It is most common to use the `immediate` flag instead of `on_welcome_page`.
## Native OIDC
Native OIDC support is currently in labs and is subject to change.
Static OIDC Client IDs are preferred and can be specified under `oidc_static_clients` as a mapping from `issuer` to configuration object containing `client_id`.
Issuer must have a trailing forward slash. As an example:
```json
{
"oidc_static_clients": {
"https://auth.example.com/": {
"client_id": "example-client-id"
}
}
}
```
If a matching static client is not found, the app will attempt to dynamically register a client using metadata specified under `oidc_metadata`.
The following subproperties are available:
1. `client_uri`: This is the base URI for the OIDC client registration, typically `logo_uri`, `tos_uri`, and `policy_uri` must be either on the same domain or a subdomain of this URI.
2. `logo_uri`: Optional URI for the client logo.
3. `tos_uri`: Optional URI for the client's terms of service.
4. `policy_uri`: Optional URI for the client's privacy policy.
5. `contacts`: Optional list of contact emails for the client.
As an example:
```json
{
"oidc_metadata": {
"client_uri": "https://example.com",
"logo_uri": "https://example.com/logo.png",
"tos_uri": "https://example.com/tos",
"policy_uri": "https://example.com/policy",
"contacts": ["support@example.com"]
}
}
```
## VoIP / Jitsi calls
Currently, Element uses Jitsi to offer conference calls in rooms, with an experimental Element Call implementation in the works.
