f4f43f5248 docs: fix broken GitHub code-reference blocks after fumadocs migration (#12213)
# Which Problems Are Solved

Pages in `apps/docs` that embed source from GitHub via the Docusaurus
convention

````
```js reference

https://github.com/zitadel/actions/blob/main/examples/org_metadata_claim.js
```
````

stopped working after the migration from Docusaurus to fumadocs. The old
`docusaurus-theme-github-codeblock` plugin used to fetch the file and
render it; fumadocs has no support for that meta, so the page rendered
the raw URL as plain code-block text. Visible at
`/docs/apis/actions/code-examples` and 16 other pages.

# How the Problems Are Solved

- Converted every ```` ```<lang> reference\n<URL>\n``` ```` block (46
total across 17 `.mdx` files) to the native fumadocs JSX form:
`<GithubCodeBlock url="<URL>" />`. The existing `<details>`/`<summary>`
collapsibles around blocks are kept — they're an authoring choice, not
part of the rendering bug.
- Updated `apps/docs/components/github-code-block.tsx` to render via
`DynamicCodeBlock` from `fumadocs-ui/components/dynamic-codeblock`
(proper shiki highlighting) instead of raw `CodeBlock` + `Pre` (which
produced unhighlighted output). Also fixed language detection so a URL
hash like `#L10-L20` no longer pollutes the language token.
- Registered `GithubCodeBlock` globally in
`apps/docs/mdx-components.tsx`, matching how every other shared
component (`APIPage`, `Callout`, `Tab/Tabs`, `Step/Steps`, `Admonition`,
`TerminologyUpdate`) is exposed. MDX files no longer need a local
`import`.

# Additional Changes

- Normalized the two MDX files that were already using the JSX form
(`examples/secure-api/python-django.mdx`,
`examples/secure-api/java-spring.mdx`): removed their now-redundant
local `import { GithubCodeBlock }` and rewrote 9 long-form
`<GithubCodeBlock url="..."></GithubCodeBlock>` tags to self-closing for
consistency.

# Additional Context

Verified locally with `pnpm --filter @zitadel/docs dev`:

- `/docs/apis/actions/code-examples` — 20 shiki-highlighted code blocks
rendered inside the `<details>` collapsibles (was 0).
- `/docs/apis/openidoauth/claims` — line-range hashes (`#L9-L11`)
honored.
- `/docs/examples/login/flutter` — mixed languages (xml/dart/html)
detected and highlighted.
- `/docs/guides/integrate/external-audit-log` — edge case of fenced
reference indented inside a numbered list also converted and rendered.

Greps:
- `^[ \t]*\`\`\`[a-zA-Z0-9]+ reference` in `apps/docs/content/**/*.mdx`
→ 0 matches.
- `<GithubCodeBlock url="` in `apps/docs/content/**/*.mdx` → 55 matches.
- `from '@/components/github-code-block'` in
`apps/docs/content/**/*.mdx` → 0 matches.

Click on the ZITADEL Callback URL to copy it to your clipboard.
You will have to paste it in the OKTA application later.

## OKTA Configuration
### Register a new client
1. Login to your OKTA Account and go to the applications list: `OKTA-DOMAIN/admin/apps/active^
2. Click on "Create App Integration" and choose "OIDC - OpenID Connect"
3. Choose Web application as Application type and give a name
4. [Paste the ZITADEL Callback URL you copied before](#open-the-generic-oidc-provider-template) to the Sign-in redirect URIs
5. Save the clientid and client secret
![](../../../../public/img/guides/okta_add_app.png)
## ZITADEL Setup
1. Go back [to the Generic OIDC Provider template you opened before in ZITADEL](#open-the-generic-oidc-provider-template).
2. Add the [client ID and secret created before on your Web application](#register-a-new-client).
3. Give the provider a name, e.g. OKTA. This name will be displayed on the login screen button.
4. Add the issuer URL of your OKTA account, e.g. `https://trial-1925566.okta.com`
You can optionally configure the following settings.
A useful default will be filled if you don't change anything.
**Scopes**: The scopes define which scopes will be sent to the provider, `openid`, `profile`, and `email` are prefilled.
This information will be taken to create/update the user within ZITADEL.
ZITADEL ensures that at least the `openid`-scope is always sent.
**Use PKCE**: If enabled, the provider will use Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE) to secure the authorization code flow
in addition to the client secret.
