The OpenID Connect docs mention a form that doesn't exist on EMS admin panel #52

The OpenID Connect docs mention a form that doesn't exist on EMS admin panel.

Your homeserver can be configured to authenticate its users with an OpenID Connect provider. (...)

In the Element Matrix Services configuration form, use the preset Google for a simplified form or use Custom (...)

I'm guessing that form is only available for Enterprise Cloud servers, since SSO is only on that tier. I think this could be mentioned in the OpenID Connect docs.

Yes, all authentication providers are only available for the Element Enterprise Cloud plan.

Thanks for confirming this @jaller94.

I think it would be useful to have that mentioned in the OpenID Connect docs, otherwise it's very confusing. For a user who isn't aware that SSO is only available for Enterprise, it either looks like a bug in the EMS admin panel (SSO form is missing) or a bug in the docs (it mentions a non-existing form).
