OpenId Connect support

Q&A
1

Hello,

Is there a way to use OpenId connect as an authentication backend?
In the documentation there are some comments (https://documentation.bonitasoft.com/bonita/7.8/single-sign-on-with-saml):

`#auth.AuthenticationManager = org.bonitasoft.console.common.server.auth.impl.standard.StandardAuthenticationManagerImplExt
#auth.AuthenticationManager = org.bonitasoft.console.common.server.auth.impl.oauth.OAuthAuthenticationManagerImplExt

OAuth.serviceProvider = LinkedIn

OAuth.consumerKey = ove2vcdjptar

OAuth.consumerSecret = vdaBrCmHvkgJoYz1

OAuth.callbackURL = http://ip_address:port/loginservice`

But I can’t see any page explaining how to use Oauth (openid?).

Thanks for help,
Yann

As you figured out Bonita (Enterprise Edition) can do Single Sign On (SSO) using SAML. The SAML identity provider can do identity brokering and connect with an external identity provider for example using OpenID (see for example Keycloack acting as an identity provider can do that).

Are you targeting any specific service that require OpenID to be used?

Hi,

In the new version 2021.2 that will be released next September '21 we will support OpenId Connect as an authentication to Portal and APIs

Stay tuned, I will update the post with the link to the documentation once it is released.
