement**: Improved the token refresh logic to better handle Google's behavior, particularly when refresh tokens aren't returned in refresh responses (as Google often uses the same refresh token for multiple requests).
+
+## Why This Approach Works
+
+This solution aligns with Google's OAuth 2.0 documentation which specifies:
+
+1. **Access Type Parameter**: Google's [OAuth 2.0 documentation](https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/web-server#offline) states that to request a refresh token, applications must include `access_type=offline` in the authorization request.
+
+2. **Prompt Parameter**: The [`prompt=consent`](https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/web-server#forceapprovalprompt) parameter forces the consent screen to appear, ensuring a refresh token is issued even if the user has previously granted access.
+
+3. **Scope Validation**: Google strictly validates scopes and rejects non-standard ones like `offline_access`, instead relying on the `access_type` parameter to indicate whether a refresh token should be issued.
+
+By adapting to these Google-specific requirements, the OIDC plugin can now seamlessly work with both standard OIDC providers and Google's OAuth implementation.
+
+## Testing and Verification
+
+Comprehensive tests were implemented to verify the solution:
+
+1. **Provider Detection Test**: Ensures the code correctly identifies Google providers and applies the appropriate parameters.
+
+2. **Auth URL Parameter Tests**: Verifies that:
+   - For Google providers: `access_type=offline` and `prompt=consent` are included; `offline_access` scope is NOT included
+   - For non-Google providers: `offline_access` scope IS included; `access_type` parameter is NOT added
+
+3. **Token Refresh Tests**: Validates that Google's token refresh process works correctly, including the preservation of refresh tokens when Google doesn't return a new one.
+
+4. **Integration Test**: Tests the complete authentication flow with a mocked Google provider to ensure all components work together seamlessly.
+
+Sample test case (simplified):
+
+```go
+t.Run("Google provider detection adds required parameters", func(t *testing.T) {
+    // Test buildAuthURL to ensure it adds access_type=offline and prompt=consent for Google
+    authURL := tOidc.buildAuthURL("https://example.com/callback", "state123", "nonce123", "")
+
+    // Check that access_type=offline was added (not offline_access scope for Google)
+    if !strings.Contains(authURL, "access_type=offline") {
+        t.Errorf("access_type=offline not added to Google auth URL: %s", authURL)
+    }
+
+    // Verify offline_access scope is NOT included for Google providers
+    if strings.Contains(authURL, "offline_access") {
+        t.Errorf("offline_access scope incorrectly added to Google auth URL: %s", authURL)
+    }
+
+    // Check that prompt=consent was added
+    if !strings.Contains(authURL, "prompt=consent") {
+        t.Errorf("prompt=consent not added to Google auth URL: %s", authURL)
+    }
+})
+```
+
+## Usage Guidance for Developers
+
+When configuring the Traefik OIDC middleware for Google:
+
+1. **Provider URL**: Use `https://accounts.google.com` as the `providerURL` value
+
+2. **Client Configuration**: Create OAuth 2.0 credentials in the Google Cloud Console:
+   - Configure the authorized redirect URI to match your `callbackURL` setting
+   - Ensure your OAuth consent screen is properly configured (especially if you want long-lived refresh tokens)
+
+3. **Configuration Example**:
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Middleware
+metadata:
+  name: oidc-google
+  namespace: traefik
+spec:
+  plugin:
+    traefikoidc:
+      providerURL: https://accounts.google.com
+      clientID: your-google-client-id.apps.googleusercontent.com
+      clientSecret: your-google-client-secret
+      sessionEncryptionKey: your-secure-encryption-key-min-32-chars
+      callbackURL: /oauth2/callback
+      scopes:
+        - openid
+        - email
+        - profile
+        # Note: DO NOT manually add offline_access scope for Google
+        # The middleware handles this automatically and correctly
+```
+
+4. **Troubleshooting**: If sessions still expire prematurely with Google (typically after 1 hour):
+   - Ensure your Google Cloud OAuth consent screen is set to "External" and "Production" mode (not "Testing" mode, which limits refresh token validity)
+   - Review your application logs with `logLevel: debug` to check for refresh token errors
+   - Verify you're using a version of the middleware that includes this fix
+
+## Conclusion
+
+This fix ensures that the Traefik OIDC plugin works seamlessly with Google's OAuth implementation without requiring users to make provider-specific configuration changes. The middleware now intelligently adapts to the provider's requirements, making it more robust and user-friendly while maintaining compatibility with the standard OIDC specification for other providers.

-Objx provides the `objx.Map` type, which is a `map[string]interface{}` that exposes a powerful `Get` method (among others) that allows you to easily and quickly get access to data within the map, without having to worry too much about type assertions, missing data, default values etc.
-
-### Pattern
-Objx uses a predictable pattern to make access data from within `map[string]interface{}` easy. Call one of the `objx.` functions to create your `objx.Map` to get going:
-
-    m, err := objx.FromJSON(json)
-
-NOTE: Any methods or functions with the `Must` prefix will panic if something goes wrong, the rest will be optimistic and try to figure things out without panicking.
-
-Use `Get` to access the value you're interested in.  You can use dot and array
-notation too:
-
-     m.Get("places[0].latlng")
-
-Once you have sought the `Value` you're interested in, you can use the `Is*` methods to determine its type.
-
-     if m.Get("code").IsStr() { // Your code... }
-
-Or you can just assume the type, and use one of the strong type methods to extract the real value:
-
-    m.Get("code").Int()
-
-If there's no value there (or if it's the wrong type) then a default value will be returned, or you can be explicit about the default value.
-
-     Get("code").Int(-1)
-
-If you're dealing with a slice of data as a value, Objx provides many useful methods for iterating, manipulating and selecting that data.  You can find out more by exploring the index below.
-
-### Reading data
-A simple example of how to use Objx:
-
-    // Use MustFromJSON to make an objx.Map from some JSON
-    m := objx.MustFromJSON(`{"name": "Mat", "age": 30}`)
-
-    // Get the details
-    name := m.Get("name").Str()
-    age := m.Get("age").Int()
-
-    // Get their nickname (or use their name if they don't have one)
-    nickname := m.Get("nickname").Str(name)
-
-### Ranging
-Since `objx.Map` is a `map[string]interface{}` you can treat it as such.  For example, to `range` the data, do what you would expect:
-
-    m := objx.MustFromJSON(json)
-    for key, value := range m {
-      // Your code...
-    }
-
-## Installation
-To install Objx, use go get:
-
-    go get github.com/stretchr/objx
-
-### Staying up to date
-To update Objx to the latest version, run:
-
-    go get -u github.com/stretchr/objx
-
-### Supported go versions
-We currently support the three recent major Go versions.
