Dear team,  
I’m trying to use Pomerium to work as a Identity-Aware Proxy in Azure AKS. I followed the Pomerium Kubernetes Quickstart ([Kubernetes Quickstart | Pomerium](https://www.pomerium.com/docs/deploy/k8s/quickstart)) and worked fine. After that, I followed the [installation](https://www.pomerium.com/docs/deploy/k8s/install), [global configuration](https://www.pomerium.com/docs/deploy/k8s/configure) and [ingress configuration](https://www.pomerium.com/docs/deploy/k8s/ingress). If I use the Hosted Authenticate service, everything works fine.

Any help would be appreciated team.

This is the Global configuration:

```auto
apiVersion: ingress.pomerium.io/v1
kind: Pomerium
metadata:
  name: global
spec:
  secrets: pomerium/bootstrap
  authenticate:
      url: https://authenticate.pomerium.app
  certificates:
      - pomerium/pomerium-wildcard-tls

```

## What happened?

If I try to use a different IDP provider (I’ve tried with Okta, Github and Azure AD), I get the error **ERR\_TOO\_MANY\_REDIRECTS** when I try to access to a service only for authenticated users.

This is the Global configuration:

```auto
---
apiVersion: ingress.pomerium.io/v1
kind: Pomerium
metadata:
  name: global
spec:
  authenticate:
    url: https://auth.dev.example.com
  cookie:
    domain: auth.dev.example.com
  certificates:
    - pomerium/my-tls-wildcard-secret
  identityProvider:
    provider: azure
    url: https://login.microsoftonline.com/tenant-id/v2.0
    secret: pomerium/azure
  secrets: pomerium/bootstrap

```

This is what I can see into the browser network when I try to go to one of the protected services:

[https://nginx-promerium.dev.example.com](https://nginx-promerium.dev.example.com)

However, I’m able to go to the same internal service using the annotation: allow\_public\_unauthenticated\_access

[https://nginx-pomerium-unauth.dev.example.com](https://nginx-pomerium-unauth.dev.example.com)

If I try to go to verify page, I get the same **ERR\_TOO\_MANY\_REDIRECTS**.

Nevertheless, I’m able to go the auth page:

[https://auth.dev.example.com/.pomerium/](https://auth.dev.example.com/.pomerium/)

## What’s your environment like?

- Pomerium version (retrieve with `pomerium --version`): v0.25.2
- Server Operating System/Architecture/Cloud: Azure AKS - Kubernetes version 1.28.5

## What’s your ingress conf?
