SAML-Based Single Sign-On #954

Closed mamigot closed 1 year ago

mamigot commented 7 years ago

Hey edX,

I wanted to re-open the issue that was raised by #632 , specifically as it pertains to SAML auth backends on the platform which are completely unsupported by the apps now.

What's the status of the development of this feature? If work has already been started, would there be any opportunities to contribute / help?

Thanks! Miguel

It's not top priority for our (Appsembler) universities right now (on mobile; we have it on web), but I'm interested in seeing this happen, it's on our requested features. If you start a PR on iOS or Android I'm down to help review it, just ping me. I think @pomegranited (OpenCraft) universities have it as a higher priority right now, so maybe there's some code on her end. A developer at Stanford was working on a solution for this a couple years ago I believe and may have something to share, if you mention this in the Open edX Slack channel #mobile-apps and cc me there (@cookie.dough) I can cc him there, I don't know his github handle though.

The core codebase does NOT support SAML right now, but there may be a solution that you could pull from that is on an open-source fork that hasn't made it upstream yet.

Thanks for the ping here @jaimeohm ! Campus.IL have a project in the works to add support for their SAML-based SSO, so will let the team members know about this issue.
