Description of problem: add support for SAML auth to the API (this is SAML v2.0 Enhanced Client or Proxy Profile protocol, NOT JWT and is non-trivial).
Please assess the impact of this issue and update the severity accordingly. Please refer to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/page.cgi?id=fields.html#bug_severity for a reminder on each severity's definition. If it's something like a tracker bug where it doesn't matter, please set the severity to Low.
I'll start to research what this involves.
Moving back to Status: NEW, I've researched and talked with Alberto. Just to help other understand what's involved. Fundamentally SAML is web browser dependent. Without the browser, the Enhanced Client or Proxy profile, which allows clients to directly contact a SAML directory without requiring a browser, would be needed. There currently is no existing Ruby gem that provides ECP so we would have to implement the protocol in order to provide this functionality. JoeV
I am actively working to add the requested functionality.
