+Authentication guide - Mattermost (self-hosted)
+===
+
+*Note: The Mattermost setup portion of this document is just a quick guide. See the [official documentation](https://docs.mattermost.com/developer/oauth-2-0-applications.html) for more details.*
+
+This guide uses the generic OAuth2 module for compatibility with Mattermost version 5.0 and above.
+
+1. Sign-in with an administrator account to your Mattermost instance
+2. Make sure **OAuth 2.0 Service Provider** is enabled in the Main Menu (menu button next to your username in the top left corner) --> System Console --> Custom Integrations menu, which you can find at `https://your.mattermost.domain/admin_console/integrations/custom`

+
+3. Navigate to the OAuth integration settings through Main Menu --> Integrations --> OAuth 2.0 Applications, at `https://your.mattermost.domain/yourteam/integrations/oauth2-apps`
+4. Click on the **Add OAuth 2.0 Application** button to add a new OAuth application
+

+
+5. Fill out the form and click **Save**

+
+*Note: The callback URL is \<your-codimd-url\>/auth/oauth2/callback*
+
+6. After saving the application, you'll receive the Client ID and Client Secret

+
+7. Add the Client ID and Client Secret to your config.json file or pass them as environment variables
+    * config.json:
+      ````javascript
