# Authentication |
Use `authNext` to split access into **public**, **console**, and **user** routes. |
Defaults with authNext: |
- All routes are private unless listed in `publicRoutes`. |
- Console routes require `VOLTAGENT_CONSOLE_ACCESS_KEY`. |
- Execution routes require a user token (JWT). |
For details, see [Authentication API](/docs/api/authentication). |
## Quick Setup |
```typescript |
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai"; |
import { Agent, VoltAgent } from "@voltagent/core"; |
import { honoServer } from "@voltagent/server-hono"; |
import { jwtAuth } from "@voltagent/server-core"; |
const agent = new Agent({ |
name: "Agent", |
instructions: "Assistant for auth example", |
model: openai("gpt-4o-mini"), |
}); |
new VoltAgent({ |
agents: { agent }, |
server: honoServer({ |
authNext: { |
provider: jwtAuth({ |
secret: process.env.JWT_SECRET || "your-secret-key", |
}), |
publicRoutes: ["GET /api/health"], |
}, |
}), |
}); |
``` |
## Console Access Key |
Set the key on the server: |
```bash |
VOLTAGENT_CONSOLE_ACCESS_KEY=your-console-key |
``` |
Send it for console routes (agents, workflows, tools, docs, observability, updates): |
```bash |
curl http://localhost:3141/agents \ |
-H "x-console-access-key: your-console-key" |
``` |
## User Auth Requests |
Include the JWT token in the Authorization header: |
```bash |
curl -X POST http://localhost:3141/agents/agent/text \ |
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \ |
-H "Authorization: Bearer <your-token>" \ |
-d '{"input":"Hello"}' |
``` |
## Custom Public Routes |
Define routes that don't require authentication: |
```typescript |
authNext: { |
provider: jwtAuth({ secret: "your-secret" }), |
publicRoutes: ["GET /api/health", "GET /api/status"], |
}, |
``` |
## Adding Custom Endpoints |
```typescript |
server: honoServer({ |
authNext: { |
provider: jwtAuth({ secret: "your-secret" }), |
publicRoutes: ["GET /api/health"], |
}, |
configureApp: (app) => { |
app.get("/api/health", (c) => c.json({ status: "ok" })); |
app.get("/api/protected", (c) => c.json({ message: "Authenticated!" })); |
}, |
}); |
``` |
