Hi,
I know Piwik supports LDAP auth but can it also support SAML authentication to login to the application ? trying to setup access to users using SAML.
Thanks,
Dilish
It looks like this project has stalled out. Bummer. I’m not sure if this would help, but I have an idea which might be simpler.
Bugzilla does not support SAML directly. But it does have the ability to take the username from an environment variable set on the server. The Apache HTTP server can do SAML authentication directly with mod_auth_mellon.
So my idea is to create a plug-in which doesn’t implement SAML but rather pulls the username from an environment variable like MELLON_NAME_ID.
This solution isn’t as feature rich. It will never support things like de-provisioning and single sign-out. But the narrow scope means it could be implemented in relatively short order. And on the upside, I’ve found that doing SAML in the webserver as opposed to the application makes my configs simpler and more consistent.
You may be able to easily modify this existing HTTP AUTH plugin for this purpose: http://plugins.piwik.org/LoginHttpAuth
SAML plugin is now available on the Marketplace! Please learn more here: http://plugins.piwik.org/LoginSaml
and in our SAML User Guides: Login with SAML Authentication - Analytics Platform - Piwik
