Murtaza, First, you need to either
(a) :allow-anon? false in the configuration map you provide to friend/authenticate — it is true by default, or (b) Use an authorization guard (which can include friend/authenticated, which reuses the authorization mechanism to ensure that only authenticated users' requests can cause the enclosed code to be evaluated) Either option will redirect to whatever you have configured as :login-uri (default "/login"). Also, openid-uri is not where the provider's URI goes; that's what configures the URI that the OpenId workflow is bound to e.g. for receiving the redirect from the provider after the user has authenticated with them. So, you'd want :openid-uri to be something like "/openid". It is generally the case that the OpenId workflow is initiated by the user by clicking on one of a couple of different buttons, or specifying their OpenId URL manually. This is what you would put on the /login page. You can see different takes on this this at http://www.clojureatlas.com/login and http://stackoverflow.com/users/login. I suppose you *could* start the OpenId workflow automatically, but that might be a jarring experience for your users: because you can't control the presentation / branding of the OpenId provider's authentication flow, unauthenticated users may get confused, or think they've wandered into an attempt to obtain their e.g. Google credentials. However, I can see use cases for this — maybe when the users know a particular site always uses credentials from a particular site, or for internal apps where an OpenId SSO is ubiquitous and expected. FWIW, I'll add an example for that option (as well as the more common form-initiated style) to the set of example applications I'm slowly building for Friend: https://friend-demo.herokuapp.com/ I haven't publicly announced that app/effort yet — mostly because I want to get a certain minimum number of example apps spiked out with non-hideous presentation before blowing the trumpets. Anyway, I hope the content above is helpful. Let me know if you have any other questions...
