# Configuring Synapse to authenticate against an OpenID Connect provider
|
||
|
||
Synapse can be configured to use an OpenID Connect Provider (OP) for
|
||
authentication, instead of its own local password database.
|
||
|
||
Any OP should work with Synapse, as long as it supports the authorization code
|
||
flow. There are a few options for that:
|
||
|
||
- start a local OP. Synapse has been tested with [Hydra][hydra] and
|
||
[Dex][dex-idp]. Note that for an OP to work, it should be served under a
|
||
secure (HTTPS) origin. A certificate signed with a self-signed, locally
|
||
trusted CA should work. In that case, start Synapse with a `SSL_CERT_FILE`
|
||
environment variable set to the path of the CA.
|
||
|
||
- set up a SaaS OP, like [Google][google-idp], [Auth0][auth0] or
|
||
[Okta][okta]. Synapse has been tested with Auth0 and Google.
|
||
|
||
It may also be possible to use other OAuth2 providers which provide the
|
||
[authorization code grant type](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749#section-4.1),
|
||
such as [Github][github-idp].
|
||
|
||
[google-idp]: https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/openid-connect
|
||
[auth0]: https://auth0.com/
|
||
[authentik]: https://goauthentik.io/
|
||
[lemonldap]: https://lemonldap-ng.org/
|
||
[okta]: https://www.okta.com/

[hydra]: https://www.ory.sh/docs/hydra/
|
||
[github-idp]: https://developer.github.com/apps/building-oauth-apps/authorizing-oauth-apps
|
||
|
||
## Preparing Synapse
|
||
|
||
The OpenID integration in Synapse uses the
|
||
[`authlib`](https://pypi.org/project/Authlib/) library, which must be installed
|
||
as follows:
|
||
|
||
* The relevant libraries are included in the Docker images and Debian packages
|
||
provided by `matrix.org` so no further action is needed.
|
||
|
||
* If you installed Synapse into a virtualenv, run `/path/to/env/bin/pip
|
||
install matrix-synapse[oidc]` to install the necessary dependencies.
|
||
|
||
* For other installation mechanisms, see the documentation provided by the
|
||
maintainer.
|
||
|
||
To enable the OpenID integration, you should then add a section to the `oidc_providers`
|
||
setting in your configuration file.
|
||
See the [configuration manual](usage/configuration/config_documentation.md#oidc_providers) for some sample settings, as well as
|
||
the text below for example configurations for specific providers.
|
||
|
||
## OIDC Back-Channel Logout
|
||
|
||
Synapse supports receiving [OpenID Connect Back-Channel Logout](https://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-backchannel-1_0.html) notifications.
|
||
|
||
This lets the OpenID Connect Provider notify Synapse when a user logs out, so that Synapse can end that user session.
|
||
This feature can be enabled by setting the `backchannel_logout_enabled` property to `true` in the provider configuration, and setting the following URL as destination for Back-Channel Logout notifications in your OpenID Connect Provider: `[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/backchannel_logout`
|
||
|
||
## Sample configs
|
||
|
||
Here are a few configs for providers that should work with Synapse.
|
||
|
||
### Microsoft Azure Active Directory
|
||
Azure AD can act as an OpenID Connect Provider. Register a new application under
|
||
*App registrations* in the Azure AD management console. The RedirectURI for your
|
||
application should point to your matrix server:
|
||
`[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback`
|
||
|
||
Go to *Certificates & secrets* and register a new client secret. Make note of your
|
||
Directory (tenant) ID as it will be used in the Azure links.
|
||
Edit your Synapse config file and change the `oidc_config` section:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
oidc_providers:
|
||
- idp_id: microsoft
|
||
idp_name: Microsoft
|
||
issuer: "https://login.microsoftonline.com/<tenant id>/v2.0"
|
||
client_id: "<client id>"
|
||
client_secret: "<client secret>"
|
||
scopes: ["openid", "profile"]
|
||
authorization_endpoint: "https://login.microsoftonline.com/<tenant id>/oauth2/v2.0/authorize"
|
||
token_endpoint: "https://login.microsoftonline.com/<tenant id>/oauth2/v2.0/token"
|
||
userinfo_endpoint: "https://graph.microsoft.com/oidc/userinfo"
|
||
|
||
user_mapping_provider:
|
||
config:
|
||
localpart_template: "{{ user.preferred_username.split('@')[0] }}"
|
||
display_name_template: "{{ user.name }}"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Apple
|
||
|
||
Configuring "Sign in with Apple" (SiWA) requires an Apple Developer account.
|
||
|
||
You will need to create a new "Services ID" for SiWA, and create and download a
|
||
private key with "SiWA" enabled.
|
||
|
||
As well as the private key file, you will need:
|
||
* Client ID: the "identifier" you gave the "Services ID"
|
||
* Team ID: a 10-character ID associated with your developer account.
|
||
* Key ID: the 10-character identifier for the key.
|
||
|
||
[Apple's developer documentation](https://help.apple.com/developer-account/?lang=en#/dev77c875b7e)
|
||
has more information on setting up SiWA.
|
||
|
||
The synapse config will look like this:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
- idp_id: apple
|
||
idp_name: Apple
|
||
issuer: "https://appleid.apple.com"
|
||
client_id: "your-client-id" # Set to the "identifier" for your "ServicesID"
|
||
client_auth_method: "client_secret_post"
|
||
client_secret_jwt_key:
|
||
key_file: "/path/to/AuthKey_KEYIDCODE.p8" # point to your key file
|
||
jwt_header:
|
||
alg: ES256
|
||
kid: "KEYIDCODE" # Set to the 10-char Key ID
|
||
jwt_payload:
|
||
iss: TEAMIDCODE # Set to the 10-char Team ID
|
||
scopes: ["name", "email", "openid"]
|
||
authorization_endpoint: https://appleid.apple.com/auth/authorize?response_mode=form_post
|
||
user_mapping_provider:
|
||
config:
|
||
email_template: "{{ user.email }}"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Auth0
|
||
|
||
[Auth0][auth0] is a hosted SaaS IdP solution.
|
||
|
||
1. Create a regular web application for Synapse
|
||
2. Set the Allowed Callback URLs to `[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback`
|
||
3. Add a rule with any name to add the `preferred_username` claim.
|
||
(See https://auth0.com/docs/customize/rules/create-rules for more information on how to create rules.)
|
||
|
||
<details>
|
||
<summary>Code sample</summary>
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
function addPersistenceAttribute(user, context, callback) {
|
||
user.user_metadata = user.user_metadata || {};
|
||
user.user_metadata.preferred_username = user.user_metadata.preferred_username || user.user_id;
|
||
context.idToken.preferred_username = user.user_metadata.preferred_username;
|
||
|
||
auth0.users.updateUserMetadata(user.user_id, user.user_metadata)
|
||
.then(function(){
|
||
callback(null, user, context);
|
||
})
|
||
.catch(function(err){
|
||
callback(err);
|
||
});
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
</details>
|
||
|
||
Synapse config:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
oidc_providers:
|
||
- idp_id: auth0
|
||
idp_name: Auth0
|
||
issuer: "https://your-tier.eu.auth0.com/" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
client_id: "your-client-id" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
client_secret: "your-client-secret" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
scopes: ["openid", "profile"]
|
||
user_mapping_provider:
|
||
config:
|
||
localpart_template: "{{ user.preferred_username }}"
|
||
display_name_template: "{{ user.name }}"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Authentik
|
||
|
||
[Authentik][authentik] is an open-source IdP solution.
|
||
|
||
1. Create a provider in Authentik, with type OAuth2/OpenID.
|
||
2. The parameters are:
|
||
- Client Type: Confidential
|
||
- JWT Algorithm: RS256
|
||
- Scopes: OpenID, Email and Profile
|
||
- RSA Key: Select any available key
|
||
- Redirect URIs: `[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback`
|
||
3. Create an application for synapse in Authentik and link it to the provider.
|
||
4. Note the slug of your application, Client ID and Client Secret.
|
||
|
||
Note: RSA keys must be used for signing for Authentik, ECC keys do not work.
|
||
|
||
Synapse config:
|
||
```yaml
|
||
oidc_providers:
|
||
- idp_id: authentik
|
||
idp_name: authentik
|
||
discover: true
|
||
issuer: "https://your.authentik.example.org/application/o/your-app-slug/" # TO BE FILLED: domain and slug
|
||
client_id: "your client id" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
client_secret: "your client secret" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
scopes:
|
||
- "openid"
|
||
- "profile"
|
||
- "email"
|
||
user_mapping_provider:
|
||
config:
|
||
localpart_template: "{{ user.preferred_username }}"
|
||
display_name_template: "{{ user.preferred_username|capitalize }}" # TO BE FILLED: If your users have names in Authentik and you want those in Synapse, this should be replaced with user.name|capitalize.
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Dex
|
||
|
||
[Dex][dex-idp] is a simple, open-source OpenID Connect Provider.
|
||
Although it is designed to help building a full-blown provider with an
|
||
external database, it can be configured with static passwords in a config file.
|
||
|
||
Follow the [Getting Started guide](https://dexidp.io/docs/getting-started/)
|
||
to install Dex.
|
||
|
||
Edit `examples/config-dev.yaml` config file from the Dex repo to add a client:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
staticClients:
|
||
- id: synapse
|
||
secret: secret
|
||
redirectURIs:
|
||
- '[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback'
|
||
name: 'Synapse'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Run with `dex serve examples/config-dev.yaml`.
|
||
|
||
Synapse config:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
oidc_providers:
|
||
- idp_id: dex
|
||
idp_name: "My Dex server"
|
||
skip_verification: true # This is needed as Dex is served on an insecure endpoint
|
||
issuer: "http://127.0.0.1:5556/dex"
|
||
client_id: "synapse"
|
||
client_secret: "secret"
|
||
scopes: ["openid", "profile"]
|
||
user_mapping_provider:
|
||
config:
|
||
localpart_template: "{{ user.name }}"
|
||
display_name_template: "{{ user.name|capitalize }}"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Django OAuth Toolkit
|
||
|
||
[django-oauth-toolkit](https://github.com/jazzband/django-oauth-toolkit) is a
|
||
Django application providing out of the box all the endpoints, data and logic
|
||
needed to add OAuth2 capabilities to your Django projects. It supports
|
||
[OpenID Connect too](https://django-oauth-toolkit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/oidc.html).
|
||
|
||
Configuration on Django's side:
|
||
|
||
1. Add an application: `https://example.com/admin/oauth2_provider/application/add/` and choose parameters like this:
|
||
* `Redirect uris`: `https://synapse.example.com/_synapse/client/oidc/callback`
|
||
* `Client type`: `Confidential`
|
||
* `Authorization grant type`: `Authorization code`
|
||
* `Algorithm`: `HMAC with SHA-2 256`
|
||
2. You can [customize the claims](https://django-oauth-toolkit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/oidc.html#customizing-the-oidc-responses) Django gives to synapse (optional):
|
||
<details>
|
||
<summary>Code sample</summary>
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
class CustomOAuth2Validator(OAuth2Validator):
|
||
|
||
def get_additional_claims(self, request):
|
||
return {
|
||
"sub": request.user.email,
|
||
"email": request.user.email,
|
||
"first_name": request.user.first_name,
|
||
"last_name": request.user.last_name,
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
</details>
|
||
Your synapse config is then:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
oidc_providers:
|
||
- idp_id: django_example
|
||
idp_name: "Django Example"
|
||
issuer: "https://example.com/o/"
|
||
client_id: "your-client-id" # CHANGE ME
|
||
client_secret: "your-client-secret" # CHANGE ME
|
||
scopes: ["openid"]
|
||
user_profile_method: "userinfo_endpoint" # needed because oauth-toolkit does not include user information in the authorization response
|
||
user_mapping_provider:
|
||
config:
|
||
localpart_template: "{{ user.email.split('@')[0] }}"
|
||
display_name_template: "{{ user.first_name }} {{ user.last_name }}"
|
||
email_template: "{{ user.email }}"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Facebook
|
||
|
||
0. You will need a Facebook developer account. You can register for one
|
||
[here](https://developers.facebook.com/async/registration/).
|
||
1. On the [apps](https://developers.facebook.com/apps/) page of the developer
|
||
console, "Create App", and choose "Build Connected Experiences".
|
||
2. Once the app is created, add "Facebook Login" and choose "Web". You don't
|
||
need to go through the whole form here.
|
||
3. In the left-hand menu, open "Products"/"Facebook Login"/"Settings".
|
||
* Add `[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback` as an OAuth Redirect
|
||
URL.
|
||
4. In the left-hand menu, open "Settings/Basic". Here you can copy the "App ID"
|
||
and "App Secret" for use below.
|
||
|
||
Synapse config:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
- idp_id: facebook
|
||
idp_name: Facebook
|
||
idp_brand: "facebook" # optional: styling hint for clients
|
||
discover: false
|
||
issuer: "https://www.facebook.com"
|
||
client_id: "your-client-id" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
client_secret: "your-client-secret" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
scopes: ["openid", "email"]
|
||
authorization_endpoint: "https://facebook.com/dialog/oauth"
|
||
token_endpoint: "https://graph.facebook.com/v9.0/oauth/access_token"
|
||
jwks_uri: "https://www.facebook.com/.well-known/oauth/openid/jwks/"
|
||
user_mapping_provider:
|
||
config:
|
||
display_name_template: "{{ user.name }}"
|
||
email_template: "{{ user.email }}"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Relevant documents:
|
||
* [Manually Build a Login Flow](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/manually-build-a-login-flow)
|
||
* [Using Facebook's Graph API](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/using-graph-api/)
|
||
* [Reference to the User endpoint](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/user)
|
||
|
||
Facebook do have an [OIDC discovery endpoint](https://www.facebook.com/.well-known/openid-configuration),
|
||
but it has a `response_types_supported` which excludes "code" (which we rely on, and
|
||
is even mentioned in their [documentation](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/manually-build-a-login-flow#login)),
|
||
so we have to disable discovery and configure the URIs manually.
|
||
|
||
### GitHub
|
||
|
||
[GitHub][github-idp] is a bit special as it is not an OpenID Connect compliant provider, but
|
||
just a regular OAuth2 provider.
|
||
|
||
The [`/user` API endpoint](https://developer.github.com/v3/users/#get-the-authenticated-user)
|
||
can be used to retrieve information on the authenticated user. As the Synapse
|
||
login mechanism needs an attribute to uniquely identify users, and that endpoint
|
||
does not return a `sub` property, an alternative `subject_claim` has to be set.
|
||
|
||
1. Create a new OAuth application: [https://github.com/settings/applications/new](https://github.com/settings/applications/new).
|
||
2. Set the callback URL to `[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback`.
|
||
|
||
Synapse config:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
oidc_providers:
|
||
- idp_id: github
|
||
idp_name: Github
|
||
idp_brand: "github" # optional: styling hint for clients
|
||
discover: false
|
||
issuer: "https://github.com/"
|
||
client_id: "your-client-id" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
client_secret: "your-client-secret" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
authorization_endpoint: "https://github.com/login/oauth/authorize"
|
||
token_endpoint: "https://github.com/login/oauth/access_token"
|
||
userinfo_endpoint: "https://api.github.com/user"
|
||
scopes: ["read:user"]
|
||
user_mapping_provider:
|
||
config:
|
||
subject_claim: "id"
|
||
localpart_template: "{{ user.login }}"
|
||
display_name_template: "{{ user.name }}"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### GitLab
|
||
|
||
1. Create a [new application](https://gitlab.com/profile/applications).
|
||
2. Add the `read_user` and `openid` scopes.
|
||
3. Add this Callback URL: `[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback`
|
||
|
||
Synapse config:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
oidc_providers:
|
||
- idp_id: gitlab
|
||
idp_name: Gitlab
|
||
idp_brand: "gitlab" # optional: styling hint for clients
|
||
issuer: "https://gitlab.com/"
|
||
client_id: "your-client-id" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
client_secret: "your-client-secret" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
client_auth_method: "client_secret_post"
|
||
scopes: ["openid", "read_user"]
|
||
user_profile_method: "userinfo_endpoint"
|
||
user_mapping_provider:
|
||
config:
|
||
localpart_template: '{{ user.nickname }}'
|
||
display_name_template: '{{ user.name }}'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Gitea
|
||
|
||
Gitea is, like Github, not an OpenID provider, but just an OAuth2 provider.
|
||
|
||
The [`/user` API endpoint](https://try.gitea.io/api/swagger#/user/userGetCurrent)
|
||
can be used to retrieve information on the authenticated user. As the Synapse
|
||
login mechanism needs an attribute to uniquely identify users, and that endpoint
|
||
does not return a `sub` property, an alternative `subject_claim` has to be set.
|
||
|
||
1. Create a new application.
|
||
2. Add this Callback URL: `[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback`
|
||
|
||
Synapse config:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
oidc_providers:
|
||
- idp_id: gitea
|
||
idp_name: Gitea
|
||
discover: false
|
||
issuer: "https://your-gitea.com/"
|
||
client_id: "your-client-id" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
client_secret: "your-client-secret" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
client_auth_method: client_secret_post
|
||
scopes: [] # Gitea doesn't support Scopes
|
||
authorization_endpoint: "https://your-gitea.com/login/oauth/authorize"
|
||
token_endpoint: "https://your-gitea.com/login/oauth/access_token"
|
||
userinfo_endpoint: "https://your-gitea.com/api/v1/user"
|
||
user_mapping_provider:
|
||
config:
|
||
subject_claim: "id"
|
||
localpart_template: "{{ user.login }}"
|
||
display_name_template: "{{ user.full_name }}"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Google
|
||
|
||
[Google][google-idp] is an OpenID certified authentication and authorisation provider.
|
||
|
||
1. Set up a project in the Google API Console (see
|
||
[documentation](https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/openid-connect#appsetup)).
|
||
3. Add an "OAuth Client ID" for a Web Application under "Credentials".
|
||
4. Copy the Client ID and Client Secret, and add the following to your synapse config:
|
||
```yaml
|
||
oidc_providers:
|
||
- idp_id: google
|
||
idp_name: Google
|
||
idp_brand: "google" # optional: styling hint for clients
|
||
issuer: "https://accounts.google.com/"
|
||
client_id: "your-client-id" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
client_secret: "your-client-secret" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
scopes: ["openid", "profile", "email"] # email is optional, read below
|
||
user_mapping_provider:
|
||
config:
|
||
localpart_template: "{{ user.given_name|lower }}"
|
||
display_name_template: "{{ user.name }}"
|
||
email_template: "{{ user.email }}" # needs "email" in scopes above
|
||
```
|
||
4. Back in the Google console, add this Authorized redirect URI: `[synapse
|
||
public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback`.
|
||
|
||
### Keycloak
|
||
|
||
[Keycloak][keycloak-idp] is an opensource IdP maintained by Red Hat.
|
||
|
||
Keycloak supports OIDC Back-Channel Logout, which sends logout notification to Synapse, so that Synapse users get logged out when they log out from Keycloak.

### LemonLDAP
|
||
|
||
[LemonLDAP::NG][lemonldap] is an open-source IdP solution.
|
||
|
||
1. Create an OpenID Connect Relying Parties in LemonLDAP::NG
|
||
2. The parameters are:
|
||
- Client ID under the basic menu of the new Relying Parties (`Options > Basic >
|
||
Client ID`)
|
||
- Client secret (`Options > Basic > Client secret`)
|
||
- JWT Algorithm: RS256 within the security menu of the new Relying Parties
|
||
(`Options > Security > ID Token signature algorithm` and `Options > Security >
|
||
Access Token signature algorithm`)
|
||
- Scopes: OpenID, Email and Profile
|
||
- Allowed redirection addresses for login (`Options > Basic > Allowed
|
||
redirection addresses for login` ) :
|
||
`[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback`
|
||
|
||
Synapse config:
|
||
```yaml
|
||
oidc_providers:
|
||
- idp_id: lemonldap
|
||
idp_name: lemonldap
|
||
discover: true
|
||
issuer: "https://auth.example.org/" # TO BE FILLED: replace with your domain
|
||
client_id: "your client id" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
client_secret: "your client secret" # TO BE FILLED
|
||
scopes:
|
||
- "openid"
|
||
- "profile"
|
||
- "email"
|
||
user_mapping_provider:
|
||
config:
|
||
localpart_template: "{{ user.preferred_username }}}"
|
||
# TO BE FILLED: If your users have names in LemonLDAP::NG and you want those in Synapse, this should be replaced with user.name|capitalize or any valid filter.
|
||
display_name_template: "{{ user.preferred_username|capitalize }}"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Mastodon
|
||
|
||
[Mastodon](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/) instances provide an [OAuth API](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/spec/oauth/), allowing those instances to be used as a single sign-on provider for Synapse.
|
||
|
||
The first step is to register Synapse as an application with your Mastodon instance, using the [Create an application API](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/apps/#create) (see also [here](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/client/token/)). There are several ways to do this, but in the example below we are using CURL.
|
||
|
||
This example assumes that:
|
||
* the Mastodon instance website URL is `https://your.mastodon.instance.url`, and
|
||
* Synapse will be registered as an app named `my_synapse_app`.
|
||
|
||
Send the following request, substituting the value of `synapse_public_baseurl` from your Synapse installation.
|
||
```sh
|
||
curl -d "client_name=my_synapse_app&redirect_uris=https://[synapse_public_baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback" -X POST https://your.mastodon.instance.url/api/v1/apps
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You should receive a response similar to the following. Make sure to save it.
|
||
```json
|
||
{"client_id":"someclientid_123","client_secret":"someclientsecret_123","id":"12345","name":"my_synapse_app","redirect_uri":"https://[synapse_public_baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback","website":null,"vapid_key":"somerandomvapidkey_123"}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
As the Synapse login mechanism needs an attribute to uniquely identify users, and Mastodon's endpoint does not return a `sub` property, an alternative `subject_template` has to be set. Your Synapse configuration should include the following:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
oidc_providers:
|
||
- idp_id: my_mastodon
|
||
idp_name: "Mastodon Instance Example"
|
||
discover: false
|
||
issuer: "https://your.mastodon.instance.url/@admin"
|
||
client_id: "someclientid_123"
|
||
client_secret: "someclientsecret_123"
|
||
authorization_endpoint: "https://your.mastodon.instance.url/oauth/authorize"
|
||
token_endpoint: "https://your.mastodon.instance.url/oauth/token"
|
||
userinfo_endpoint: "https://your.mastodon.instance.url/api/v1/accounts/verify_credentials"
|
||
scopes: ["read"]
|
||
user_mapping_provider:
|
||
config:
|
||
subject_template: "{{ user.id }}"
|
||
localpart_template: "{{ user.username }}"
|
||
display_name_template: "{{ user.display_name }}"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Note that the fields `client_id` and `client_secret` are taken from the CURL response above.
|
||

||
### Shibboleth with OIDC Plugin
|
||
|
||
[Shibboleth](https://www.shibboleth.net/) is an open Standard IdP solution widely used by Universities.
|
||

2. Create a new config on the IdP Side, ensure that the `client_id` and `client_secret`
|
||
are randomly generated data.
|
||
```json
|
||
{
|
||
"client_id": "SOME-CLIENT-ID",
|
||
"client_secret": "SOME-SUPER-SECRET-SECRET",
|
