+## Configuration
+
+Outposts fetch their configuration from authentik. Below are all the options you can set, and how they influence the outpost.
+
+```yaml
+# Log level that the outpost will set
+log_level: debug
+# Enable/disable error reporting for the outpost, based on the authentik settings
+error_reporting_enabled: true
+error_reporting_environment: beryjuorg-prod
+########################################
+# The settings below are only relevant when using a managed outpost
+########################################
+# URL that the outpost uses to connect back to authentik
+authentik_host: https://authentik.tld/
+# Disable SSL Validation for the authentik connection
+authentik_host_insecure: false
+# Template used for objects created (deployments, services, secrets, etc)
+object_naming_template: ak-outpost-%(name)s
+########################################
+# Kubernetes outpost specific settings

+# Namespace to deploy in, defaults to the same namespace authentik is deployed in (if available)
