OIDC SSO
Content Type: Module
Categories: Authentication
Overview
Use this module to implement single sign-on to your Mendix app using an OpenID Connect (OIDC) compliant identity provider (IDP). It supports ‘normal’ Mendix apps (i.e. responsive browser-based applications) and doesn’t yet support native or hybrid mobile apps. Supports AWS Cognito, Google, Salesforce, Apple, Okta, Ping, and Microsoft, this module manages the end-to-end SSO workflow when working with an OIDC IDP. The IDP will relieve your app from logging in your end-users and optionally will also decide which roles the user gets assigned in your app, using mechanism from the OAuth protocol.
Simply provide configuration details, decide how you'd like to provision users, and log in!
You can use this module if your app is on Mendix 9 or later. If your app is using a previous Mendix version, you would have to upgrade your app or use the similar “OpenIDConnect Single Sign-on (OIDC, OAuth2, SSO)” module, which has community support. Both modules have similar but not the same features. Please look at release notes and documentation to make the best choice for your app.
