Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
expeditedshipper Posted July 22, 2019 Posted July 22, 2019 I saw some support documentation here: Is there a way to set this up without development? Seems a bit complicated...
Stuart Silvester Posted July 23, 2019 Posted July 23, 2019 SAML is a bit more complex than things like OAuth, it is not something that is natively supported at this time. Based on experience, most authentication providers that support SAML also have OAuth 2 support which is natively supported in Invision Community (It's also much easier to set up). We can provide a bespoke SAML-based solution if required, please see here for more information: https://invisioncommunity.com/services/sso/ Personally, I would look at using OAuth if it's a solution that's available to you.
expeditedshipper Posted July 25, 2019 Author Posted July 25, 2019 Does it support OpenID Connect? What does the bespoke SAML-based solution cost?

We don't have native support for this time, but that's also something we could implement easy enough (since OpenID Connect uses OAuth). There is some basic pricing information on here: https://invisioncommunity.com/services/sso/ but I would recommend emailing our sales team for a quote (click the contact us button on the right)
bfarber Posted July 26, 2019 Posted July 26, 2019 I'll just note, we do also have an OpenID Connect solution, in addition to SAML, so if that is a preference you can also inquire with our sales department about OpenID Connect instead.
expeditedshipper Posted July 26, 2019 Author Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) If we were to do the SAML solution...is it a pain to set up or is there a good guide for it? $850 is a bit pricey for this. Edited July 26, 2019 by expeditedshipper
bfarber Posted July 26, 2019 Posted July 26, 2019 There is no off-the-shelf solution for SAML. In terms of setting it up, I assume you mean the integration on the community side and not the front end SAML instance itself. If that assumption is correct, without using a ready-made solution yes, it is quite a "pain" to add integration for SAML into the software unless you're very familiar with how SAML works and/or enjoy reading about the nitty gritty details of protocols. There is no guide for setting up SAML; it's not something you are able to do without custom code. Ryan M 1

At the moment we can integrate with Google and Microsoft but it is Microsoft personal accouns, not Microsoft 365. Simple SAML can work with Azure AD, Okta, Auth0, JumpCloud, and many many others. Thank you for your time. On 7/26/2019 at 8:33 AM, expeditedshipper said: $850 is a bit pricey for this. Yes I absolutely agree. And with paying a fairly high rate to renew support/maintenance of my licenses I believe this should be an included feature.
Marc Posted July 19, 2022 Posted July 19, 2022 If you wish to see additions to the platform, you would really need to post within our suggestions area. From a support standpoint we can only offer what is available at the present time.
