Via Built-in SSO

This is a free method to connect Casdoor, but your website must use HTTPS.

Casdoor can use the OIDC protocol as an IDP to connect various applications. Here is a Jira tutorial.

The following are some of the names in the configuration:

  • CASDOOR_HOSTNAME: Domain name or IP where the Casdoor server is deployed.
  • Jira_HOSTNAME: Domain name or IP where Jira is deployed.

Step 1: Deploy Casdoor and Jira​

Firstly, deploy Casdoor and Jira.

After a successful deployment, ensure the following:

  1. Casdoor can be logged in and used normally.
  2. You can set CASDOOR_HOSTNAME to http://localhost:8000 when deploying Casdoor in prod mode. See production mode.

Step 2: Configure Casdoor application​

  1. Create or use an existing Casdoor application.
  2. Find Authentication methods: Jira Callback
  3. Add a Configuration and choose OpenID Connection single sign-on in the Authentication method Jira Method
  4. Find the redirect URL: redirect
  5. Add a redirect URL: Jira Application

Not surprisingly, you can obtain two values on the application settings page: Client ID and Client secret, like the picture above. We will use them in the next step.

Open your favorite browser and visit: http://CASDOOR_HOSTNAME/.well-known/openid-configuration. You will see the OIDC configuration of Casdoor.

Step 3: Configure Jira​

  1. We need to continue configuring our Configuration in Jira Config Config2

  2. You can configure more complex authorization later. For now, check if OpenID actually works. Jira Login
