Basic Authentication {#Basic Auth}

::: {.contents local=""} :::

To enable basic authentication for Dagu, follow these steps:

Set the environment variables to configure basic authentication:
```
export DAGU_IS_BASIC_AUTH=1
export DAGU_BASIC_AUTH_USERNAME="<your-username>"
export DAGU_BASIC_AUTH_PASSWORD="<your-password>"
```
Replace <your-username> and <your-password> with your desired username and password.
Alternatively, create an admin.yaml file in the $DAGU_HOME directory (default: $HOME/.dagu/) to override the default configuration values. Add the following lines under the # Basic Auth section:
```
# Basic Auth
isBasicAuth: true
basicAuthUsername: "<your-username>"
basicAuthPassword: "<your-password>"
```
You can enable HTTPS by configuring the following environment variables:
```
export DAGU_CERT_FILE="<path-to-cert-file>"
export DAGU_KEY_FILE="<path-to-key-file>"
```
Replace <path-to-cert-file> and <path-to-key-file> with the paths to your certificate and key files.

See Configuration Options{.interpreted-text role=“ref”} for more information on the configuration file.
