Switch to another OIDC Provider

[konkos1]

I want to switch my OIDC provider from Authentik to Pocket ID.
Unfortunately all my photos and videos will remain with the user created by Authentik.
Is it somehow possible to change the ownership to the User created by Pocket ID?

I believe you should just need to go into the admin panel in immich. Unlink all oidc accounts. Then just make sure the pocketid email matches what's in immich when resigning up.

Unfortunately this will not work, since the new user (created by Pocket ID) will have a new user ID within immich - I tried this approach already

You need something to link them I think. I was able to switch from Authentik to PocketId because of shared emails. Not sure if there's another way.

But I also tried with the same email - it didn't work for me --> immich error User already exists, but is linked to another account

You hit this before removing Authentik as your provider?

[konkos1]

Nooo 😢 - didn't see this, since I manage the settings within local config file rather than the UI...

You can try and click it now, but you may need to go in to the sql and clear out the oauth column in the users table.

I've reset my immich LXC to a backup a few days ago, then hit the button you've mentioned and changed the OIDC to my new Pocket ID -> now it works 😃
Thank you @schuhbacca
