Hey,
Just to be sure the redirection from Firefox to the application is successful ? On which OS are you running the desktop app ? and if on linux how the app is packaged/installed ?
Hey,
Yes, we tested it on two windows machines. We have Chrome or Edge as standard browsers. In Chrome the SSO url gets marked as unsafe, in all the other Browsers we tested that wasn't a problem. But if we continue for both Chrome and Edge when being promoted to open Bitwarden nothing happens.
If we set Firefox as standard Browser everything works fine, also with opening the Bitwarden Desktop app. After that we naturally we get asked for the master password and the vault unlocks. But for both machines we tested so far the vault won't sync and won't dhow any content in the vault. It will only show the wheel spinning as if it's still synchronizing
Hey, Just tested on Windows too, and I'm able to reproduce.
Will have a look but might take some time since first I'll try to make the Firefox redirection work on my linux install (rebooting to Windows each time to test is not fun ^^).
Awesome and no worries! Really appreciate the work, it's awesome! :)
Ok was able to configure the redirection on linux with Firefox. And it just works the vault display all my password :D.
So will have to spin a VM or something else to debug on Windows.
sounds promising already!
Hey @Timshel, just wanted to ask if there is any development on this issue or if there is something I can do to support with solving it! :)
Hey, Sorry haven't made much progress. I have a vm running but I have a different issue where I'm unable to unlock the vault :(.
No worries at all, just wanted to check in :) if there's anything I can do to help let me know

Did you had to do anything to make it work with Edge? I think I have the same issue as in #35 because SSO is working for me with all other clients but not with the desktop client. I'm using a windows machine and I have to use Edge so I'm wondering if you know how to make SSO work for the desktop client? Thank you for your help :)
Hey @jobritz
I think so far this is still an open issue @Timshel is working on it. The only workaround we have so far is to allow the use of the master password for the login not forcing the SSO, disabling the master password. @Timshel is working on the issue so I think we just have to be patient. :)
There are some known issues though where Chrome and Edge (since it is based on Chromium) won't open the Bitwarden application from the browser passing all the information. As far as I know this is an issue with Bitwarden though and not with this repo so out of scope of @Timshel.
Yes, I saw the issue on the Bitwarden repo, but if you scroll down the last comment says that after 3 years there is still no fix for this issue :(.
Hey
Just to manage expectation I don't expect to have any solution in the short term. I can't reproduce the issue when using a VM (remotely) since I can't even login .... (so another issue ?).
Might try this week to run a VM locally to see if I have the same issues, then the next step would be to setup windows on a laptop but I would prefer to avoid it.
And outside of the logistic issues the fact that the desktop app works on Linux is not really a good sign since I believe it's supposed to be the same code.
Subject of the issue
Desktop application is not syncing when authenticating via SSO
