## What happened?

I came accross Pomerium and found it really interessting. I am thinking of using it to get the user authentification under the same easy roof.

Now I am not sure what Pomerium is truly capable of. I want to use different services that are not natively supported by Pomerium (e.g. Gitea, Outline (Wiki), Jenkins or TeamCity, etc). How does the authentification work for them? Do I need to log into them seperatly or does Pomerium support these applications to (Maybe some software or protocol I am not aware of) and what does the software I want to use bring to allow the usage of Pomerium.

Thanks for reading

Pomerium may send an [identity assertion token](https://www.pomerium.com/docs/topics/original-request-context) to an upstream application that may be understood by some applications, i.e. check out the [Grafana guide](https://www.pomerium.com/docs/guides/grafana)

Many apps support this method of authentication, i.e. for Jenkins, you probably should be able to use [this plugin](https://plugins.jenkins.io/jwt-auth/).
