That’s right. As per [Discourse OpenID Connect (OIDC)](https://meta.discourse.org/t/openid-connect-authentication-plugin/103632/), you’ll need to install the [GitHub - discourse/discourse-openid-connect: Allows an OpenID Connect provider to be used as an authentication provider for Discourse · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse-openid-connect) plugin.

Some functionality is a part of Discourse (core) and is included in the base Docker image. The rest of it (OpenID Connect, custom Oath2 and other plugins) can be added through our 100% free and open source [official plugins](https://meta.discourse.org/tags/c/plugin/22/official) by following [Install plugins on a self-hosted site](https://meta.discourse.org/t/install-plugins-in-discourse/19157). When you’re self-hosting, you can install any plugins (regardless of tier) because they are all available here on Meta and are open source.
