# 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/

 | 
						||
 | 
						||
## 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.
 | 
						||
This can be optionally enabled by setting `backchannel_logout_enabled` to `true` in the Synapse configuration, and by setting the "Backchannel Logout URL" in Keycloak.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
Follow the [Getting Started Guide](https://www.keycloak.org/guides) to install Keycloak and set up a realm.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
1. Click `Clients` in the sidebar and click `Create`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
2. Fill in the fields as below:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
| Field | Value |
 | 
						||

						||
| Client ID | `synapse` |
 | 
						||
| Enabled | `On` |
 | 
						||
| Client Protocol | `openid-connect` |
 | 
						||
| Access Type | `confidential` |
 | 
						||
| Valid Redirect URIs | `[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback` |
 | 
						||
| Backchannel Logout URL (optional) | `[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/backchannel_logout` |
 | 
						||
| Backchannel Logout Session Required (optional) | `On` |
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
5. Click `Save`
 | 
						||
6. On the Credentials tab, update the fields:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
| Field | Value |
 | 
						||
|-------|-------|
 | 
						||
| Client Authenticator | `Client ID and Secret` |
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
7. Click `Regenerate Secret`
 | 
						||
8. Copy Secret
 | 
						||
 | 
						||

 | 
						||
oidc_providers:
 | 
						||
  - idp_id: keycloak
 | 
						||
    idp_name: "My KeyCloak server"
 | 
						||
    issuer: "https://127.0.0.1:8443/realms/{realm_name}"
 | 
						||
    client_id: "synapse"
 | 
						||
    client_secret: "copy secret generated from above"
 | 
						||
    scopes: ["openid", "profile"]
 | 
						||
    user_mapping_provider:
 | 
						||
      config:
 | 
						||
        localpart_template: "{{ user.preferred_username }}"
 | 
						||
        display_name_template: "{{ user.name }}"
 | 
						||
    backchannel_logout_enabled: true # Optional
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
### 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.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
1. Shibboleth needs the [OIDC Plugin](https://shibboleth.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IDPPLUGINS/pages/1376878976/OIDC+OP) installed and working correctly.
 | 
						||
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",
 | 
						||
    "response_types": ["code"],
 | 
						||
    "grant_types": ["authorization_code"],
 | 
						||
    "scope": "openid profile email",
 | 
						||
    "redirect_uris": ["https://[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback"]
 | 
						||
}
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
Synapse config:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```yaml
 | 
						||
oidc_providers:
 | 
						||
  # Shibboleth IDP
 | 
						||
  #
 | 
						||
  - idp_id: shibboleth
 | 
						||
    idp_name: "Shibboleth Login"
 | 
						||
    discover: true
 | 
						||
    issuer: "https://YOUR-IDP-URL.TLD"
 | 
						||
    client_id: "YOUR_CLIENT_ID"
 | 
						||
    client_secret: "YOUR-CLIENT-SECRECT-FROM-YOUR-IDP"
 | 
						||
    scopes: ["openid", "profile", "email"]
 | 
						||
    allow_existing_users: true
 | 
						||
    user_profile_method: "userinfo_endpoint"
 | 
						||
    user_mapping_provider:
 | 
						||
      config:
 | 
						||
        subject_claim: "sub"
 | 
						||
        localpart_template: "{{ user.sub.split('@')[0] }}"
 | 
						||
        display_name_template: "{{ user.name }}"
 | 
						||
        email_template: "{{ user.email }}"
