The plugin supports OpenID Connect (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenID), an authentication protocol built on the OAuth 2.0 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OAuth) authorization framework. It facilitates user identity verification and enables single sign-on (SSO) capabilities, streamlining the authentication process for users.

Constraints: It only works through HTTP or HTTPS protocol. Authorization Code Flow is supported (Implicit Flow or Hybrid Flow are not supported). It requires Enterprise License.

1. IDP general configuration
#

The plugin requires the following Identity Provider (IdP) information and configuration:
• Client ID
• Client Secret
• Redirect URL: The redirect URL is the endpoint in your Identity Provider (IdP) application where the IdP directs the user after successful authentication. This URL receives the authorization code or access token as part of the authentication process. The redirect URL must ends with /SSO_OIDC/. Like:

https://yourdomain.com/SSO_OIDC/

2. Plugin Configuration
#

1.1 Identity Provider related settings
#

1. OpenID Configuration URL:

Dynamic endpoint:

This HTTP URL is part of the OpenID Connect (OIDC) Discovery mechanism. It follows a standard called RFC 5785 (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5785), which defines the use of .well-known URIs for discovering metadata about services. It queries this HTTP endpoint to configure itself dynamically, avoiding hard-coded values. This JSON document includes important endpoints and details like:
• Authorization endpoint
• Token endpoint
• User info endpoint
• Supported scopes and claims
• Public keys for verifying tokens

List of .well-known URLs for various identity providers and services that support OpenID Connect (OIDC):

Google:              https://accounts.google.com/.well-known/openid-configuration
Microsoft Azure AD:  https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant_id}/v2.0/.well-known/openid-configuration
Microsoft Azure B2C: https://{tenant_name}.b2clogin.com/{tenant_name}.onmicrosoft.com/{policy}/v2.0/.well-known/openid-configuration
Amazon (Cognito):    https://cognito-idp.{region}.amazonaws.com/{userPoolId}/.well-known/openid-configuration
Okta:                https://{yourOktaDomain}/.well-known/openid-configuration
Auth0:               https://{yourDomain}.auth0.com/.well-known/openid-configuration
Dropbox:             https://www.dropbox.com/.well-known/openid-configuration

Local endpoint:

You can reference a local JSON file if the identity provider (IdP) does not support OpenID Connect but does support OAuth 2.0 (e.g., Box cloud storage). Instead of specifying an HTTP URL, provide the path to a local file, such as:

./box_open_id_config.json

The JSON file should include the authorization endpoint. Example for Box cloud storage:

{
	"authorization_endpoint":"https://account.box.com/api/oauth2/authorize",
	"token_endpoint":"https://api.box.com/oauth2/token"
}
