Description
__Proposal:__
Chronogrph has already [OAuth ](https://docs.influxdata.com/chronograf/v1.8/administration/managing-security/) to authenticate users. Currently this is not supported with InfluxDB OSS.

__Current behavior:__
Authentication via local login
__Desired behavior:__
Authentication via an Identity Provider like Auth0
__Use case:__
To enable more secure user management that is able to integrate with current user management solutions.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked Chronograf OAuth documentation and the current local-login behavior in InfluxDB OSS. Define the supported Identity Provider flow, configuration needs, and acceptance criteria for authentication through Auth0 or a similar provider; the issue names no files or tests to begin with.
