OIDC Federation (Secure Backend Access)

Vercel OIDC federation is for secure backend access — letting your deployed Vercel functions authenticate with third-party services (AWS, GCP, HashiCorp Vault) without storing long-lived secrets. It does not replace VERCEL_TOKEN for CLI deployments.

What OIDC does: Your Vercel function requests a short-lived OIDC token from Vercel at runtime, then exchanges it with an external provider's STS/token endpoint for scoped credentials.

What OIDC does not do: Authenticate vercel pull/build/deploy in CI; those need a Vercel access token. Only vcr and Remote Cache offer CI-side OIDC exchanges.

When to use OIDC:

  • Serverless functions that need to call AWS APIs (S3, DynamoDB, SQS)
  • Functions authenticating to GCP services via Workload Identity Federation
  • Any runtime service-to-service auth where you want to avoid storing static secrets in Vercel env vars
