A significant security and GDPR compliance requirement is being able to automatically disable accounts when staff leave the firm or a team. Whilst we can build applications in OutSystems with various authentication options the only external authentication method available for the developer environment is adfs. Given the wide use of platforms such as OKTA for synchronising and managing cloud accounts it would be great if the OutSystems platform itself supported SAML2.0 and/or OIDC.
For the larger companies there should be an option to login using SAML integration.
This will allow us to use 2FA login functionality and single-sign-on to Outsystems platform applications like ServiceCenter, LifeTime and Users.
This option can be placed behind a license-structure and a separate tab in the Administation page of Outsystems.
We have this built for our solution. It might be able to be applied to you as well. Our IT department uses SSO via SAMLv2 and the OutSystems team was able to get authentication to work with it.
Hi Nicholas,
I've also got a working solution for the apps we build, but I would like to have SSO via SAML on ServiceCenter and LifeTime. Did you manage to get SAML working on these applications too with the help of Outsystems? And are you also working in the Outsystems Cloud?
Kind regards, Remco
I highly agree, we would also like to see SAML integration as a Platform option. We have been looking into ways to implement 2FA authentication and would prefer not to build it ourselves.
I'm surprised that this topic is still not closed after two years. I think security measures are becoming even more important these days. Having a two factor authentication at the developers/admin level is a must have in my opinion.
Totally agree! There is already a Lifetime Plugin to support this but the connection between Service Studio and Service Center still lacks some work.
Here it is the component: https://www.outsystems.com/forge/component-overview/4312/saml-platform-authentication-plugin

Hi, This feature is a must from compliance perspective.

This has been implemented should the idea show as implemented, rather than "on the radar"?
