             Summary: support for external Oauth provider 
                 Key: FINERACT-1261
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-1261
             Project: Apache Fineract
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Security
    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
            Reporter: Vincent FUCHS


Hi,

 

I was looking at the couple of tickets open around OAuth2 support, mostly 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-1142 (and its related issues) 
and https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-1012 , and from what I 
understand, we currently have no way to configure an external OAuth provider. 
Is that correct ? 

 

A typical Oauth flow is to authenticate against a standard provider, using the 
provider login page and get an OAuth token and be redirected, then use that 
token in all the requests. The security layer then checks the token validity 
for all incoming requests.

 

Spring has fairly standard support for this : 
[https://spring.io/guides/tutorials/spring-boot-oauth2/]

 

Is it something that works but is not documented ? or is it sure that it 
doesn't currently work ?

(I would assume that once https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-1012 
is completed, it will just be a matter of providing the right Spring properties 
values)

 

Thanks
