I love Lego (don't we all), probably a little more than my kids. It invokes a builder's instinct. I feel the same way with code as well. When I started my career in the early 2000s building software was complex. You had to visit datacenters and set up your servers to even get started, it was the age of the ASPs; the predecessor of SaaS.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Then came the Cloud; infrastructure at the click of a button. Nothing short of magic! And then over the last decade or so the Cloud enabled a lot of the re-usable services to be packaged up as APIs; enter the API Economy. If you need audio or video in your app, dial the Twilio API. If you need payments, cash in on the Stripe API. If you need authentication, sign in to the Auth0 API. The list is endless (also I ran out of puns).
|
||||
|
||||
Coding today is like assembling lego blocks thanks to these APIs and developers love it. There is no need to re-invent these blocks in every startup, it’s much better to outsource the non-core stuff.
|
||||
|
||||
I have spent a significant part of my career building products that were sold to the Enterprise. I have helped build out numerous Compliance and Security features, all essential to make the sale but still a big distraction from the core product. I have personally experienced the pain of balancing these Enterprise features with other core features. My co-founder Sama has spent a significant part of his career helping startups accelerate and connecting them to Enterprises. He has seen the pain of startups not being ready to sell to the Enterprise despite having fantastic products.
|
||||
|
||||
We both looked at all this and questioned ourselves: What if Enterprise Readiness had an API? What would that look like? How would it work? Could we create a product that will help developers at startups address the hard problems of enterprise readiness, data security, and compliance?
|
||||
|
||||
And we went ahead and started BoxyHQ to build this vision. BoxyHQ is a commercial open source software that helps you add enterprise features to your app in just a few lines of code. We want to make enterprise features simple, that's it. That's our focus for the next few years. We want to solve the hard things for you and give you back valuable time to focus on your core products.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are selling to the Enterprise, come and say hello. We'd love to give you early access and help you with other aspects of Enterprise sales as well.

I recently had to revamp my home office setup and decided to make a trip to my closest IKEA. The wide range of choices of desks in Micke, Malm, Brusali, Alex, and Bekant was only the beginning of the journey. I knew I had to head back home with the desk, find a good place to unpack the unit, find my screwdrivers, hammer, alan keys, and finally dedicate a few hours of labor to assemble everything. I enjoy the process but it is not devoid of frustrations. In the end, I now have a desk I value more because of the labor I put into it.

This is the IKEA effect, a cognitive bias where we place a disproportionately high value on products that we have partially created. This makes people value things they had a part in building than the ones they didn’t. We face this challenge as developers every day, the classic build vs buy decisions when we build software. We’d love to build everything ourselves and in an ideal world this would be possible but we need to juggle business requirements, limited resources, and deadlines. The challenge is always in striking the right balance between building what is core to the business and finding ways to offload non-core tasks.
|
||||
|
||||
Just like how an IKEA desk is pretty useless if half-assembled, a feature we set out to build is pretty useless if we end up getting caught up in the implementation details and are unable to see it through. When we set out to build BoxyHQ we constantly heard about the challenges of enterprise readiness from startups. They have to support a range of compliance, security, and governance requirements from their enterprise customers and their developers end up spending 30-40% of their time bogged down in the details of implementation. These startups build teams to work on cool and exciting things that are core to their business but the reality is that non-core features start competing for attention. As a result these non-core features also end up being just good enough to check some boxes and never quite get as innovative as they can get.
|
||||
|
||||
We have seen software eat the world. This has led to more surface area for security exploits and leaks which in turn is driving a broader awareness of security topics in enterprises. Security has become the top priority for all companies now and is no longer seen as the sole responsibility of the CISO’s team. This means a shift-left trend in compliance and data security for developers and we are taking a new approach at BoxyHQ to solve this problem. BoxyHQ provides developers with non-core building blocks (described above) that integrate easily with their products. Simple self-hosted services and APIs that they can pull into their existing technology stack. Developers no longer have to worry about correctly implementing SAML login flows, building and scaling a robust audit logs service, or figuring out the best encryption technique to safeguard PII data.
|
||||
|
||||
BoxyHQ will build IKEA desks for all our customers so they don’t have to. Just sit at your pre-assembled desk and continue working on cool things that you set out to build in the first place.
|
||||
|
||||
PS: Announcing SAML Jackson (who doesn’t like a bit of Pulp Fiction), a SAML SSO service that works seamlessly as an OAuth 2.0 flow and abstracts away the tedious XML bits of the SAML protocol. Check out <https://github.com/boxyhq/jackson> and the demo at <https://github.com/boxyhq/jackson-examples/tree/main/apps/next-auth>. If SAML SSO is not relevant to you at this moment don’t forget to bookmark us and check back again. We are building a **"DevSecMesh"** over time so you can expect a lot of exciting features in the coming months.

You have decided to quit your job and start something on your own, congratulations! Welcome to a new way of living, as our little green friend told us some years ago “do or do not, there is no try”. Resilience and perseverance will be your two new best friends now; we all know that starting a company is not hard at all, but something hard at the beginning of the journey is finding product-market fit, especially if you are selling to enterprises (if you are an open-source founder, make sure you prioritize project-community fit first).

Having worked for companies like Amazon Web Services & O2-Telefónica connecting enterprises with startups around the world, there are some best practices that I would like to share. We just have to remember that enterprises are conformed by groups of people, and every person is different. So please, don’t expect the secret sauce or the “right way” to do it. Even though each case will be unique, always look for the patterns of what works best for your company. I like to use the process DIA (Discover – Imagine – Act) to overcome challenges, so let me take you through it.
|
||||
|
||||
## Discover
|
||||
|
||||
First, you have to understand the problem that you are solving. Is it really a problem or are you just in love with a good idea? Asking many times “why” will help you understand the hidden problem (the real one), and it will allow you to understand the needs that the enterprise has. Once you understand the needs of the enterprise, it is time to focus on understanding the needs of your user and your buyer, most of the time these are two different stakeholders within the organization. Is the need of the user a priority for the buyer, or is it just a distraction? You will see that in some organizations they are aligned and in others, they cannot even stand each other; so you must take the time to understand the dynamics between these stakeholders, and the culture of the enterprise itself (how they make decisions).
|
||||
|
||||
Sales cycles are indeed long if you look at them from a startup’s point of view. Remember that this is the standard speed for enterprises. Startups speak AGILE and Enterprises speak SECURITY, and for many people, these two terms can’t go together (don’t worry, we are proving them wrong @BoxyHQ). Enterprises have got plenty of software they already depend on that needs to work with whatever your product can do for them. Their technology is usually old, I have seen many enterprises with Frankensteins, they think they need to create a third leg to run faster and they end up building unnecessary technologies that affect the quality and the speed of their solutions. You need to focus on the cost of the enterprise (time and resources) to integrate your solution, and to do that you have to make sure that the impact is big enough to be worth it.
|
||||
|
||||
To make sure the impact you are generating is relevant to the enterprises focus on a few potential customers, as Jason Lemkin mentions “Almost all big companies now have innovation departments of some sort, as do many divisions and groups. The general idea is to bring in 1–2 new vendors a year that don’t risk taking the core business down but could have a material impact on the bottom line. If you truly can change the way they do business, you can often get a meeting. I’ve done this in both my start-ups in the earliest days with 10+ F500 companies in the first 90 days.”
|
||||
|
||||
This Discovery stage is also perfect to understand what your solution needs to have to be compliant; security is key for them. Startups that are not compliant with the enterprises’ requirements could delay the sales cycle, or what is worse they could lose the deal.
|
||||
|
||||
## Imagine
|
||||
|
||||
With all the information that you now have, it is time to visualize the future. Does your solution need some changes? Do you need new features to be compliant? Or could it be that maybe the enterprise doesn’t need all the features that you had in mind? Take some time to readjust your product as necessary, including how you are going to package it and how you are going to distribute it. Apply all the insights collected in the Discovery stage to test, measure, and iterate.
|
||||
|
||||
A common error that I have seen from startups is not focusing on selecting the right partners, and just moving forward with inbound opportunities. Some of them could be good but overall is a distraction to say yes to anyone that wants to resell your solution, you need to plan ahead.
|
||||
|
||||
Talking about planning, once you know who your internal sponsor is you need to facilitate the job for them. That is the person that will take your fights internally, so make sure you are giving them the right tools. If they see two concerns about integrating your solution, you should think of additional concerns and imagine how to mitigate each of them. You need to train your sponsor for unexpected scenarios that the decision committee will bring. Usually, enterprises ask for a “request for proposal” (RFP), the more you know about it, the better you will be prepared.
|
||||
|
||||
As an imagination exercise, I love Amazon’s Working Backwards process and the PRFAQ - you can learn more about it [here](https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/applying-amazons-working-backwards-process-leaders-ian-mcallister/). It is helpful to visualize the impact you aim to have and work backwards from your customer needs to create a solution. It is similar to the Design Thinking process, but the PRFAQ adds the manifestation piece.
|
||||
|
||||
## Act
|
||||
|
||||
Now is the time to act! But be careful, another mistake that many startups make is not executing at the right time, they spend too much time thinking (doing research) or they reach out to enterprises before making sure they are ready, burning your bridges. Timing is going to be key for you.
|
||||
|
||||
They need to trust you and your solution, every contact point is an opportunity for them to trust you, so make sure to go to these meetings well prepared, doing the right questions but at the same time with some insights on the market, their competitors, technologies, etc. You should be an expert in your niche but at the same time, you should be smart enough to listen. The more you know about them, the better you can adapt your solution and at the same time influence them.
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure you have the right metrics for your success cases, it doesn’t matter if you were selling to SMEs before or if you already had a few Proof of Concepts (POCs) with enterprises. Large companies don’t want to feel they are a guinea pig, if you did a POC and you didn’t move forward afterward most executives will not see it as unsuccessful, period.
|
||||
|
||||
Be patient, agile enterprises could spend between 6 to 12 months in conversations before signing an agreement, but many could take years (I’ve seen one company spending 3+ years). While you are waiting, make sure you are at the top of their mind, always adding value, not asking for unnecessary coffees. Key people will resign, will get fired, will change roles, so make sure you find a way to navigate these transitions, you don’t want to start from scratch.
|
||||
|
||||
Each enterprise is a different world, and there are more things you will find out while spending time with them, but I hope you find this blog post insightful. If you have any comments or questions you would like to discuss, please feel free to reach out. We have free Enterprise-Ready office hours to help startups be compliant and accelerate their sales cycle with enterprises.

One of our products, [Hermes](https://github.com/boxyhq/hermes) is an audit logs service. Currently, Hermes is in the prototype phase and uses a [Go](https://go.dev/) REST API server to ingest audit logs and send them to [Loki](https://grafana.com/oss/loki/).
|
||||
|
||||
We were trying out different databases, ingesters & tools to see which are best suited for Hermes and should be able to scale with high traffic without losing a single audit log & which can search through high amount data efficiently.
|
||||
|
||||
![Title Image](/img/blog/fluentbit-clickhouse.png)
|
||||
|
||||
We decided to benchmark different combinations of ingesters (Vector, Fluentd, Fluent-Bit, etc.) and storage & query tools (Mongodb, Clickhouse, Elasticsearch, etc.).
|
||||
|
||||
The first round of benchmarks will be lightweight and extensive benchmarks will follow later once we pick the right tools for Hermes.
|
||||
|
||||
## Hardware Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
The following tests and benchmarks have been performed on a MacBook Pro (14-inch, 2021) with Apple M1 Pro and 16 GB RAM, the tools to be tested were dockerized with docker desktop running with 4 GB Memory, 4 CPUs & 1 GB Swap.
|
||||
|
||||
> Fluent Bit is a super-fast, lightweight, highly scalable logging and metrics processor and forwarder.
|
||||
> It is the preferred choice for cloud and containerized environments.
|
||||
> Source: [fluent-bit website](https://fluentbit.io/)
|
||||
> Clickhouse is the fastest OLAP database on earth. ClickHouse works 100–1000x faster than traditional approaches.
|
||||
> Companies like Uber, Cloudflare, Spotify, and eBay use Clickhouse.
|
||||
> Source: [Clickhouse website](https://clickhouse.com/)
|
||||
|
||||
So few pointers before we go ahead,
|
||||
|
||||
1. Fluent-bit is fast at ingesting logs/data, processing them, and sending them to a destination.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Clickhouse is efficient at handling and querying data.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Fluent-bit does not support Clickhouse by default.
|
||||
|
||||
4. The fluent-bit ecosystem lets users write their plugins in Golang and add additional support required.
|
||||
|
||||
5. For faster querying in Clickhouse, an efficient table schema with indexes, compression, etc. should be established.
|
||||
|
||||
## Clickhouse plugin for fluent-bit
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- ![Funny Gif](https://media0.giphy.com/media/bAplZhiLAsNnG/giphy.webp?cid=dda24d507bdfdacf288d461758839009285c1ed114150484&rid=giphy.webp&ct=g) -->
|
||||
|
||||
I developed a fluent-bit output [plugin](https://github.com/boxyhq/fluent-bit-clickhouse) for Clickhouse.
|
||||
|
||||
## Fluent-Bit config
|
||||
|
||||
![Fluent-bit Configuration](/img/blog/fluentbit-config.png)
|
||||
|
||||
This config makes fluent-bit ingest data via HTTP server listening on port 8888 and sends the data to Clickhouse with configuration stated.
|
||||
|
||||
## Clickhouse config
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- ![Funny Gif](https://media0.giphy.com/media/aS8ypUweGOXMA/200w.webp?cid=dda24d5064d326145a245fce898f7775bc4b7e4ce5f8f178&rid=200w.webp&ct=g) -->
|
||||
|
||||
I ramped up the number of concurrent requests/queries by modifying the config.xml. After multiple tests, I finalized the following config.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Load testing tool
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- ![Funny Gif](https://media1.giphy.com/media/B6SyssSlTgPXq/200w.webp?cid=dda24d50edfaf581e3165a3d10a7dd26c246ebb459fcebb5&rid=200w.webp&ct=g) -->
|
||||
|
||||
I developed a load testing tool with Node.js that can be used to benchmark REST API-based endpoints of Fluent-bit.
|
||||
|
||||
[API Benchmarking](https://github.com/boxyhq/api-benchmarking)
|
||||
|
||||
Another tool to load test is the querying part of Clickhouse.
|
||||
|
||||
[Clickhouse Load Testing](https://github.com/boxyhq/clickhouse-db-load-testing)
|
||||
|
||||
## The results
|
||||
|
||||
These results are dependent on the ram allocated to the Docker engine, in my case, it's(4 GiBs).
|
||||
|
||||
### Ingester

![Queryer result](/img/blog/results-query.png)
|
||||
|
||||
## Conclusion
|
||||
|
||||
### Ingester
|
||||
|
||||
1. Fluent-bit can handle loads up to 2000 req/sec but in the case of bigger batches, the speed goes down drastically. (200 X 10) & (300 X 10)
|
||||
|
||||
2. In the case of long-term light batches, Fluent-bit performs consistently. (10 X 1000)
|
||||
|
||||
3. Fluent-bit performs at average speeds in the case of average loads (50 X 50).
|
||||
|
||||
### Query
|
||||
|
||||
1. Clickhouse shows the best req/sec performance with an average load (50 X 50).
|
||||
|
||||
2. Also, Clickhouse's performance was pretty satisfactory for all the different variations of records in DB. (1.1 mils, 50k, 25k, 10k, 2k & 1k).
|
||||
|
||||
3. Clickhouse was able to manage short-term high loads and long-term light loads efficiently. (100 X 10) and (10 X 5000).
|
||||
|
||||
We will be posting more blogs regarding benchmarks, tools, etc., as we go on to build Hermes and many other dev tools. Please leave comments below.

|
||||
|
||||
In this article, you'll learn how add SAML SSO login to an Express.js app. You'll use [SAML Jackson](https://boxyhq.com/docs/jackson/overview) with [Auth0](https://auth0.com/single-sign-on) to authenticate users and protect routes.
|
||||
|
||||
You can also access the full code at the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/boxyhq/express-jackson-auth0-demo).
|
||||
|
||||
Let’s get started!
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
To follow along with this article, you’ll need the following:
|
||||
|
||||
- Node.js installed on your computer
|
||||
- Basic knowledge about Node.js and Express.js
|
||||
|
||||
## Setting up the database
|
||||
|
||||
For our article, we’ll create a free [Postgres database on Heroku](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-postgresql) instead of setting up a local Postgres server.
|
||||
|
||||
- Go to [Heroku signup page](https://signup.heroku.com/login), then create an account.
|
||||
- Go to [Apps](https://dashboard.heroku.com/apps) and click **Create new app**.
|
||||
- Give your app a name, and click the **Create app** button.
|
||||
- Go to the **Resources** tab.
|
||||
- Choose the **Heroku Postgres** from the Add-ons search box, and click **Submit Order Form**.
|
||||
- Click the **Heroku Postgres** and select **Settings** tab.
|
||||
- Click the **View Credentials** button and copy **URI**.
|
||||
|
||||
Now you have created a free PostgreSQL database and copied the database connection URI. We'll need the connection URI later.
|
||||
|
||||
## Configure the Identity Provider
|
||||
|
||||
We'll use the Auth0 as our identity provider. An Identity Provider (IdP) is a service that manage user accounts for your app.
|
||||
|
||||
- First, go to the [Auth0 signup page](https://auth0.com/signup), then create an account.
|
||||
- Go to [Dashboard > Applications > Applications](https://manage.auth0.com/dashboard/).
|
||||
- Click the **Create Application** button.
|
||||
- Give your new application a name.
|
||||
- Choose **Regular Web Applications** as an application type and the click **Create**.
|
||||
- Go to the app you created, then click the **Addons** tab.
|
||||
- In the **SAML2 Web App** box, click the slider to enable the Addon.
|
||||
- Go to the **Usage** tab and download the **Identity Provider Metadata**.
|
||||
- Go to the **Settings** tab and make below changes.
|
||||
- Add `http://localhost:3000/sso/acs` as your **Application Callback URL** that receives the SAML response.
|
||||
- Paste the following JSON for **Settings**, then click **Enable** button.
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"audience": "https://saml.boxyhq.com",
|
||||
"mappings": {
|
||||
"id": "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/nameidentifier",
|
||||
"email": "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/emailaddress",
|
||||
"firstName": "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/givenname",
|
||||
"lastName": "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/surname"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`audience` is just an identifier to validate the SAML audience. [More info](https://boxyhq.com/docs/jackson/deploy/env-variables#saml_audience).
|
||||
|
||||
Auth0 provides database connections to authenticate users with an email/username and password. These credentials are securely stored in the Auth0 user store.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's create one so that our users can register or login.
|
||||
|
||||
- Go to [Auth0 Dashboard > Authentication > Database](https://manage.auth0.com/dashboard/).
|
||||
- Click **Create DB Connection** - [Auth0 Create DB Document](https://auth0.com/docs/authenticate/database-connections/custom-db/create-db-connection)
|
||||
- Give your connection a name, then click **Create**.
|
||||
- Go to the **Applications** tab and enable the application you just created.
|
||||
|
||||
Now we've everything ready, let's move to the next step.
|
||||
|
||||
## Getting started
|
||||
|
||||
Launch a terminal and clone the GitHub repo:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/devkiran/express-saml.git
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd express-saml
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now, install the dependencies:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npm install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Add the environment variables:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cp .env.example .env
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Update the `DATABASE_URL` variable with your Heroku Postgres database connection URI.
|
||||
|
||||
Append `?sslmode=no-verify` to your database connection URI otherwise Heroku won't allow you to link to the database. This is a Heroku specific configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
For example `postgres://hcydrtasctfyth:fe001b264322d6cf794@ec2-1-2-3-4.compute-1.amazonaws.com:5432/demo?sslmode=no-verify`
|
||||
|
||||
## About the Express app
|
||||
|
||||
This is a simple express.js app created using `express-generator`. You can use any express.js app if you want.
|
||||
|
||||
Our express.js app has only 2 routes.
|
||||
|
||||
- `GET /` render a home page
|
||||
- `GET /dashboard` render a dashboard
|
||||
|
||||
So, what's the plan? We'll add SAML SSO login (via Auth0) to our express.js app so that only authenticated users can access the `/dashboard`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Install SAML Jackson
|
||||
|
||||
Run the following command to install the latest version of the SAML Jackson.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npm i --save @boxyhq/saml-jackson
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Once you installed Jackson, let's initialize it.
|
||||
|
||||
Add the following code to the `routes/index.js`.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// routes/index.js
|
||||
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
let apiController;
|
||||
let oauthController;
|
||||
|
||||
const jacksonOptions = {
|
||||
externalUrl: process.env.APP_URL,
|
||||
samlAudience: process.env.SAML_AUDIENCE,
|
||||
samlPath: '/sso/acs',
|
||||
db: {
|
||||
engine: 'sql',
|
||||
type: 'postgres',
|
||||
url: process.env.DATABASE_URL,
|
||||
},
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
(async function init() {
|
||||
const jackson = await require('@boxyhq/saml-jackson').controllers(jacksonOptions);
|
||||
|
||||
apiController = jackson.apiController;
|
||||
oauthController = jackson.oauthController;
|
||||
})();
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Setting up Express.js routes
|
||||
|
||||
### Add SAML Metadata
|
||||
|
||||
The first route you'll create is the `GET /config` one. This route will display a form with following fields:
|
||||
|
||||
- `Metadata`: Enter the XML Metadata content you've downloaded from IdP.
|
||||
- `Tenant`: Jackson supports a multi-tenant architecture, this is a unique identifier you set from your side that relates back to your customer's tenant. This is normally an email, domain, an account id, or user-id.
|
||||
- `Product`: Jackson support multiple products, this is a unique identifier you set from your side that relates back to the product your customer is using.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// routes/index.js
|
||||
|
||||
router.get('/config', async (req, res) => {
|
||||
res.render('config');
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Add a view to display the form.
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!-- views/config.ejs -->
|
||||
|
||||
<!DOCTYPE html>
|
||||
<html>
|
||||
<head>
|
||||
<title>SAML Config</title>
|
||||
<link
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/stylesheets/style.css" />
|
||||
</head>
|
||||
<body>
|
||||
<h1>SAML Config</h1>
|
||||
<p>Add SAML Metadata.</p>
|
||||
<form action="/config" method="POST">
|
||||
<div class="form-group">
|
||||
<label for="tenant">Tenant</label>
|
||||
<input
|
||||
type="text"
|
||||
name="tenant"
|
||||
id="tenant"
|
||||
class="form-control col-md-6"
|
||||
required="required"
|
||||
/>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<div class="form-group">
|
||||
<label for="product">Product</label>
|
||||
<input
|
||||
type="text"
|
||||
name="product"
|
||||
id="product"
|
||||
class="form-control col-md-6"
|
||||
required="required"
|
||||
/>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<div class="form-group">
|
||||
<label for="rawMetadata">Metadata (Raw XML)</label>
|
||||
<textarea
|
||||
name="rawMetadata"
|
||||
id="rawMetadata"
|
||||
cols="30"
|
||||
rows="10"
|
||||
class="form-control col-md-6"
|
||||
required="required"
|
||||
></textarea>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
|
||||
</form>
|
||||
</body>
|
||||
</html>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now let's add another route `POST /config` that will store the form data by calling the SAML Jackson config API.
|
||||
|
||||
This step is the equivalent of setting an OAuth 2.0 app and generating a client ID and client secret that will be used in the login flow.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// routes/index.js
|
||||
|
||||
router.post('/config', async (req, res, next) => {
|
||||
const { rawMetadata, tenant, product } = req.body;
|
||||
|
||||
const defaultRedirectUrl = 'http://localhost:3000/sso/callback';
|
||||
const redirectUrl = '["http://localhost:3000/*"]';
|
||||
|
||||
try {
|
||||
await apiController.config({
|
||||
rawMetadata,
|
||||
tenant,
|
||||
product,
|
||||
defaultRedirectUrl,
|
||||
redirectUrl,
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
res.redirect('/config');
|
||||
} catch (err) {
|
||||
next(err);
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
There are a few important things to note in the code above.
|
||||
|
||||
`defaultRedirectUrl` holds the redirect URL to use in the IdP login flow. Jackson will call this URL after completing an IdP login flow.
|
||||
|
||||
`redirectUrl` holds an array containing a list of allowed redirect URLs. Jackson will disallow any redirects that are not on this list.
|
||||
|
||||
Next, let's start the express app. The app starts a server and listens on port 3000 (by default) for connections.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npm start
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now, let's visit [http://localhost:3000/config](http://localhost:3000/config), you should see the page with a form.
|
||||
|
||||
![SAML Config](/img/blog/add-saml-sso-to-node-express-app/add-saml-config-form.png)
|
||||
|
||||
Here you can add the metadata you've downloaded from Auth0. Fill out the form with a Tenant, Product, and paste the metadata XML content as it is.
|
||||
|
||||
I'll use 'boxyhq.com' for tenant and 'crm' for product.
|
||||
|
||||
The response returns a JSON with `client_id` and `client_secret` that can be stored against your tenant and product for a more secure OAuth 2.0 flow.
|
||||
|
||||
If you do not want to store the `client_id` and `client_secret` you can alternatively use `client_id=tenant=<tenantID>&product=<productID>` and any arbitrary value for `client_secret` when setting up the OAuth 2.0 flow.
|
||||
|
||||
### Redirect the users to IdP
|
||||
|
||||
Now you have added the SAML metadata, you'll need a route to redirect the users to IdP to start the SAML authentication.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's add a new route `GET /sso/authorize`.
|
||||
|
||||
Don't forget to change the values of the tenant and product in the code.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// routes/index.js
|
||||
|
||||
router.get('/sso/authorize', async (req, res, next) => {
|
||||
try {
|
||||
const tenant = 'boxyhq.com';
|
||||
const product = 'crm';
|
||||
|
||||
const body = {
|
||||
response_type: 'code',
|
||||
client_id: `tenant=${tenant}&product=${product}`,
|
||||
redirect_uri: 'http://localhost:3000/sso/callback',
|
||||
state: 'a-random-state-value',
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
const { redirect_url } = await oauthController.authorize(body);
|
||||
|
||||
res.redirect(redirect_url);
|
||||
} catch (err) {
|
||||
next(err);
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`oauthController.authorize()` will returns a `redirect_url`. You should redirect the users to this `redirect_url` to start the IdP authentication flow.
|
||||
|
||||
### Handle the SAML Response from IdP
|
||||
|
||||
This route becomes the Assertion Consumer Service (ACS) URL of your app. The ACS URL tells your IdP where to POST its SAML Response after authenticating a user.
|
||||
|
||||
The SAML Response contains 2 fields: `SAMLResponse` and `RelayState`.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// routes/index.js
|
||||
|
||||
router.post('/sso/acs', async (req, res, next) => {
|
||||
try {
|
||||
const { SAMLResponse, RelayState } = req.body;
|
||||
|
||||
const body = {
|
||||
SAMLResponse,
|
||||
RelayState,
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
const { redirect_url } = await oauthController.samlResponse(body);
|
||||
|
||||
res.redirect(redirect_url);
|
||||
} catch (err) {
|
||||
next(err);
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Call to the method `oauthController.samlResponse()` will returns a `redirect_url`. You should redirect the users to this `redirect_url`. The query parameters will include the `code` and `state` parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
### Code exchange
|
||||
|
||||
Now exchange the `code` for a `token`. The `token` is required to access the user profile.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's create a new route `GET /sso/callback` to handle the callback.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// routes/index.js
|
||||
|
||||
router.get('/sso/callback', async (req, res, next) => {
|
||||
const { code } = req.query;
|
||||
|
||||
const tenant = 'boxyhq.com';
|
||||
const product = 'crm';
|
||||
|
||||
const body = {
|
||||
code,
|
||||
client_id: `tenant=${tenant}&product=${product}`,
|
||||
client_secret: 'client_secret',
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
try {
|
||||
// Get the access token
|
||||
const { access_token } = await oauthController.token(body);
|
||||
|
||||
// Get the user information
|
||||
const profile = await oauthController.userInfo(access_token);
|
||||
|
||||
// Add the profile to the express session
|
||||
req.session.profile = profile;
|
||||
|
||||
res.redirect('/dashboard');
|
||||
} catch (err) {
|
||||
next(err);
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In the above code, replace the value for `tenant` and `product` with yours.
|
||||
|
||||
### Protect the dashboard
|
||||
|
||||
Now is the time to fix our `GET /dashboard` route so that only authenticated users can access it.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's fix it by adding a condition to check if the `profile` exists in the session.
|
||||
|
||||
If `profile` is `undefined`, redirect the users back to the `/` otherwise display the profile on the dashboard.
|
||||
|
||||
Replace the `GET /dashboard` route with the below code.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// routes/index.js
|
||||
|
||||
router.get('/dashboard', function (req, res, next) {
|
||||
const { profile } = req.session;
|
||||
|
||||
if (profile === undefined) {
|
||||
return res.redirect('/');
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Pass the profile to the view
|
||||
res.render('dashboard', {
|
||||
profile,
|
||||
});
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Replace the `views/dashboard.ejs` view with the below code.
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!-- views/dashboard.ejs -->
|
||||
|
||||
<!DOCTYPE html>
|
||||
<html>
|
||||
<head>
|
||||
<title>Dashboard</title>
|
||||
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/stylesheets/style.css" />
|
||||
</head>
|
||||
<body>
|
||||
<h1>Dashboard</h1>
|
||||
<p>Only authenticated users should access this page.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Id - <%= profile.id %></p>
|
||||
<p>Email - <%= profile.email %></p>
|
||||
</body>
|
||||
</html>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
From the command line, let's restart the express app then visit the authorize the URL [http://localhost:3000/sso/authorize](http://localhost:3000/sso/authorize).
|
||||
|
||||
If you've configured everything okay, it should redirect you to the Auth0 authentication page, then click on the Sign up link and register there
|
||||
|
||||
If the authentication is successful, the app will redirect you to the dashboard and display the `id`, `email` of the user.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Conclusion
|
||||
|
||||
Congratulations, you should now have a functioning SAML SSO integrated with your express.js app using the SAML Jackson and Auth0.

This article follows my first article in which I explain the basics of SAML from the users' side. If you haven't read that one already I would recommend reading that one first [here](./2022-06-30-understanding-saml-sso-the-basics-from-the-user-side.md). In this article, we are going to take a look at what SAML authentication and setup look like from the solution providers' perspective.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are a B2B solutions provider and you plan to have enterprise customers they will likely ask that your product supports SAML SSO. This is because the customer will already be using an IDP to manage user access and security to their services. Anything outside this will be a risk and not fit into their user's workflows.
|
||||
|
||||
Most larger solution providers have already invested a lot of time and money into building SAML integrations with IDP providers but this leaves smaller competitors with less time and resources at a disadvantage as they often haven't been able to prioritize enterprise security features over the core product build.
|
||||
|
||||
The main reason why smaller companies don’t implement SAML as part of the standard build is that it traditionally takes a long time as they have to build a custom integration with each IDP provider their customers use. Well, this is now an old issue because we have created BoxyHQ which allows you to connect to our free product with one single integration that then connects to all the IDPs for you! Let's take a look at what the integrations with and without BoxyHQ look like first.
|
||||
|
||||
![Without BoxyHQ](/img/blog/sso/without-boxyhq.png)
|
||||
|
||||
In the diagram above we can see what it looks like when you build a custom SAML integration with each IDP. As you can see for each IDP you have to connect all the instances of your product and build a unique integration. This can take months and take the focus away from your team building your core product. We believe that enterprise readiness should be accessible and easy for businesses of all sizes so we built BoxyHQ. Let's see what that looks like.
|
||||
|
||||
![With BoxyHQ](/img/blog/sso/with-boxyhq.png)
|
||||
|
||||
As you can see from the image above with BoxyHQ you only have to connect your product with a straightforward integration to BoxyHQ and then we manage and connect you to all the IDPs! It is that simple and you can deploy SAML SSO for your clients in as little as 8 days. We are also open source and free so you don't need to worry about big maintenance bills, we will even offer you custom support during the integration.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are interested in becoming enterprise-ready without the hassle then let's chat! You can [book](https://meetings.hubspot.com/deepakprab/demo) a free consultation call and chat with our CEO about how we can help. Let's start the journey together.

I have always worked in tech, so have always needed to understand the technical nature of the products we are building. This process has always been over-complicated for me so I now always try to write a guide for non-technical people like me. It turns out that once you understand it you can explain it to other non-technical people much easier! So here we go as I try to explain SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) SSO (single sign-on) and why BoxyHQ makes it so easy to implement. Firstly you have probably heard of not only SAML but OAuth 2.0 and OIDC, these are all protocols that achieve the same result of providing SSO. There are a few nuances but those are out of scope for this article to keep things simple.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's start with what SAML SSO is and what it does. An example of SAML SSO in action would be a user in your company signs into a single dashboard and inside that dashboard, they have all the icons for the external services they use such as their CRM (Hubspot) and accounting software (Xero). The user can now just log in to any of their services by clicking on them rather than logging into each one individually.
|
||||
|
||||
But how does this work? Well, the idea behind SAML SSO is that by centralizing your access to an external system you can better manage access and permission as well as improve security. So in our example, the dashboard that allowed the user to just click an icon and log in was SAML in action. Because the company has connected to its external servicing using SAML it can now let its users access all the services from a single point. This single point of access is known as the IdP (Identity Provider) which authenticates the access to all the other services via SAML.
|
||||
|
||||
The diagrams below show how this access flow would work with and without SAML:
|
||||
![Without SAML SSO](/img/blog/sso/without-saml.png)
|
||||
|
||||
In the diagram above we can see that the company is not using SAML so the user has to log into each of the services with an individual username and password. The username and password are managed by the service provider and access is also managed via an admin user on the service provider's side. The user must be given access to each of the services from each of the services and remember the login details for each one.
|
||||
|
||||
![With SAML SSO](/img/blog/sso/with-saml.png)
|
||||
|
||||
In the image above we can see that the company is using an IdP such as Okta so the user simply has to log in once and then can access all the external services from a single dashboard. This also means that the company admins can manage access to the different services as they control the access directly from their IdP.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, remember that this is just a high-level overview of SAML and the technical aspects behind the scenes can get a lot more complicated.
|
||||
|
||||
We have been looking at SAML from a company user's perspective but it's also important to remember that these service providers also have to build a SAML integration to enable them to connect to their clients’ IdPs. This can be a very long and time-consuming process for service providers and this is where BoxyHQ comes in. Instead of service providers building a custom integration for each IdP their customers use which can take months, the service providers can use BoxyHQ and have all the connections to IdPs they need with a single integration! You can be SAML-ready in as little as 8 days! To understand how this looks check out my other blog [here](./2022-06-30-understanding-saml-sso-the-basics-from-the-solution-providers-side.md).
|
||||
|
||||
So what are the main benefits of SAML? Here are three of the most important ones I have identified.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Increased Security
|
||||
|
||||
SAML is at its heart a security standard and as it provides a single point of authentication that takes place in a secure environment it adds an extra layer of security to your service that most enterprise customers will ask for.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Improved user experience
|
||||
|
||||
As a user using SAML is very simple and pleasant to use as you only have to log in once and then you can access all your external services on a dashboard with a single click. This saves the user time and makes their overall experience of your product better.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Reduces cost
|
||||
|
||||
Without SAML you have to maintain account information across multiple services but when you use SAML this is all managed by the IdP.
|
||||
|
||||
BoxyHQ is open source and our SAML SSO product, SAML Jackson is just the first product we have built to help companies become enterprise-ready. If you are interested in discussing your authentication strategy or deploying SAML SSO you can book a call with our CEO [here](https://meetings.hubspot.com/deepakprab/demo) to discuss how we can support you.
|
||||

|

If you are thinking about building features to be enterprise-ready, there are typically two paths that brought you here:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Your team has initially focused on smaller customers and is now looking to expand, or
|
||||
2. Your team is building a new product and targeting enterprise customers from day 1
|
||||
|
||||
Either way, you need to be aware that selling to enterprises is super exciting, especially if you like to play golf and you are ok with a long sales cycle - it could easily take you up to three years to close a deal.
|
||||
|
||||
Enterprises can be scared to give startups a chance and startups often lose out to more established businesses. However, there are two great ways to make sure your business doesn't miss out:
|
||||
|
||||
- List of other enterprise customers (“show me more logos, we are not a guinea pig”)
|
||||
- Compliance requirements (“a checklist to show my boss you are safe”)
|
||||
|
||||
![Security risks everywhere](/img/blog/dontbuild/security-risks-meme.jpeg)
|
||||
|
||||
But what is enterprise readiness? From a product perspective, [EnterpriseReady.io](https://www.enterpriseready.io) identified common features that set enterprise software apart. You can do a free self-assessment [here](https://www.enterprisegrade.io/). The basics mean that your business meets the standards that enterprises look for in solution providers.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, the good news is that to be enterprise-ready you don’t need to build these common undifferentiated features which can drain your resources and bank account. Here is why:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Customer Obsession – You need to forget about product development and narrow your attention to customer development. You need to talk to potential enterprise customers and understand their current needs, pains, motivations, processes, etc. Remember that they’ve got plenty of software they already depend on that will need to work smoothly with yours. On top of learning how to navigate the enterprise, you need to identify Infosec barriers and consider how to mitigate them; if your solution needs to process internal data, things will be more complex.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Time to market – Instead of spending months building in-house enterprise-grade features, there are off-the-shelf enterprise readiness solutions that you can integrate into your SaaS app with just a few lines of code. There is no need to wait months to build Single Sign-On (SSO), Directory Sync, Audit Logs, Privacy Vault, and other boring stuff that enterprises ask for anymore, now you could plug them within hours. And your team can spend more time building your core product instead of non-core features that won’t add value to your customers’ main needs.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Cut engineering costs – Out-of-the-box solutions will help your company save developers time. If you consider the learning curve, coding, fixing bugs, and all the hassle that your tech team needs to go through, you will realize that people’s time is more expensive than developer tools. And the good news is that there are reliable open source solutions that you could use at no cost. Free and trustworthy? That’s the beauty of open source communities. Self-hosting these solutions will allow your company to maintain a level of control that will simplify things if you need to be certified (SOC2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, etc).
|
||||
|
||||
Here are 3 open-source solutions that could be interesting for you - BoxyHQ (**disclaimer, I'm a Co-Founder here**), [Supertokens](https://supertokens.com), and [Oso](https://www.osohq.com). There are plenty of other solutions that are relevant, we are building a list and would love to learn about other projects you use, please share them with me.
|
||||
|
||||
Let’s be sincere, will your engineers focus on building the best SAML SSO feature or will they just focus on checking the box? Compliance security could be expensive in the long term when working with large enterprises. Especially if things go wrong because being compliant doesn’t mean your SaaS app is unhackable.
|
||||
|
||||
Remember that not all enterprises are the same. But working with a few design partners will help your team to define an efficient product roadmap, build a robust go-to-market strategy, and you will close more enterprise deals.
|
||||
|
||||
Deals, deals, deals!

Let’s start with some facts to understand why it sucks!
|
||||
|
||||
On one hand:
|
||||
|
||||
- Cybercrime went up 600% due to the COVID-19 Pandemic
|
||||
- Data breaches and cyber attacks in 2021 were 5.1 billion breached records, this is 11% more than in 2020
|
||||
- 79% of companies have experienced at least one cloud data breach in the past 18 months
|
||||
- Software supply chain attacks jumped over 300% in 2021
|
||||
- It is estimated that worldwide, cyber crimes will cost $10.5 trillion annually by 2025.
|
||||
|
||||
(Data from Purplesec, IT Governance, VentureBeat)
|
||||
|
||||
On the other hand:
|
||||
|
||||
- 70% of development teams always or frequently skip security steps due to time pressures when completing projects
|
||||
- Almost 60% of devs are releasing code 2x faster, thanks to DevOps.
|
||||
- In 2021, only 20% of organizations have fully integrated security into the development
|
||||
- Security has low priority. 67% of developers surveyed by Secure Code Warrior admitted that they routinely left known vulnerabilities and exploits in their code
|
||||
- Github expects the number of software developers using its platform (56 million in 2020), to grow to 100 million developers in 2025
|
||||
|
||||
(Invicti Security, Gitlab, GitHub, VentureBeat)
|
||||
|
||||
**Security vs Developers**
|
||||
|
||||
Security teams focus on planning secure IT environments, but developers are asked to focus on productivity while they are also tasked with implementing these security plans. The main issue is that developers are often left out of security planning processes, creating a strained relationship between these two teams.
|
||||
|
||||
It is important to build a healthy relationship where trust, communication, and collaboration are key to moving toward the organization’s north star. But traditional security teams sometimes see themselves as inspectors of the developer's work. And that attitude needs to change - “when you’re a hammer, everything is a nail”.
|
||||
|
||||
Did you know that in “Gartner's Top Strategic Technology Trends for 2022: Cybersecurity Mesh”, the word "developer" is not included not even once? We were shocked about it; developers need to have a leading role in cybersecurity!
|
||||
|
||||
**It’s “Shift Left Security” time!**
|
||||
|
||||
With shift left security we mean moving security sooner in the development process.
|
||||
Teams should provide developers with the right tools to do their job securely; this is why it is essential to automate product security.
|
||||
|
||||
But most of the new security solutions are focused on selling to the CISOs and their security teams, maybe because they are the ones with the budget for “security”; but what about developers? Most of their new solutions are oriented toward productivity, which makes sense since we live in an agile world, but what if there were new developer-first security solutions? Well, it is about time; a recent survey from Forrester shows that last year 27% of organizations had their development teams holding the budget for application security tools and that number has increased to 37% this year.
|
||||
|
||||
**Developer-first security Tools**
|
||||
|
||||
While some security tools for developers have started to appear, it is still early days. The ecosystem needs solutions to automate security for developers and most importantly, that is reliable. Our hypothesis is that the most important products will come from the open-source community; they have a genuine interest in supporting and empowering developers.
|
||||
|
||||
We are consolidating a list of reliable open source developer-first security tools for security, if you know of a project we should consider, or if you would like to have access to this list, please send me an email: sama@boxyhq.com or/and help us spread the word! 🙌

|

|
||||
This article will walk you through everything you should know about SCIM and Directory Sync.
|
||||
|
||||
## What is SCIM?
|
||||
|
||||
System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) is an open standard that allows for the automation of user provisioning (Directory Sync).
|
||||
|
||||
SCIM facilitates user identity data communication between Identity Providers (Okta, OneLogin, etc.) and Service Providers (Enterprise SaaS apps).
|
||||
|
||||
## Why should you care about SCIM?
|
||||
|
||||
Many companies manually onboard and offboard users, which consumes many IT resources and time.
|
||||
|
||||
User lifecycle management (ULM) begins when employees start their job and continue until they leave the company. ULM is all about provisioning and de-provisioning users when they join an organization.
|
||||
|
||||
For IT departments, this means creating an account for the new employees in the cloud apps they need to use after starting their job. Also, IT departments must ensure that when those employees leave, they revoke access to those accounts.
|
||||
|
||||
Smaller organizations might address these procedures manually, but the process can become error-prone and time-consuming when done at scale. This is where the SCIM and Directory Sync come to the organization's rescue.
|
||||
|
||||
## What is Directory Sync?
|
||||
|
||||
Directory sync helps organizations automate the provisioning and de-provisioning of their users.
|
||||
|
||||
As a result, it streamlines the user lifecycle management process by saving valuable organizational hours, creating a single truth source of the user identity data, and facilitating them to keep the data secure.
|
||||
|
||||
## How does the Directory Sync work?
|
||||
|
||||
Directory sync allows programmatic access to the user identity data via a standard protocol (SCIM).
|
||||
|
||||
Directory sync implementation typically involves a client and a server. A client is an identity provider (IDP) with a directory of user identities. A service provider (SP) is an enterprise SaaS app that needs a subset of data from those identities.
|
||||
|
||||
When you make changes to the user identities, the changes are automatically synced to the SP according to the SCIM protocol. SP can now process this data according to the way they want.
|
||||
|
||||
Some common user identity changes include adding new users to the organization, updating existing users, removing users from the organization, adding users to groups, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
Technically, SCIM is a set of APIs that allows you to manipulate the users and group objects and expose these data as JSON through the REST endpoints.
|
||||
|
||||
## How to add Directory Sync to your SaaS app?
|
||||
|
||||
Building Directory sync implementation yourself can be tedious and time-consuming for any engineering team.
|
||||
|
||||
Below are some questions the engineering team should answer before starting building Directory sync.
|
||||
|
||||
- How do we support multiple identity providers?
|
||||
- How much effort should the team put into support & maintenance?
|
||||
- Do we have developers with good knowledge of SCIM and its security?
|
||||
- Is it worth building the Directory sync ourselves?
|
||||
|
||||
In short, building Directory sync yourself is not a good idea. It requires a lot of tedious engineering work and ongoing maintenance.
|
||||
|
||||
The best alternative is an open-source dedicated Directory Sync implementation provider like SAML Jackson from BoxyHQ.

|
||||
## SAML SSO
|
||||
|
||||
SAML stands for Security Assertion Markup Language. It is an XML-based open standard for transferring identity data between an identity provider (IdP) and a service provider (SP).
|
||||
|
||||
[Single Sign On (SSO)](/blog/understanding-saml-sso-the-basics-from-the-solution-providers-side) allows your customers to manage their team's users outside your built-in user table.
|
||||
|
||||
SAML SSO is integrated with the help of [SAML Jackson](https://github.com/boxyhq/jackson)
|
||||
|
||||
## Directory Sync (SCIM)
|
||||
|
||||
[Directory sync](/blog/understanding-scim-and-directory-sync) helps organizations automate the provisioning and de-provisioning of their users.
|
||||
|
||||
As a result, it streamlines the user lifecycle management process by saving valuable organizational hours, creating a single truth source of the user identity data, and facilitating them to keep the data secure.
|
||||
|
||||
Directory Sync is integrated with the help of [SAML Jackson](https://github.com/boxyhq/jackson#directory-sync)
|
||||
|
||||
## Audit Logs
|
||||
|
||||
Provide enterprise customers with the ability to record and search events that happen within your application. With our simple integration, you can become compliant fast and save your team from building complex solutions from scratch.
|
||||
|
||||
Organizations gain the ability to monitor the flow of data and be alerted to any breaches. Audit logs help to pinpoint any misuse of information and ensure that data policies are followed.
|
||||
|
||||
## Webhooks & Events
|
||||
|
||||
Webhooks are a way for systems to notify external applications that a specific event has occurred in your SaaS app without receiving a request.
|
||||
|
||||
Webhooks are a great solution if the client does not know when an event will occur and wants to be notified in real-time.
|
||||
|
||||
Webhook is integrated with the help of [Svix](https://github.com/svix/svix-webhooks)
|
||||
|
||||
## Team Management
|
||||
|
||||
Teams describe the functionality that enables modern software to be coordinated and managed.
|
||||
|
||||
Through Teams, SaaS app users invite others to collaboratively use the application with them by creating an account.
|
||||
|
||||

We have already covered SAML at a high level from both [user](2022-06-30-understanding-saml-sso-the-basics-from-the-user-side.md) and [application provider](2022-06-30-understanding-saml-sso-the-basics-from-the-solution-providers-side.md) points of view.
|
||||
|
||||
In this post, we'll dive into the technicalities of SAML, OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect and how these come together to serve as building blocks for Jackson SSO.
|
||||
|
||||
## SAML
|
||||
|
||||
SAML was designed for traditional web applications in the early 2000s. The goal was to provide a seamless user experience for applications by federating authentication to an IdP. As a result, applications no longer had to maintain identities for users. All they had to do was to redirect the browser to the IdP which would then authenticate the user and return an assertion about the logged-in user. This assertion in effect was a token, asserting to the app that the user authenticated at the IdP and the assertion is valid for the set period contained within it.
|
||||
|
||||
While SAML gave us a solution to the problem of SSO or federated identity, it does not address the issue of authorization.
|
||||
|
||||
The need for authorization arose with the dawn of Single Page Apps (SPA) and native platforms such as mobile. More and more logic started moving from backend to frontend and an ecosystem of apps that could talk to one another (via HTTP(S)) sprung up. For eg:- You could reserve movie tickets and send invitations to your Facebook friends. This meant that applications started acting on behalf of the end-user, requesting data (friend list) from other services (Facebook). One way we could solve it was by sharing our credentials (for services) with the app. Nothing could be more dangerous than this, because now the application can virtually do anything the user could do. This paved the path for standards like OAuth that provides us with a mechanism to grant controlled and limited access to resources on behalf of the user.
|
||||
|
||||
## OAuth 2.0
|
||||
|
||||
The OAuth 2.0 Authorization framework enables a third-party application/client to obtain limited access to an HTTP service on behalf of the resource owner (or user). In the final step of this process, the client receives a short-lived access token that can be used to access the protected resources.
|
||||
|
||||
The flow starts with the app redirecting the user agent to an intermediary Authorization server (AS). The AS authenticates the user and obtains permission from the user to access resources. Once that's done, AS redirects back to the client with an Authorization code. The Authorization code is a grant or a credential representing the user's authorization to be used by the client. In the final step, the client uses this code to obtain an access token. This flow otherwise called Authorization Code grant is one of 4 grant types that are supported. For sake of simplicity, we can omit the others for now.
|
||||
|
||||
The above-mentioned flow offers a few benefits:
|
||||
|
||||
- The user only authenticates with the authorization server and the credentials are never shared with the app.
|
||||
- The access token is not transmitted<sup>\*</sup> via the user agent but directly to the client via an HTTP request.
|
||||
- The Client can be authenticated by the authorization server by using a client secret.
|
||||
|
||||
**\*** _It's worth mentioning the fact that another grant type 'implicit grant' does return an access token via the user agent in the redirect URL fragment_
|
||||
|
||||
#### Using OAuth 2.0 for authentication
|
||||
|
||||
Since authentication usually occurs before issuing the access token, it is usually assumed that possession of an access token is proof that authentication happened. The access token is then used to query the Identity API to obtain user details.
|
||||
|
||||
However, this does not fully serve as proof of authentication and has several pitfalls:
|
||||
|
||||
- The access token is opaque to the client and its intended audience is the protected resource server.
|
||||
- There is no way to know if the user is still around because information about the authentication event is not exposed.
|
||||
- In situations where clients get an access token directly in the return URL (implicit grant), there is a high chance that an attacker can inject their malicious token. This can be mitigated by using the Authorization code flow as the token is retrieved from the token endpoint directly.
|
||||
- OAuth does not define a standard set of fields for the Identity API. For eg:- While one IdP could use `user_id` for the user identifier, the same could be `subject` in another one. This requires different handling on the client side from one IdP to another.
|
||||
|
||||
A new standard called 'OpenID Connect' which builds on top of OAuth 2.0 brings new artifacts like ID tokens that can serve as reliable proof of authentication and also standardizes things like `scope` and `claims`.
|
||||
|
||||
## OpenID Connect (OIDC)
|
||||
|
||||
OpenID Connect 1.0 is a simple identity layer on top of the OAuth 2.0 protocol. It supports 3 flows of which Authorization code and implicit flow are similar to the ones defined in OAuth 2.0. The notable difference here is the return of an ID Token in JWT format (JSON Web Token). The claims in the ID Token help the client reliably confirm the identity of the user. The audience(`aud`) claim will be set to the client id which means the ID token is intended to be consumed by the client alone. Conforming to the OAuth 2.0 spec, an access token is still returned which can be used to obtain information about the user from the "userinfo" endpoint. OIDC also standardizes the claims in the ID Token as well as the "userinfo" response.
|
||||
|
||||
## Assembling the SSO puzzle
|
||||
|
||||
Now that we have all the pieces of the SSO puzzle, bringing it together in Jackson would look something like the one below.
|
||||
|
||||
![SSO Flow](/img/sso-flow.png)
|
||||
|
||||
Allow me to explain.
|
||||
|
||||
We need to support two kinds of SSO Identity Providers - SAML and OIDC. For the sake of discussion, consider the scenario of two apps where one (CRM) needs to log in with Azure AD via SAML and another (HRM) needs to log in with Google Workspace via OIDC.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Setup SSO Connection
|
||||
|
||||
The preliminary step (marked by the green arrow above) is to add the SSO Connection to Jackson. For SAML IdP, this would mean saving the XML metadata from the IdP. The metadata would contain the SSO URL to send the SAML request to plus the public key to verify the SAML assertion signature. In the case of OIDC IdP, we need the discovery URL and client credentials (clientID and clientSecret of the registered app). The discovery URL can be used to query metadata about IdP such as authorization and token endpoints while the client credentials will be used to authenticate the Jackson client orchestrating the OIDC flow.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Login flow
|
||||
|
||||
Jackson supports both OAuth 2.0 and OpenID flows. The OAuth 2.0 flow is made secure by supporting Authorization Code flow with PKCE. By including the scope `openid` in the client request Jackson will switch to OpenID flow.
|
||||
|
||||
The login process follows the below steps:
|
||||
|
||||
1. The Client (Browser app) initiates the login by redirecting to Jackson's `authorize` endpoint. Jackson will parse the tenant/product in the request and use it to redirect the user to the configured IdP.
|
||||
2. Step 2 varies based on the Identity Provider type. For SAML IdP, Jackson would construct the SAML request, sign it and send it to IdP. The IdP validates the request and authenticates the user. For OIDC IdP, Jackson constructs an OpenID Connect request and redirects the user to the OIDC Provider authorization endpoint.
|
||||
3. Once the user is logged in successfully, the IdP redirects back to Jackson. For SAML, the response contains the user profile. In the case of OIDC, the response contains the authorization code that is used by Jackson to obtain the token and user profile from the OIDC IdP. Jackson generates a short-lived `authorization code` and stores the user profile against it.
|
||||
4. The `authorization code` generated in the previous step is sent to the client app.
|
||||
5. The client exchanges the code for the token and uses it to query the userInfo endpoint of Jackson to get the complete user profile. In the case of OpenID flow, ID Token is returned by Jackson and contains the basic user profile.
|
||||
|
||||
## Final thoughts
|
||||
|
||||
So in a nutshell, Jackson acts as a proxy between the client app and the IdP doing the heavy lifting of orchestrating SAML/OIDC flows with the configured IdPs. This way you can quickly scale your app auth to any number of providers allowing you to focus on your core product.

|
||||
|
||||
## What is DevOps
|
||||
|
||||
Let's first take a look at what DevOps (Developer Operations) is so we can better understand why it has now evolved into DevSecOps (Developer Security Operations). DevOps is a combination of philosophies, practices, and tools that increases a business's ability to deliver better development in less time (Higher velocity). This can be applied to building a new product or the process of continuous improvement that applies to most products we see today.
|
||||
|
||||
If we look at the old way of development, typical teams worked on their own and would do their bit and then just pass it on to the next team to do theirs, a bit like an assembly line. This meant that development cycles were very long, communication between teams was limited, handover processes were not in place and if anything went wrong it would take a long time to identify and fix issues. If we compare that to today's agile development process we use DevOps to work in sprints and deliver results in a much faster and more efficient way. This has been made possible by not only the way we look at the development cycle but also by tools and automation.
|
||||
|
||||
DevOps has come a long way already and we have seen it evolve with the agile methodology of working but security, in particular, was always still the last step of the development process and not thought about as a necessity. In some cases when security was only looked at by a specific team at the end of the process.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why has security been integrated into DevOps
|
||||
|
||||
The rise in cybercrime and the sophistication of attacks has made security a crucial part of the development process and not just an afterthought. This has led to security being integrated into the development process at each stage and becoming a shared responsibility. It has also led to security being thought about and planned right from the start of each process rather than at the end. This has resulted in more development velocity, more layers of integrated security and higher collaboration around security as a major aspect of the development cycle.
|
||||
|
||||
The integration of security in the development cycle at each stage from start to finish while also automating some of the security steps is what has led to the evolution of DevOps becoming DevSecOps, a go-to practice today. One of the main reasons the term was adjusted to include security is to make each person in the process think about and take accountability for secure building practices.
|
||||
|
||||
## Benefits of DevSecOps
|
||||
|
||||
Lastly, let's take a quick look at the main benefits of having solid DevSecOps in place
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Security**
|
||||
|
||||
By thinking about and implementing security at each stage of the development process and particularly in the early stages organizations are proactively mitigating cyber threats. This combined with automated security testing means that dev teams can perform security checks and audits without slowing down development cycles.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Improved Collaboration**
|
||||
|
||||
DevSecOps pushes for development and security and operations teams to collaborate more and especially in the early stages of the process. This increases innovation and leads to better cross-team buy-in. It also makes sure that everyone is responsible for security.
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Streamlines process that limits vulnerabilities**
|
||||
|
||||
Having security in every stage of the development process limits the chance of finding vulnerabilities much later, vulnerabilities which could delay the release. The process of streamlining the process with automated security testing as part of the development process also ensures that possible vulnerabilities are caught at each stage.
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Cost**
|
||||
|
||||
Cost is also always a major benefit and by having a good DevSecOps process in place you will find bugs and issues much faster which will result in less time and cost required to fix them.

|

We have all heard the terms low-code or no-code being thrown around as buzzwords over the last few years but what does this mean and how is it changing the way businesses and individuals solve problems? I am going to use our product SAML Jackson to explain how low-code solutions are changing the way we build products.
|
||||
|
||||
Low-code solutions are essentially products that provide you with building blocks so instead of building a solution from scratch you can simply combine the relevant building blocks to make a relevant solution for your business. Let’s take BoxyHQ and our SAML Jackson product as an example. Without the low-code product (SAML Jackson) the alternative for businesses would be to build a custom SAML integration which takes months and a ton of resources. This sounds ridiculous tho right? With the number of businesses who are deploying SAML for their customer, there must be some reusable parts that can be shared to reduce the time it takes each business. This is where low-code products like SAML Jackson come in. By building the SAML integrations as a reusable component, businesses only need to create one simple connection to the SAML Jackson to deploy SAML.
|
||||
|
||||
Still with me? If not, don't worry. Essentially what low-code is taking advantage of is building in a way that can be shared so the amount of custom building is limited (or low) for common use cases.
|
||||
|
||||
## So what is the difference between low-code and no-code?
|
||||
|
||||
Well while a lot of people would still group them together, the obvious difference is that low-code still needs some code to integrate the building blocks, whereas no-code doesn't. If we look at a product like Zapier for example, that requires no code at all and a non-technical person can use visual blocks to connect different data sources and outputs to build workflows. An example of this is as a non-technical person I can take data from forms such as Hubspot forms that are submitted on our website and create notifications for the team on Slack. Doing all of this without code and just using Zapier is what makes this a no-code solution.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why is low-code so important?
|
||||
|
||||
Lastly, let's take a quick look at the main benefits of having solid DevSecOps in place
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Speed speed speed**
|
||||
|
||||
In today's world businesses need to be agile and fast. With competitors springing up every day and customer expectations high the last thing a business wants to do is to have to make specialist hires for each element of their build or spend precious time on auxiliary features that also have their learning curve. The birth of plug-and-play has meant that businesses can operate faster and more efficiently than ever before. Can you imagine if a business had to build all its tools from scratch? No neither can I.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Cost**
|
||||
|
||||
Cost is always a major element that businesses and individuals look at when finding a solution and in the case of low-code it comes down to the question of build V buy. For larger enterprises who have not fully adopted the trust and efficiency of low-code they might still choose to build their own solution which will cost them a lot more in resources and time but that might be something, they have spare. Smaller businesses who want to focus on their core offerings will always look for reliable plug-and-play solutions such as low-code which allow them to quickly deploy solutions and stay competitive while saving on the large number of resources needed to build from scratch.
|
||||
|
||||
![DevSecOps](/img/blog/lowcode-graph.png)
|
||||
|
||||
## Are there any negatives to using low-code and no-code platforms?
|
||||
|
||||
The only main negative of these solutions I have identified is that because of the ease and speed of the platforms it can create a lack of transparency and some shadow IT as lots of people in the organization can be building solutions and data can be moving around without accountability. However, with the right IT processes and policies in place, this can be easily fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why are we so excited about low-code and no-code?
|
||||
|
||||
We are very excited about low-code solutions because it drives innovation! We at BoxyHQ are building low-code solutions for enterprises to implement the important but standard features they need to be competitive and compliant with ease so they can focus on what they do best which is innovate. We have some great clients already and can’t wait to see what they do next without the hassle of building standard features such as SSO and Directory Sync.

1. **Compliance:** Many industries are subject to strict regulations that require organizations to maintain detailed records of their activities. Audit logs can be used to demonstrate compliance with these regulations, and to provide evidence in the event of an audit or investigation.
|
||||
|
||||
The retention period requirements of some well-known compliance frameworks are listed below:
|
||||
|
||||
- ISO 27001: 3 years
|
||||
- GDPR: Not very specific, as long as necessary
|
||||
- HIPAA: 6 years
|
||||
- PCI DSS: 1 year
|
||||
- NIST: 3 years
|
||||
- SOX: 7 years
|
||||
- GLBA: 6 years
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Cyber Insurance:** Obtaining cyber insurance usually comes with requirements around recording and retaining audit logs. These logs help with forensics during insurance claims, otherwise making investigation expensive and time-consuming for both insurers and the affected companies.
|
||||
3. **Security:** Audit logs can be used to detect and prevent security breaches. By monitoring for suspicious activity, such as repeated failed login attempts or changes to sensitive data, you can quickly identify and respond to potential threats. Additionally, audit logs can be used to reconstruct the events leading up to a security incident, which can help you identify the cause and prevent similar incidents in the future.
|
||||
4. **Accountability:** Audit logs make it possible to track the actions of individual users, which can be useful for identifying issues such as data breaches, compliance violations, and other problems. This information can be used to hold users accountable for their actions and to help you identify and address any issues that arise.
|
||||
5. **Troubleshooting:** Audit logs can be used to identify and diagnose issues that occur within your SaaS application. By reviewing the logs, you can see exactly what happened when a problem occurred, which can help you quickly identify the root cause and develop a solution.
|
||||
6. **Auditing:** Audit logs provide a record of the activities that occur within your SaaS application, which can be useful for internal audits. This information can be used to assess the effectiveness of your security controls and identify areas for improvement.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Audit logs are a powerful tool that can be used to improve the security, compliance, and overall performance of your SaaS application. By keeping detailed records of user activity, you can monitor for potential issues and quickly respond to problems as they arise. If your SaaS app doesn't have audit logs, you should consider implementing them as soon as possible to ensure the safety and security of your data and users. It is also becoming an important part of enterprise readiness.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
With the rise of open-source solutions and solution providers, one of the biggest questions asked is, how do businesses monetize while giving away the source code for free?
|
||||
|
||||
## What is an open-source company?
|
||||
|
||||
An open-source company is an organization that develops software but makes the source code freely available to the public. This means that others can copy the code and engine, deploy it themselves, develop it, fix bugs and more. This allows the software not only to be widely accessible for free but also to evolve in a very collaborative way.
|
||||
|
||||
## If everything is free then how can it be monetized?
|
||||
|
||||
We don't have to look very far to find examples of open-source companies that have become unicorns and continue to grow. Some great examples are Elastic ($608 million in revenue, 2021), HashiCorp ($320 million in revenue, 2021), and RedHat ($3.4 billion in revenue, 2021). All these companies operate an open-source business model but have huge revenues and valuations. This is what we are going to look at.
|
||||
|
||||
There are many different ways that open-source companies can monetize - ultimately this comes down to the goals of the business. We are going to explore a few of the options available but keep in mind that these are just some of the ways it can be done and open-source continues to develop and grow at a rapid pace.
|
||||
|
||||
### Donations
|
||||
|
||||
One of the most popular models is to offer the source code and documentation completely free and let its users donate at their discretion. This is normally done for smaller projects and donations can be solicited in various ways, such as a button on the website, a link in a newsletter, a Github donation, or one that I like - buymeacoffee.com. The latter allows you to embed an option into your website or interface and donate at the value of a coffee. Although donations are a great way to monetize some projects, this method is not feasible for bigger companies that have complex solutions and large overheads.
|
||||
|
||||
### Support
|
||||
|
||||
Paid Support or Premium Care, as it’s commonly termed, is a very common business model that has done very well for larger commercial companies. This model allows users to still access the code and deploy it for free but also enables an option for companies/users to pay for additional support. This monetized plan often includes perks such as help deploying the software, customization and ongoing support for general use. Just because the source code of a project is open, it doesn’t mean it's easy to deploy or manage. This is where companies such as Red Hat have been successful and use this particular model to great effect.
|
||||
|
||||
The benefits of this model are, as Red Hat has demonstrated, you can build a revenue-generating company that can be scaled effectively. The drawback is, some companies only make the open-source code available with a paid plan, which goes against the open-source ethos. To truly use this model effectively, companies should offer the source code for free regardless of an option for additional support.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### Licensing
|
||||
|
||||
Open-source companies can also license their open-source software, which applies rules to how their software can be used, edited, distributed and copied. Some open-source companies will allow individuals and smaller organizations to use their software for free while charging larger companies a fee to deploy it. Normally a license fee comes with additional benefits, such as support and training, etc. There are also two main types of licensing that open-source companies can utilize.
|
||||
|
||||
-Copyleft license
|
||||
This is a type of license in which, if code is copied and modified it still retains the original license terms
|
||||
|
||||
-Permissive license
|
||||
This grants licenses based on different needs and is much more diverse.
|
||||
|
||||
Licensing and open-source licensing is a huge topic in itself and Snyk has done a fantastic job at explaining this. You can read more about it here.
|
||||
|
||||
### Cloud-hosted Services
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, the last model we will look at is hosting. While open-source organizations can still offer their code for free, some may offer a hosted version which is much easier to set up and maintain. This means customers can effectively use their product like any other SaaS and they typically charge on a subscription basis.
|
||||
|
||||
The hosted model is very popular as it now allows quick deployment but also reduces the level of maintenance and custom work developers need to carry out. The main limitation of offering a hosted model is, it will require the open-source company to offer web hosting and everything that goes along with it. This can require an enormous amount of maintenance and development.
|
||||
|
||||
### The open-core model
|
||||
|
||||
The open core model is when a company releases the core software for anyone to use but then also controls things such as the roadmap and what commits are accepted into it. By doing this, the company can also charge for extra features which customers may want. Some examples could be functionality features or even security/compliance modules. This model has been very popular with open-source companies and is widely seen as a very fair way to operate. It is also very important to make sure that the open-core has enough value that developers will rally around the product from the get-go. Companies that offer very little value from the free version and charge for additional features, do not see great traction in the open-source community.
|
||||
|
||||
## Controversial opinion
|
||||
|
||||
I personally believe that OSS is not a business model but a development model. We are debating this internally, so we would love to hear your feedback and opinions on this subject.
|
||||
|
||||
## Summary
|
||||
|
||||
Although open-source code is widely free and available to use, it has become a popular choice for companies who also want to commercialize. The benefits of open-source are vast and with the variety of business models we discussed you can understand the various options to create a successful, revenue-generating business.

|

In this age of technology, software companies are quickly shifting towards a strict compliance posture. You may ask yourself, why is that and what has changed over the last several years? This can be due to multiple factors but can mainly be boiled down into four categories.
|
||||
|
||||
- Security
|
||||
- Product Development
|
||||
- Compliance
|
||||
- Supply Chain & Risk Management
|
||||
|
||||
## What is an SBOM or Software Bill of Materials?
|
||||
|
||||
You can think of your modern application as a cake you are baking. The list of ingredients you use to bake that cake would be the SBOM (Software Bill of Materials). In the case of software, it's open-source or private dependencies and third-party components. This list can be massive and can range from hundreds to thousands, especially when you factor in transitive dependencies (an indirect dependency of the component it relies on). This list gets very complex and is impossible to manage at scale at the enterprise level. Gone are the days when most enterprises or smaller-scale organizations would write applications from scratch. Rather, most applications are assembled using pre-built software packages, i.e open-source. Over the past decade, this has led to the rise and use of publicly available software components and agile development at an enormous rate.
|
||||
|
||||
## Security
|
||||
|
||||
More organizations now have security top-of-mind due to cyber attacks on business infrastructure becoming almost a daily occurrence. Companies are faced with major decisions that affect cost, efficiency, and productivity. There is an enormous risk and liability where a company’s code base lives in the cloud. This could be private or public but a good rule of thumb when you think about risk is not if we’re breached, but when. So precautions need to be taken to add layers of protection to software infrastructure.
|
||||
|
||||
An SBOM would provide better visibility to companies in identifying and tracking security vulnerabilities that could enable timely patches. Updates in code should prompt a newly generated report (SBOM).
|
||||
|
||||
We could go a lot deeper around all the various ways precautions could be taken like scanning your application for vulnerabilities or penetration testing. A [minimum viable secure product](https://mvsp.dev/) is of course recommended for all enterprise-ready organizations. It could be as simple as having [audit logs](https://boxyhq.com/audit-logs) in place to record and search events internally on your application.
|
||||
|
||||
## Product Development
|
||||
|
||||
SBOMs can improve and help software development processes by providing a comprehensive list of all open-source dependencies and components used in a product. From an organizational standpoint, it is crucial to ensure that all software and related components are up-to-date and licensed correctly. Having this clear understanding is key to risk mitigation when it comes to understanding what is in a product and how it is constructed.
|
||||
Therefore, development teams can quickly improve transparency, communication, and collaborative decision-making with a faster time-to-market while ensuring industry compliance standards and regulations.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
![matrix finger](/img/blog/matrix-finger.jpg)
|
||||
|
||||
## Compliance
|
||||
|
||||
In 2021 the US Government issued an [executive order](https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/2021/05/12/executive-order-on-improving-the-nations-cybersecurity/) mandating all software companies that do business with the US government must provide a detailed inventory list (software bill of materials or SBOM) of all components related to the software they have produced and sold to any federal agency. The legislation is geared towards transparency with a view to the enhancement of security for our supply chain infrastructure. This has quickly prompted other countries to consider similar legislation.
|
||||
|
||||
## Supply Chain & Risk Management
|
||||
|
||||
It’s vital to take a proactive approach and have a top-down understanding of all software components that live in a software ecosystem. With that in mind, SBOMs are quickly becoming a standard for software supply chain risk management. With the expansion of sophisticated attacks, it’s more important than ever to take a systematic approach when it comes to the security of your organization.
|
||||
|
||||
The ecosystem is growing with tools that help you verify, scan and monitor all your components and manifest files.
|
||||
|
||||
If you have an open-source product to sell to enterprises or the public sector, you will need to anticipate compliance and build an SBOM into your product. Especially if you are targeting entities in heavily regulated industries. Taking this into consideration, that’s what we did at BoxyHQ for each of our four products with guides that will help you navigate these decisions (Enterprise Single Sign On, Directory Sync, Audit Logs, and Data Privacy Vault). We chose to build [Cosign](https://www.sigstore.dev/) right into our tool - but many more are available. Here is a [curated list of SBOM-related tools.](https://github.com/awesomeSBOM/awesome-sbom)
|
||||
|
||||

Unless you have been living under a rock, you have probably heard of the SSO Wall of Shame. This is a list of vendors that treat single sign-on as a luxury feature, not a core security requirement. There have been numerous complaints regarding the companies that have made it onto this list, and rightfully so. In a downturn economy and in times when security and privacy are critical, many organizations see an opportunity to generate even more revenue.
|
||||
|
||||
This is a small example, listed in alphabetical order of some of the most well-known companies that have ended up on the “Wall of Shame” (see the screenshot below). You can find more information and the full list at [sso.tax](https://sso.tax). It is clear that raising prices for enterprise SSO and other security features, such as Audit Logs (to track critical events), is just part of their revenue model.
|
||||
|
||||
![sso tax list](/img/blog/sso-tax-list.png)
|
||||
|
||||
But is this the right thing to do? It’s hard to judge from the outside, and clearly companies need to make a profit while showing growth, especially when you are backed by Venture Capital. Having said that, at BoxyHQ we believe that we can all do better (we are also Venture funded). Nonetheless, cybersecurity taxes should stop, and we should all focus on increasing our security posture and making a positive impact. Take for example, Hubspot charging 6300% more for SSO functionality! That is a clear example of how absurd and abusive some companies can be.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, we ask ourselves, how about the “Wall of Fame”? This is a separate list of companies that lead by example and don’t take advantage of their customer base. If you do a quick search, you will find some interesting companies listed. Grafana, Cal.com, and Sumo Logic, just to name a few.
|
||||
|
||||
To understand why startups normally lean this way, it’s important to consider the enterprise deal process. With RFPs, security questionnaires, and other compliance-related procedures, closing an enterprise deal becomes all-consuming for a startup. This can justify an enterprise pricing tier. Given a startups early evolution of products, , Enterprise SSO becomes an easy candidate to distinguish the pricing tier gap between charging SMBs and what they can charge enterprises. But building and maintaining SSO is expensive and time-consuming. SAML is not necessarily the easiest protocol implementation to get right. And add to this the customer support issues that come with onboarding large enterprise teams onto the product. But as a startup matures the product needs to have enough core enterprise features and not merely depend on undifferentiated features like SSO.
|
||||
|
||||
To take it full circle, it would be nice to see a full list of the SSO Wall of Fame. Then we could ensure support for the companies with integrity, who have clearly not been overtaken by greed. Unfortunately because of our bandwidth, we can not commit to full ownership of this initiative, but can offer some practical advice on how companies could start offering SSO pricing tiers for free or at a nominal price increase:
|
||||
|
||||
- Charge for other core enterprise features instead of SSO. If your product is not quite to that level of maturity, please read on.
|
||||
- Instead of charging for SSO, charge for the security process’s that comes with enterprise deals. If a company wants you to go through its security and compliance process, rather pay a premium to enhance its security posture and reduce compliance risk from its vendors.
|
||||
- If that scenario isn’t possible then consider segmenting SSO pricing based on the number of users or seats. SMBs will not have a very large number of seats so this could be a possible way to separate your pricing.
|
||||
- If your Enterprise tier is not based on seats, a natural progression is to base pricing on usage.
|
||||
|
||||
We are trying to do our part by providing a free open–source enterprise-grade SSO (called SAML Jackson), that any developer, team, or organization can plug into with just a few lines of code. Check out the GitHub repo [here](https://github.com/boxyhq/jackson). Feedback is much appreciated and a star will help us raise security awareness. 🙂
|
||||
|
||||
Stay safe, do good, and avoid the dark side of the SSO tax!

Building your enterprise applications on Bubble is now easier than ever with BoxyHQ, a single API to connect to enterprise Single Sign-On (SSO), and multiple security compliance features.
|
||||
|
||||
## What is Bubble.io?
|
||||
|
||||
Bubble is a visual drag-and-drop programming language. Instead of scripting code, users can leverage a visual interface to build applications - simple or complex. This makes building apps accessible to people (or teams) with a big idea - but no programming skills.
|
||||
|
||||
## What is a Bubble.io Plugin?
|
||||
|
||||
Plugins are third-party Bubble.io components that are not part of the Bubble core platform functionality. They can be freely provided by the creators or available as a paid plugin.
|
||||
|
||||
## Bubble Makes It Simple
|
||||
|
||||
One of the benefits of using a no-code platform like Bubble is that not only can you build an application quickly, but you also have the ability to architect complex features. If we look back just a few years, this was not possible. You would have 2 options:
|
||||
|
||||
- Hire a developer or development team
|
||||
- Delegate to a developer or team
|
||||
|
||||
But we live in an era where technology is continually evolving and individuals' or teams' creativity has no limits. We can put ourselves in the shoes of someone who doesn’t write code but wants to build a professional application - with Bubble.io this is now a possibility.
|
||||
|
||||
## Top 3 reasons small businesses or enterprises should switch to a no-code platform
|
||||
|
||||
_This comes with a caveat that [Bubble does have a learning curve](https://coachingnocodeapps.com/how-long-does-it-take-to-learn-bubble-and-how-much-does-it-cost) but once you get familiar with the platform it’s much easier to build applications._
|
||||
|
||||
## 1. Using a no-code solution like Bubble saves money on IT:
|
||||
|
||||
Typical app development workflow costs for SMBs (small to medium businesses) from design to implementation can range from $75,000 to $750,000. This can be crippling for startups which opens up a no-code solution as a better alternative. If we are talking about enterprise development, this number can reach up to millions.
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. Time to value:
|
||||
|
||||
This depends on what type of app you want to build. Some estimations are up to [80% in development time saved](https://medium.com/swlh/could-i-build-my-product-on-bubble-io-75923a41b9b6). Let’s take into consideration there is no need to set time-consuming tasks for a developer such as basic features and environment setup. This is all taken care of for you when building in Bubble’s platform.
|
||||
|
||||
## 3. Built-in SEO:
|
||||
|
||||
Whether you are a startup or an enterprise team, but inexperienced in the art of Search Engine Optimization (SEO), not to worry, Bubble has built-in [SEO tools](https://manual.bubble.io/help-guides/customizing-an-application/seo#bubbles-seo-tools) that allow you to the ability to modify and customize how your application is seen by search engine crawlers. This would be in the advanced settings and great care should be taken when enabling or modifying these settings because, by default, your application will not be indexed.
|
||||
|
||||
This brings a lot of value when you don’t necessarily need a professional marketing division to start with. Right out of the gate, you can build an application that has professional capabilities to successfully reach your target persona.
|
||||
|
||||
## Can I add enterprise features on Bubble?
|
||||
|
||||
One of the foundational needs of any new business app is the ability for users to securely log in to password-protected areas - like a shopping cart or protected content. If we look at enterprise features like SAML SSO for instance, you may think this is a feature that is out of reach for a no-code platform, but you can simply search within the Bubble marketplace and a list of plugin creators has made this possible. Instantly you get a short list of plugins available for the functionality you would like to implement.
|
||||
|
||||
![BoxyHQ plugin](/img/blog/bubble-plugin.png)
|
||||
|
||||
BoxyHQ is one of those creators. By simply installing the plugin into your Bubble.io app, you can be up and running with little configuration effort. We have written a step-by-step [guide](https://boxyhq.com/guides/jackson/integrations/bubble) to help you properly configure setting up SAML single sign-on for your small to medium business (SMB) or enterprise application.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you have BoxyHQ’s plugin properly configured, you now have an application that will handle secure login access to your users using SAML single sign-on that will connect to any IdP (Identity Provider) like Okta, OneLogin, Azure AD, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
This is when you can breathe a sigh of relief because there is now no need to remember usernames and passwords. BoxyHQ’s plugin easily provides that solution for you. If you would like to test a [demo application](https://boxyhq-saml-sso.bubbleapps.io/version-test) click here to see the flow and enjoy the seamless experience you will have inside the Bubble platform.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are interested in understanding what’s happening on the backend, we have a [guide](https://boxyhq.com/blog/understanding-saml-sso-the-basics-from-the-user-side) available that will walk you through the technical aspects of single sign-on.
|
||||
|
||||
SSO can be complicated but BoxyHQ makes it simple to understand.

# Bot开发
|
||||
|
||||
Bot开发是开发者进行bot注册的重要模块。
|
||||
|
||||
在个人“设置”中,用户可以看到目前已经注册的bot列表,点击对应bot的“编辑”按钮可以对已注册的bot进行配置;点击“Bot注册”按钮开始注册新的bot。
|
||||
|
||||
![botcreate1](../../static/img/bot/botcreate1.png)
|
||||
|
||||
在注册页中,开发者需要填写bot注册的相关信息,包括bot的名称、Webhook 地址,详细介绍等,系统将对开发者输入的信息进行合法性校验,确保bot各项信息的完整性和有效性。此外,系统将自动生成bot的唯一标识,同时调用 GitLink 平台的相关接口生成bot的身份凭证信息,包括客户端密钥和私钥等。
|
||||
|
||||
开发者需通过这些身份信息结合平台接口进行bot身份认证后,调用相关接口完成bot的相关功能。
|
||||
|
||||

# Bot配置
|
||||
|
||||
Bot配置是开发者进行bot维护和配置的重要模块,主要包括bot基本信息维护、权限&订阅事件管理、高级选项配置等功能。
|
||||
|
||||
Bot的基本信息维护中,开发者可以看到bot的各项基本信息,并可以根据需要对bot的头像,名称,Webhook地址等进行修改。
|
||||
|
||||
![botconfig1](../../static/img/bot/botconfig1.png)
|
||||
|
||||
Bot的权限&订阅事件管理中,开发者可根据对仓库资源的访问需要为bot分配不同的权限和等级,比如增加代码库权限,将拉取请求的写权限变为读权限等。开发者还能更改当前bot订阅的事件列表,比如订阅代码库推送,取消拉取请求分配订阅等,以实现bot功能的更新与升级。
|
||||
|
||||
![botconfig2](../../static/img/bot/botconfig2.png)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Bot高级选项配置中,开发者可以改变bot的公私有状态,从而影响到bot的使用范围。需要注意的是,公开状态下的bot在已有其他仓库安装的情况下不能变成私有。开发者可选择将bot上架到市场,需要填写上架信息,包括市场简介,主要功能,次要功能等各项信息。
|
||||
|
||||
开发者还能进行bot的删除和转让操作,发起转让意味着更改bot的所有权,需要输入接受者的用户名。在接受者确定接受后,即可完成bot的所有权变更,拒绝则会取消本次的转让操作。

# Admin Portal
|
||||
|
||||
Retraced can be accessed using Admin interface that allows you to manage Projects & Environments via UI. To enable the Admin Portal, make sure you deploy [Retraced with Docker Compose](../retraced/self-host/docker.md)
|
||||
|
||||
You can open the Admin Portal on port `5225`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Sign into Admin Portal
|
||||
|
||||
We use [Magic Links](https://next-auth.js.org/providers/email) to authenticate users to the UI.
|
||||
|
||||
You'll need to set the following configuration in the [environment](../jackson/deploy/env-variables.md#admin-ui-configuration):
|
||||
|
||||
1. SMTP Server details, so we can send you the email with the magic link.
|
||||
2. Access Control List which is an array of emails or glob patterns. Only these users will be allowed access to the Admin Portal. Example: `tonystark@gmail.com,*@marvel.com`.
|
||||
|
||||
Follow the below steps to login into the Admin dashboard.
|
||||
|
||||
- Visit the path `/api/auth/signin` on your app. The page will display a sign-in page with a text box to enter the email address.
|
||||
- Enter the email address that matches the `NEXTAUTH_ACL` and click the button **Sign in with Email**.
|
||||

# Manage SSO Connections
|
||||
|
||||
On the Admin Portal **Enterprise SSO** menu, you can see the SSO Connections details.
|
||||
|
||||
## Add SAML Connections
|
||||
|
||||
Once you've set up the SAML app on your Identity Provider, the Identity Provider will generate a SAML Metadata file.
|
||||
|
||||
The SAML metadata file contains information about the various SAML Authorities that can be used in SAML 2.0 protocol message exchanges.
|
||||
|
||||
Download the SAML Metadata file from your IdP and follow the below steps for adding the SAML connection.
|
||||
|
||||
- Click the button **New Connection**.
|
||||
- Choose **SAML** as the type.
|
||||
- Give your new connection a **name**.
|
||||
- Add your **Tenant** (Eg: boxyhq.com) and **Product** (Eg: flex).
|
||||
- Add **Allowed redirect URLs**.
|
||||
- Add **Default redirect URL**.
|
||||
- Paste the **Raw IdP XML**.
|
||||
- If **ForceAuthn** is checked, it means that the user will be forced to re-authenticate at SAML IdP, even if they have an active session.
|
||||
- Click the button **Save Changes**.
|
||||
|
||||
Now you've successfully added your first SAML connection.
|
||||
|
||||
## Add OIDC Connections
|
||||
|
||||
Once you've registered the OIDC app on your Identity Provider, the Identity Provider will generate a clientId and clientSecret.
|
||||
|
||||
The `clientSecret` will be used to authenticate the oidc client (in this case jackson) and obtain the `access_token`.
|
||||
|
||||
Also get the OpenID provider [discovery](https://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-discovery-1_0.html#ProviderConfig) endpoint (usually ending in `/.well-known/openid-configuration`) and follow the below steps for adding the OIDC connection.
|
||||
|
||||
- Click the button **New Connection**.
|
||||
- Choose **OIDC** as the type.
|
||||
- Give your new connection a **name**.
|
||||
- Add your **Tenant** (Eg: boxyhq.com) and **Product** (Eg: flex).
|
||||
- Add **Allowed redirect URLs**.
|
||||
- Add **Default redirect URL**.
|
||||
- Enter the URL for OpenID Provider discovery which exposes the Provider Metadata.
|
||||
- Paste the **clientId** and **clientSecret** values into Client ID [OIDC Provider]/Client Secret [OIDC Provider] fields in the UI.
|
||||
- Click the button **Save Changes**.
|
||||
|
||||
Now you've successfully added your first OIDC connection.
|
||||
|
||||
## SAML Federation

||||
|
||||
SAML Federation is an enterprise feature and you need to have an enterprise license to use this feature.
|
||||

# Get Started with Admin Portal
|
||||
|
||||
SAML Jackson comes with an Admin Portal that allows you to manage **Enterprise SSO**, **Directory Sync**, **Setup Links**, and **Audit Logs** products via an easy to use web interface.
|
||||
|
||||
Our future products (where relevant) will also be available in the Admin Portal.
|
||||
|
||||
To enable the Admin Portal, make sure you deploy [Jackson as a service](../jackson/deploy/service).
|
||||
|
||||
## Authentication Methods
|
||||
|
||||
BoxyHQ SAML Jackson supports multiple authentication methods. You can choose to use any of the following methods to authenticate users to the Admin Portal.
|
||||
|
||||
We use [NextAuth](https://next-auth.js.org) to handle authentication. Set the following environment variables to configure the authentication.
|
||||
|
||||
- `NEXTAUTH_URL`: The URL of your app.
|
||||
- `NEXTAUTH_SECRET`: A secret used to encrypt the session cookie. You can generate one using `openssl rand -base64 32`
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Magic Links
|
||||
|
||||
With Magic Links, you can sign in to the Admin Portal without having to enter a password. The app will send you an email with a link to sign in. You'll need **SMTP server credentials** to send emails.
|
||||
|
||||
Configure the following environment variables to enable Magic Links.
|
||||
|
||||
- `SMTP_HOST`: SMTP server host
|
||||
- `SMTP_PORT`: SMTP server port
|
||||
- `SMTP_USER`: SMTP server username
|
||||
- `SMTP_PASSWORD`: SMTP server password
|
||||
- `SMTP_FROM`: From email address to use when sending Magic Link emails
|
||||
- `NEXTAUTH_ACL`: An array of emails or glob patterns. Only these users will be allowed access to the Admin Portal. For example: `NEXTAUTH_ACL=tonystark@gmail.com,*@marvel.com`
|
||||
|
||||
Follow the below steps to login into the Admin Portal.
|
||||
|
||||
- Visit the path `/api/auth/signin` on your app.
|
||||
- Enter the email address that matches the `NEXTAUTH_ACL` and click the button **Send Magic Link**.
|
||||
- Open the inbox and you'll see an email from SAML Jackson.
|
||||
- Open that email and click the button **Sign in**.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Email and Password
|
||||
|
||||
With Email and Password, you can sign in to the Admin Portal using an email address and password. You can use it as an alternative to Magic Links or SAML Single Sign-On. This is the easiest way to get started with the Admin Portal.
|
||||
|
||||
Configure the environment variable to enable Email and Password authentication.
|
||||
|
||||
- `NEXTAUTH_ADMIN_CREDENTIALS`: A comma separated list of email and password pairs. For example: `david@acme.com:secretpassword,john@acme.com:anotherpassword`
|
||||
|
||||
At the moment, set the password as plain text. We'll add support for encrypted passwords soon.
|
||||
|
||||
Follow the below steps to login into the Admin Portal.
|
||||
|
||||
- Visit the path `/api/auth/signin` on your app.
|
||||
- Enter the email address and password that matches the `NEXTAUTH_ADMIN_CREDENTIALS` and click the button **Sign In**.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. SAML/OIDC Single Sign-On
|
||||
|
||||
With SAML/OIDC Single Sign-On, you can sign in to the Admin Portal using your Identity Provider. The app will redirect you to your Identity Provider to sign in. Once you've signed in, you'll be redirected back to the Admin Portal.
|
||||
|
||||
Configure the following environment variables to enable SAML/OIDC Single Sign-On.
|
||||
|
||||
- `ADMIN_PORTAL_SSO_TENANT`: This will be used as the tenant for the SSO connections. Set this to a value that is less likely to conflict with the main Enterprise SSO connections.
|
||||
- `ADMIN_PORTAL_SSO_PRODUCT`: This will be used as the product for the SSO connections. Set this to a value that is less likely to conflict with the main Enterprise SSO connections.
|
||||
|
||||
If not set, the default values will be used which are `_jackson_boxyhq` and `_jackson_admin_portal`.
|
||||
|
||||
To enable SAML/OIDC Single Sign-On, you'll need to access the Admin Portal using either [Magic Links](#1-magic-links) or [Email and Password](#2-email-and-password). Once you've logged in, you can configure SAML/OIDC Single Sign-On from the Admin Portal.
|
||||
|
||||
Go to **Settings** > **SSO for Admin Portal** and add a new SSO connection. We support both SAML and OIDC protocols.
|
||||
|
||||
Follow the below steps to login into the Admin Portal.
|
||||
|
||||
- Visit the path `/api/auth/signin` on your app.
|
||||
- Click the button **Login with SSO**.
|
||||
- You'll be redirected to your SAML Identity Provider to sign in for the authentication and then redirected back to the Admin Portal.

### Handle the Requests from Identity Providers
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure your application can handle the requests from Identity Providers.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Routes
|
||||
|
||||
Typically, you will want to add the following routes to your application to handle the requests. However, the `Methods` can vary for some Identity Providers.
|
||||
|
||||
| Route | Methods | Event |
|
||||
| ----------- | ---------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| /Users | POST | A new user has been assigned to a SCIM app |
|
||||
| /Users/:id | PUT, PATCH | A user information has been updated |
|
||||
| /Users/:id | DELETE | A user has been removed from a SCIM app |
|
||||
| /Groups | POST | A new group has been pushed |
|
||||
| /Groups/:id | PUT | Group name has been changed |
|
||||
| /Groups/:id | PATCH | User has been added to or removed from a group |
|
||||
| /Groups/:id | DELETE | Group has been removed |
|
||||
|
||||
#### User Requests
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript showLineNumbers
|
||||
const { data, status } = await directorySyncController.requests.handle(request);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The shape of the `request` should be as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
{
|
||||
method: HTTPMethod;
|
||||
body?: any;
|
||||
directoryId: string;
|
||||
resourceId: string;
|
||||
resourceType: "users",
|
||||
apiSecret: string;
|
||||
query: {
|
||||
count?: number;
|
||||
startIndex?: number;
|
||||
filter?: string;
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Group Requests
|
||||
|
||||
Handling the group requests is similar to handling the user requests.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript showLineNumbers
|
||||
const { data, status } = await directorySyncController.requests.handle(request);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The shape of the `request` should be as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
{
|
||||
method: HTTPMethod;
|
||||
body?: any;
|
||||
directoryId: string;
|
||||
resourceId: string;
|
||||
resourceType: "groups",
|
||||
apiSecret: string;
|
||||
query: {
|
||||
count?: number;
|
||||
startIndex?: number;
|
||||
filter?: string;
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Callback Function
|
||||
|
||||
You can optionally pass a callback function as a second parameter to the handle method `requests.handle`. Jackson will invoke the callback with the event object as the first argument after handling the request. You can use the event object to determine the action to take.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript showLineNumbers
|
||||
const callback = (event: DirectorySyncEvent) => {
|
||||
console.log(event);
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
const { data, status } = await directorySyncController.requests.handle(
|
||||
request,
|
||||
callback
|
||||
);
|
||||
```

# Events
|
||||
|
||||
SAML Jackson uses webhooks to notify your application any time changes are made to directory, users, groups, and memberships.

## Frequently Asked Questions
|
||||
|
||||
### How to determine whether a user has been deleted if the Identity Provider does not send a webhook event for user deletion?
|
||||
|
||||
To receive notifications when a user is deleted, it's important to note that not all Identity Providers send requests for this. However, you can listen for the `user.updated` event from SAML Jackson and examine the `active` property to determine whether a user has been deleted. In case the user is deleted, the `active` property will be assigned the value `false`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Which Identity Providers do not send an event for user deletion?
|
||||
|
||||
Following Identity Providers do not send `user.deleted` event:
|
||||
|
||||
- Okta
|
||||
- Azure AD
|
||||
|
||||
### Which SCIM version does SAML Jackson support?
|
||||
|
||||
At the moment, SAML Jackson supports SCIM version 2.0.

There are two ways to integrate the Directory Sync within your application.
|
||||
|
||||
## As a service
|
||||
|
||||
The advantage of running a separate service is that you get all of our UI tooling (like the Admin Portal) with the service. The disadvantage is that you have to manage the operations of a separate service.
|
||||
|
||||
**If you are not using Node.js then this is the only option available to you.**
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Jackson use webhooks to notify your application any time changes are made to directory users and groups. You can use webhooks to trigger actions in your application, such as creating a new user in your application, or updating a user in your application based on the changes made in the directory.
|
||||
|
||||
## As an NPM library
|
||||
|
||||
This is available if you are already developing your application using Node.js.
|
||||
|
||||
The advantage of embedding Jackson as an NPM library is that you do not have to manage operations of a separate service.
|
||||
The disadvantage is that you do not readily get our UI tooling (like the Admin Portal) with this method.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npm i --save @boxyhq/saml-jackson
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
See the [API Reference](/docs/directory-sync/api-reference) to understand more about the available methods.

# Directory Sync
|
||||
|
||||
Directory sync helps organizations automate the provisioning and de-provisioning of their users. It is based on the System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) protocol.
|
||||
|
||||
As a result, it streamlines the user lifecycle management process by saving valuable organizational hours, creating a single truth source of the user identity data, and facilitating them to keep the data secure.
|
||||
|
||||
Directory Sync is part of our SAML Jackson service (and npm library) from v1.2.1 onwards. Follow the instructions in [SAML Jackson](../jackson/deploy/index.md) for details on deployment. Or check out our [GitHub repo](https://github.com/boxyhq/jackson#directory-sync).
|
||||
|
||||
We currently only support SCIM 2.0 protocol because SCIM 1.1 is deprecated and support will be discontinued on December 2nd, 2022. If you still need support for SCIM 1.1 and are unable to move away from it then please contact us.

# Webhooks
|
||||
|
||||
A webhook is an HTTP request, triggered by an event in a source system and sent to a destination system (Eg: your app), often with a payload of data.
|
||||
|
||||
SAML Jackson use webhooks to notify your application any time changes are made to directory users and groups. You can use webhooks to trigger actions in your application, such as creating a new user in your application, or updating a user in your application based on the changes made in the directory.
|
||||
|
||||
## Configure Webhooks
|
||||
|
||||
SAML Jackson allows you to configure a webhook and secret while creating a directory sync connection either in the Admin Portal or the API. You can change the webhook and secret at any time.
|
||||
|
||||
- [Admin Portal](../admin-portal/directory-sync)
|
||||
- [API Reference](api-reference#create-a-new-directory)
|
||||
|
||||
## Receive Events
|
||||
|
||||
SAML Jackson will make a POST request to your webhook endpoint when a change is made to a directory user or group. Your webhook endpoint should be able to receive the webhook request and respond with a 200 status code.
|
||||
|
||||
You can start receiving events in your app using the below steps:
|
||||
|
||||
- Create a webhook endpoint as an HTTP endpoint (URL) on your server.
|
||||
- Create a directory sync connection and configure a webhook endpoint.
|
||||
- Configure the SCIM app on your Identity Provider.
|
||||
- Handle the webhook request and respond with a 200 status code.
|
||||
|
||||
To see the full list of events, please see the [Events and Types](events) page.
|
||||
|
||||
Here is a sample webhook request look like:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
POST /your-webhook-endpoint
|
||||
Content-Type: application/json
|
||||
BoxyHQ-Signature: t=xxx,s=xxxx
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
"directory_id": "58b5cd9dfaa39d47eb8f5f88631f9a629a232016",
|
||||
"event": "user.created",
|
||||
"tenant": "boxyhq",
|
||||
"product": "jackson",
|
||||
"data": {
|
||||
"id": "038e767b-9bc6-4dbd-975e-fbc38a8e7d82",
|
||||
"first_name": "Deepak",
|
||||
"last_name": "Prabhakara",
|
||||
"email": "deepak@boxyhq.com",
|
||||
"active": true,
|
||||
"raw": {...}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::caution
|
||||
If the webhook request fails, SAML Jackson will not retry the webhook request. A log will be created in the SAML Jackson Admin Portal if the you've enabled the webhook event logging.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Secure Webhooks
|
||||
|
||||
Use the webhook signature (**BoxyHQ-Signature**) to verify the webhook request is from SAML Jackson. The signature is generated using the **webhook secret** you configured in the directory sync connection.
|
||||
|
||||
Signature contains comma separated values of the following:
|
||||
|
||||
- **t** The timestamp of the webhook request.
|
||||
- **s** The signature of the webhook request.
|
||||
|
||||
An example of the webhook signature is below:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
BoxyHQ-Signature: t=1545010989801,s=xxxx
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Verify Webhooks Signature
|
||||
|
||||
You can verify the webhook signature by using the following steps:
|
||||
|
||||
- Extract the **t** and **s** values from the webhook signature.
|
||||
- Create the signed payload string by concatenating:
|
||||
- The timestamp (t)
|
||||
- The character `.`
|
||||
- The actual JSON payload
|
||||
- Compute the `HMAC-SHA256` hash of the signed payload string using your webhook secret.
|
||||
- Compare the signature in the request header with the computed signature.
|
||||
|
||||
Once the signature is verified, you can use the webhook payload to perform any action in your application.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript showLineNumbers
|

# Container Signing and Verification
|
||||
|
||||
Jackson container images are signed and can be verified using [cosign](https://github.com/sigstore/cosign).
|
||||
|
||||
## Fetching our public key
|
||||
|
||||
You can use [oras](https://oras.land/docs/category/cli) (or a similar OCI artifacts tool) to fetch our public key or download it from our website [here](https://boxyhq.com/.well-known/cosign.pub).
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
oras pull ghcr.io/boxyhq/cosign.pub:latest
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Container verification
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** This is supported for all versions >=1.6.0
|
||||
|
||||
Our container images are hosted on [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/boxyhq/jackson/tags). You can verify it by using the following command.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cosign verify --key cosign.pub boxyhq/jackson:<version>
|
||||
```

title: Environment Variables (Enterprise SSO)
|
||||
sidebar_label: Environment Variables
|
||||
description: Environment Variables for Enterprise SSO
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# Environment Variables
|
||||
|
||||
The env vars are only applicable to the Jackson service. If you are using the npm library then look for the options below when initializing the library.
|
||||
|
||||
## General configuration
|
||||
|
||||
### **HOST_URL**
|
||||
|
||||
The URL to bind to.
|
||||
Default: `localhost`
|
||||
|
||||
### **PORT**
|
||||
|
||||
The port to bind to.
|
||||
Default: `5225`
|
||||
|
||||
### **EXTERNAL_URL**
|
||||
|
||||
The public URL to reach this service. This is used internally to construct the callback url at which the SAML/OIDC IdP sends back the authorization response.
|
||||
|
||||
Default: `http://{HOST_URL}:{PORT}`
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `externalUrl`
|
||||
|
||||
### **JACKSON_API_KEYS**
|
||||
|
||||
A comma separated list of API keys that will be validated when serving the API requests for SSO connection (`/api/v1/connections`) and Directory Sync (`/api/v1/directory-sync`).
|
||||
|
||||
For example `JACKSON_API_KEYS=key1,key2,key3`
|
||||
|
||||
The API requests will then need to specify an `Authorization` header which contains one of the API keys above in this format: `Api-Key key1`
|
||||
|
||||
### **SAML_AUDIENCE**
|
||||
|
||||
The value of this setting (same as SP EntityID of Jackson) allows the Jackson instance to verify that it is the intended recipient of a SAML response. The same value is also set in the SAML App created on the IdP end by your customers. Once set do not change this value unless you get your customers to reconfigure their SAML App again. It is case-sensitive. This does not have to be a real URL.
|
||||
|
||||
Default: `https://saml.boxyhq.com`
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `samlAudience`
|
||||
|
||||
### **samlPath**
|
||||
|
||||
> **_NOTE:_** This is only applicable to our npm library.
|
||||
|
||||
The ACS path at which the [saml response](./npm-library#handle-saml-response) is sent back from the SAML IdP. Set this when using the npm package.
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `samlPath`
|
||||
|
||||
For example: `/api/oauth/saml`
|
||||
|
||||
### **oidcPath**
|
||||
|
||||
> **_NOTE:_** This is only applicable to our npm library.
|
||||
|
||||
The `redirect_uri` at which the Authorization response is sent back from the OpenID Connect IdP. Set this when using the npm package.
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `oidcPath`
|
||||
|
||||
For example: `/api/oauth/oidc`
|
||||
|
||||
### **IDP_DISCOVERY_PATH**
|
||||
|
||||
This is the path for showing the IdP Selection screen in case there are multiple SSO Connections for the same `tenant` and `product`.
|
||||
This path is also used to show the App Selection screen in the case of IdP-initiated SAML login (Different apps using the same SAML IdP).
|
||||
Set this when using the npm package.
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `idpDiscoveryPath`
|
||||
|
||||
For example: `/idp/select` - You can find an implementation of IdP/App Selection at https://github.com/boxyhq/jackson/blob/main/pages/idp/select.tsx.
|
||||
|
||||
### **CLIENT_SECRET_VERIFIER**
|
||||
|
||||
When `tenant` and `product` are used for the SAML flow (and PKCE is not being used) then we use `dummy` as placeholders for `client_id` and `client_secret`. This is not a security issue because SAML is tenanted and hence your Identity Provider will block access to anyone trying to log into your SAML tenant. However for additional security you should set `CLIENT_SECRET_VERIFIER` to a random secret and use that value as the `client_secret` during the OAuth 2.0 flow.
|
||||
|
||||
Default: `dummy`
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `clientSecretVerifier`
|
||||
|
||||
### **IDP_ENABLED**
|
||||
|
||||
Set to true to enable IdP initiated login for SAML. SP initiated login is the only recommended flow but you might have to support IdP login at times.
|
||||
|
||||
Default: `false`
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `idpEnabled`
|
||||
|
||||
### **PUBLIC_KEY**
|
||||
|
||||
This is the public key of the private key used to sign the SAML requests. Jackson expects the public key to be base64 encoded.
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `certs.publicKey`
|
||||
|
||||
### **PRIVATE_KEY**
|
||||
|
||||
This is the private key used to sign the SAML requests. Jackson expects the private key to be base64 encoded.
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `certs.privateKey`
|
||||
|
||||
To generate a private key and public key pair you can use the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout key.pem -out public.crt -sha256 -days 365 -nodes
|
||||
|
||||
# Convert the public key to base64
|
||||
cat public.crt | base64
|
||||
|
||||
# Convert the private key to base64
|
||||
cat key.pem | base64
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## OpenID configuration
|
||||
|
||||
For supporting OpenID flow, we need to set the algorithm and keys used to sign the ID token JWT.
|
||||
|
||||
### **OPENID_JWS_ALG**
|
||||
|
||||
The algorithm used to sign the id_token. Jackson uses [jose](https://github.com/panva/jose) to create the ID token. Supported algorithms can be found at https://github.com/panva/jose/issues/114#digital-signatures.
|
||||
|
||||
Default: `RS256`
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `openid.jwsAlg`
|
||||
|
||||
### **OPENID_RSA_PRIVATE_KEY**
|
||||
|
||||
Base64 value of private key.
|
||||
To generate one:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
openssl genrsa -out private-key.pem 3072
|
||||
openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -inform PEM -outform PEM -nocrypt -in private-key.pem -out private_key.pem
|
||||
cat private_key.pem | base64
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `openid.jwtSigningKeys.private`
|
||||
|
||||
### **OPENID_RSA_PUBLIC_KEY**
|
||||
|
||||
Base64 value of public key.
|
||||
You can generate the public key from the private key as shown below:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
openssl rsa -in private_key.pem -pubout -out public_key.pem
|
||||
cat public_key.pem | base64
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `openid.jwtSigningKeys.public`
|
||||
|
||||
## Database configuration
|
||||
|
||||
### **DB_ENGINE**
|
||||
|
||||
Supported values are `redis`, `sql`, `mongo`, `mem`, `planetscale`, `dynamodb`
|
||||
|
||||
Default: `sql`
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `db.engine`
|
||||
|
||||
> **_NOTE:_** If you are using DynamoDB then you also need to set `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`. For additional options like region and capacity units check [this section](#db_dynamodb_region)
|
||||
|
||||
> **_NOTE:_** `mem` DB (In memory database) is useful to test the Jackson setup locally and is not intended for production. In a serverless deployment like Vercel, the mem DB won't persist across API calls since each call is a fresh lambda invocation with an entirely new context.
|
||||
|
||||
### **DB_TYPE**
|
||||
|
||||
Only needed when DB_ENGINE is sql. Supported values are `postgres`, `mysql`, `mariadb`, `mssql`
|
||||
|
||||
Default: `postgres`
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `db.type`
|
||||
|
||||
### **DB_URL**
|
||||
|
||||
The database URL to connect to. If you are using self-signed certificates then pass `sslmode=noverify` instead of `sslmode=require` in the `DB_URL`. This is because self-signed certs will be rejected as unauthorized in strict mode. Also, set `DB_SSL=true` and `DB_SSL_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=false` (see env vars below for more details).
|
||||
|
||||
Example: `postgres://postgres:postgres@localhost:5432/postgres` or `postgres://postgres:postgres@localhost:5432/postgres?sslmode=no-verify`
|
||||
|
||||
For `mssql` the URL takes the form of `sqlserver://localhost:1433;database=<db name>;username=<username>;password=<password>;encrypt=true`
|
||||
|
||||
> **_NOTE:_** If you are using DynamoDB then you also need to set `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`. For additional options like region and capacity units check [this section](#db_dynamodb_region)
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `db.url`
|
||||
|
||||
### **DB_SSL**
|
||||
|
||||
This needs to be set to `true` if you are using SSL with your database (You should definitely be using SSL if the database needs to be access via a public url).
|
||||
|
||||
Default: `false`
|
||||
|
||||
### **DB_SSL_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED**
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using a self-signed certificate then set this to `false`, otherwise it will be rejected due to Certificate Authority checks.
|
||||
|
||||
Default: `true`
|
||||
|
||||
### **DB_TTL**
|
||||
|
||||
TTL for the code, session and token stores (in seconds)
|
||||
|
||||
Default: `300`
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `db.ttl`
|
||||
|
||||
### **DB_CLEANUP_LIMIT**
|
||||
|
||||
Limit cleanup of TTL entries to this number
|
||||
|
||||
Default: `1000`
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `db.cleanupLimit`
|
||||
|
||||
### **DB_ENCRYPTION_KEY**
|
||||
|
||||
To encrypt data at rest specify a 32 character key
|
||||
|
||||
You can use openssl to generate a random 32 character key:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
openssl rand -base64 24
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `db.encryptionKey`
|
||||
|
||||
### **PGSSLMODE**
|
||||
|
||||
If you use Heroku to deploy Postgres (or use self-signed certs for Postgres) then set this to `no-verify`. See [Heroku docs](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/connecting-heroku-postgres#connecting-in-node-js) for more details
|
||||
|
||||
### **DB_DYNAMODB_REGION**
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using DynamoDB then you can specify the region.
|
||||
|
||||
Default: `us-east-1`
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `db.dynamodb.region`
|
||||
|
||||
### **DB_DYNAMODB_RCUS**
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using DynamoDB then you can specify the read capacity units. Check [AWS docs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/HowItWorks.ReadWriteCapacityMode.html) for more details
|
||||
|
||||
Default: 5
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `db.dynamodb.readCapacityUnits`
|
||||
|
||||
### **DB_DYNAMODB_WCUS**
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using DynamoDB then you can specify the write capacity units.
|
||||
|
||||
Default: 5
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `db.dynamodb.writeCapacityUnits`
|
||||
|
||||
## Webhook configuration
|
||||
|
||||
### **WEBHOOK_URL**
|
||||
|
||||
Specify a webhook URL to receive events about sso and directory connections.
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `webhook.endpoint`
|
||||
|
||||
### **WEBHOOK_SECRET**
|
||||
|
||||
Specify a secret to be used to sign the webhook payload. This is used to verify the authenticity of the webhook payload.
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `webhook.secret`
|
||||
|
||||
Both the `WEBHOOK_URL` and `WEBHOOK_SECRET` are required to enable webhook events.
|
||||
|
||||
## Pre-loaded Connections
|
||||
|
||||
### **PRE_LOADED_CONNECTION**
|
||||
|
||||
If you only need a single tenant or a handful of pre-configured tenants then this config will help you read and load IdP (both OpenID and SAML)connections. It works well with the mem DB engine so you don't have to configure any external databases for this to work (though it works with those as well). This is a path (absolute or relative) to a directory that contains files organized in the format described in the next section. Check [this section](./pre-loaded-connections.md) for more details
|
||||
|
||||
NPM library option: `preLoadedConnection`
|
||||
|
||||
## Opentelemetry configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Jackson supports observability via OpenTelemetry. The following env vars are available for configuration (along with the rest of the [supported ones](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-specification/blob/main/specification/protocol/exporter.md))
|
||||
|
||||
### **OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT** or **OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_METRICS_ENDPOINT**
|
||||
|
||||
Target URL to which the exporter is going to send metrics.
|
||||
|
||||
Example: `https://ingest.lightstep.com:443/metrics/otlp/v0.6`
|
||||
|
||||
### **OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS** or **OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_METRICS_HEADERS**
|
||||
|
||||
Headers relevant for the endpoint, useful for specifying authentication details for providers.
|
||||
|
||||
Example: `lightstep-access-token=<token>,...`
|
||||
|
||||
### **OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL** or **OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_METRICS_PROTOCOL**
|
||||
|
||||
The transport protocol. Options MUST be one of: `grpc`, `http/protobuf` or `http/json`.
|
||||
|
||||
### **OTEL_EXPORTER_DEBUG**
|
||||
|
||||
Set this to `true` to enable debug logs for Opentelemetry. This is only meant for purposes of debugging otel locally.
|
||||
|
||||
## Admin Portal configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Below variables are used to enable [Magic link](https://next-auth.js.org/providers/email) based authentication for Admin Portal. The **SMTP\_** variables are used for sending email which contain the magic link (one-time use) for sign in.
|
||||
|
||||
### **SMTP_HOST**
|
||||
|
||||
The SMTP host like `smtp.example.com`.
|
||||
|
||||
### **SMTP_PORT**
|
||||
|
||||
The SMTP server port like `587`.
|
||||
|
||||
### **SMTP_USER**
|
||||
|
||||
Username for the SMTP server.
|
||||
|
||||
### **SMTP_PASSWORD**
|
||||
|
||||
Password for the SMTP server.
|
||||
|
||||
### **SMTP_FROM**
|
||||
|
||||
_From_ address used to send mail like: `noreply@example.com`.
|
||||
|
||||
### **NEXTAUTH_URL**
|
||||
|
||||
When running locally this will point to the local server: `http://localhost:5225`. When deploying to production, set this to the canonical URL of the site. More details [here](https://next-auth.js.org/configuration/options#nextauth_url).
|
||||
|
||||
### **NEXTAUTH_SECRET**
|
||||
|
||||
Set this to a random string. You can use `openssl rand -base64 32` to get one. This secret is used to encrypt JWT and hash the email verification token. More details [here](https://next-auth.js.org/configuration/options#nextauth_secret).
|
||||
|
||||
### **NEXTAUTH_ACL**
|
||||
|
||||
Set this to a comma separated string of email addresses or glob patterns like: `tonystark@gmail.com,*@marvel.com`. Access will be denied to email addresses which don't match. If you don't specify any value access is denied to all.
|
||||
|
||||
### **NEXTAUTH_ADMIN_CREDENTIALS**
|
||||
|
||||
Set this to a comma separated string of the pattern `email:password` to enable login to the Admin Portal, for example `NEXTAUTH_ADMIN_CREDENTIALS=deepak@boxyhq.com:Password123`. If you don't specify any value access is denied to all.
|
||||
|
||||
### **ADMIN_PORTAL_SSO_TENANT**
|
||||
|
||||
This will be used as the tenant for the SSO connections (added from Settings tab) used to login into the Admin portal itself. Set this to a value that is less likely to conflict with the main Enterprise SSO connections.
|
||||
|
||||
Default: `_jackson_boxyhq`
|
||||
|
||||
### **ADMIN_PORTAL_SSO_PRODUCT**
|
||||
|
||||
This will be used as the product for the SSO connections (added from Settings tab) used to login into the Admin portal itself. Set this to a value that is less likely to conflict with the main Enterprise SSO connections.
|
||||
|
||||
Default: `_jackson_admin_portal`
|
||||
|
||||
### **RETRACED_HOST_URL**
|
||||
|
||||
If you'd like to use the Admin Portal to manage our Audit Logs service ([Retraced](https://github.com/retracedhq/retraced)) then set this env var to the URL of the service.
|
||||
|
||||
### **RETRACED_EXTERNAL_URL**
|
||||
|
||||
If you'd like to use the Admin Portal to manage our Audit Logs service ([Retraced](https://github.com/retracedhq/retraced)) then set this env var to the Public URL of the service. If this is the same as `RETRACED_HOST_URL` above then you can skip this and it will default to the value of `RETRACED_HOST_URL`.
|
||||
|
||||
Default: It is set to `RETRACED_HOST_URL` if `RETRACED_EXTERNAL_URL` is not defined.
|
||||
|
||||
### **RETRACED_ADMIN_ROOT_TOKEN**
|
||||
|
||||
you need to set the admin root token for Retraced so that we can connect to Retraced and fetch projects and audit logs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Anonymous Analytics
|
||||
|
||||
### **BOXYHQ_NO_TELEMETRY** or **DO_NOT_TRACK**
|
||||
|
||||
Set one of these to `1` or `true` to turn off our anonymous analytics. We only track usage events once per day and it does not contain any information that can identify you in any form.

title: Getting Started with SAML Jackson
|
||||
description: Getting Started with SAML Single Sign-On authentication
|
||||
sidebar_label: Overview
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
SAML Jackson can be used with any web application to integrate the **Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication**.
|
||||
|
||||
There are two ways to integrate SAML Jackson with an application. Depending on your use case, you can choose either one of them.
|
||||
|
||||
## As a [separate service](./service.md)
|
||||
|
||||
The advantage of running a separate service is that you get all of our UI tooling (like the Admin Portal) with the service. The disadvantage is that you have to manage the operations of a separate service. If you are not using Node.js then this is the only option available to you.
|
||||
|
||||
## As an [NPM library](./npm-library.md)
|
||||
|
||||
This is available if you are already developing your application using Node.js.
|
||||
|
||||
The advantage of embedding Jackson as an npm library is that you do not have to manage operations of a separate service. The disadvantage is that you do not readily get our UI tooling (like the Admin Portal) with this method.

|
||||
## Single Sign-On Authentication
|
||||
|
||||
### Handle OAuth 2.0 (or OIDC) Authorization request
|
||||
|
||||
To initiate the flow, the application must trigger an OAuth 2.0 (or OIDC) redirect to the authorization endpoint of your app. You'll use the `authorize` method within the authorization handler.
|
||||
|
||||
`authorize` will resolve the SSO URL (`redirect_url`) based on the connection configured for the tenant/product. The app needs to redirect the user to this URL. Keep in mind that the SSO URL structure is different based on the type of SSO Connection. For a SAML Connection, this will contain the `SAMLRequest` whereas for an OIDC Connection the SSO URL will be the Authorization endpoint with the OIDC request params (scope, response_type, etc.) attached.
|
||||
|
||||
<Tabs>
|
||||
<TabItem value="01" label="Request" default>
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
await oauth.authorize({
|
||||
tenant: 'boxyhq',
|
||||
product: 'your-app',
|
||||
redirect_uri:
|
||||
'<app redirect URI to which Jackson sents back the authorization code after authentication>',
|
||||
state:
|
||||
'<opaque value from the app which will be returned back from Jackson, this is need to prevent CSRF attacks>',

||||
}

```

|
||||
</TabItem>
|
||||
</Tabs>
|
||||
|
||||
### Handle IdP Response
|
||||
|
||||
The response is sent back to your app after authentication at IdP. After the handling of this response, the profile of the authenticated user is extracted and stored against a short-lived code that is then sent back to the app. To handle the response use the appropriate method as detailed below:
|
||||
|
||||
#### SAML Response
|
||||
|
||||
Handle the response from the SAML Identity Provider. After successful authentication, IdP sends back (via browser POST) the `SAMLResponse` and `RelayState` to the Assertion Consumer Service (ACS) URL (`samlPath`) of the app. You'll use the `samlResponse` method within your ACS endpoint. This will parse and validate the SAML Response after which the user profile is extracted.

||||
#### OIDC Response
|
||||
|
||||
Handle the response from the OIDC Identity Provider. After successful authentication, IdP sends back (via browser redirect) the `code` and `state` to the redirect URL (`oidcPath`) that handles the OIDC response. You'll use the `oidcAuthzResponse` method within your `oidcPath` handler. This will exchange the `code` for tokenSet (id_token and access_token) from the OIDC Provider. The "userinfo" endpoint of the OIDC Provider also gets invoked. Both the `id_token` claims and `userinfo` response are used to form the user profile.

# Pre-loaded SSO Connections
|
||||
|
||||
#### SAML
|
||||
|
||||
If PRE_LOADED_CONNECTION is set then it should point to a directory with the following structure (example below):-
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
boxyhq.js
|
||||
boxyhq.xml
|
||||
anothertenant.js
|
||||
anothertenant.xml
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The JS file has the following structure:-
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
defaultRedirectUrl: 'http://localhost:3366/login/saml',
|
||||
redirectUrl: '["http://localhost:3366/*"]',
|
||||
tenant: 'boxyhq.com',
|
||||
product: 'demo',
|
||||
name: 'testConnection',
|
||||
description: 'Just a test connection',
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The XML file (which should have the same name as the .js file) is the raw XML metadata file you receive from your Identity Provider. Please ensure it is saved in the `utf-8` encoding.
|
||||
|
||||
The config and XML above correspond to the [Add connection API - SAML tab](../sso-flow/index.md#21-add-connection).
|
||||
|
||||
#### OIDC
|
||||
|
||||
For a connection backed by OpenID IdP create the \*.js file at PRE_LOADED_CONNECTION as shown below:-
|
||||
|
||||
See [Add connection API - OIDC tab](../sso-flow/index.md#21-add-connection)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
defaultRedirectUrl: 'http://localhost:3366/sso/oauth/oidc',
|
||||
redirectUrl: '["http://localhost:3366"]',
|
||||
tenant: 'oidc.example.com',
|
||||
product: 'crm',
|
||||
name: 'OIDC connection for oidc.example.com',
|
||||
description: 'OIDC connection for oidc.example.com',
|
||||
oidcDiscoveryUrl:
|
||||
'https://accounts.google.com/.well-known/openid-configuration',
|
||||
oidcClientId: '<ClientId from the OpenID IdP>',
|
||||
oidcClientSecret: '<ClientSecret from the OpenID IdP>',
|
||||
};

# Service
|
||||
|
||||
## Health Check
|
||||
|
||||
The service offers a readiness and health check endpoint that can be configured in orchestration tools like Docker Compose and Kubernetes.
|
||||
|
||||
The `/api/health` GET endpoint returns a 200 when the service ready and healthy or a 5xx (typically 503) error if unhealthy. The response contains the current version of Jackson. For example: `{"version":"1.0.0"}`.
|
||||
|
||||
## With Docker
|
||||
|
||||
The docker container can be found at [boxyhq/jackson](https://hub.docker.com/r/boxyhq/jackson/tags). It is preferable to use a specific version instead of the `latest` tag.
|
||||
|
||||
Replace the values for `DB_URL`, `JACKSON_API_KEYS`, `NEXTAUTH_SECRET` and `NEXTAUTH_ADMIN_CREDENTIALS` with your own values before running docker run command.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker run \
|
||||
-p 5225:5225 \
|
||||
-e DB_ENGINE="sql" \
|
||||
-e DB_TYPE="postgres" \
|
||||
-e DB_URL="postgres://postgres:postgres@postgres:5432/postgres" \
|
||||
-e JACKSON_API_KEYS="secret" \
|
||||
-e NEXTAUTH_URL="http://localhost:5225" \
|
||||
-e EXTERNAL_URL="http://localhost:5225" \
|
||||
-e NEXTAUTH_SECRET="super-secret" \
|
||||
-e NEXTAUTH_ADMIN_CREDENTIALS="admin@company.com:secretpassword" \
|
||||
-d boxyhq/jackson
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
OR
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker run \
|
||||
-p 5225:5225 \
|
||||
-e DB_ENGINE="mongo" \
|
||||
-e DB_URL="mongodb://localhost:27017/jackson" \
|
||||
-e JACKSON_API_KEYS="secret" \
|
||||
-e NEXTAUTH_URL="http://localhost:5225" \
|
||||
-e EXTERNAL_URL="http://localhost:5225" \
|
||||
-e NEXTAUTH_SECRET="super-secret" \
|
||||
-e NEXTAUTH_ADMIN_CREDENTIALS="admin@company.com:secretpassword" \
|
||||
-d boxyhq/jackson
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
See the complete list of [Environment Variables](./env-variables.md)
|
||||
|
||||
Kubernetes and docker-compose deployment files will be coming soon.
|
||||
|
||||
## Without Docker
|
||||
|
||||
Please follow the below instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
### Clone the repository
|
||||
|
||||
You can clone the source from the [Jackson GitHub repo](https://github.com/boxyhq/jackson/tree/release)
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/boxyhq/jackson
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd jackson
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Install dependencies
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npm install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Add environment variables
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cp .env.example .env
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Update `.env` with your values. See the complete list of [Environment Variables](./env-variables.md)
|
||||
|
||||
### Build and run
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npm run build
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npm run start
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Test the service is running
|
||||
|
||||
Open a browser and visit [http://localhost:5225](http://localhost:5225).
|
||||
|
||||
If you see a page asking you to sign in, congrats 🎉 you are seeing the [Admin Portal](../../admin-portal/overview).
|
||||
|
||||
## Database
|
||||
|
||||
Jackson currently supports the following databases.
|
||||
|
||||
- Postgres
|
||||
- MySQL
|
||||
- Microsoft SQL Server
|
||||
- MariaDB
|
||||
- MongoDB
|
||||
- Redis
|
||||
- [PlanetScale](https://planetscale.com/) (MySQL compatible)
|
||||
- [Neon](https://neon.tech) (Serverless Postgres)
|
||||
- Amazon DynamoDB
|
||||
|
||||
### PlanetScale
|
||||
|
||||
To connect PlanetScale database with Jackson, follow the below steps:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create a new database on PlanetScale
|
||||
2. Get your database [connection URL from the PlanetScale](https://planetscale.com/docs/tutorials/deploy-to-netlify#get-your-connection-string-from-planetscale)
|
||||
3. Set the following environment variables
|
||||
|
||||
- `DB_ENGINE=planetscale`
|
||||
- `DB_TYPE=mysql`
|
||||
- `DB_SSL=true`
|
||||
- `DATABASE_URL=<PlanetScale connection URL>`
|
||||
|
||||
4. Run the database migration to create the tables required by SAML Jackson
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd npm && PLANETSCALE_URL=<PlanetScale connection URL> npm run db:migration:run:planetscale
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure you have `?ssl={"rejectUnauthorized":true}` at the end of the PlanetScale connection URL.
|
||||
|
||||
Now you are ready to start the service.
|
||||
|
||||
## SAML Tracer
|
||||
|
||||
Each error event in the SAML request/ response phase is captured to aid in troubleshooting the SAML setup. The record or trace contains context related to the flow, like tenant, product, etc. The Admin Portal will have a tab under Enterprise SSO -> SAML Tracer showing a paginated list of traces over time. Developers can inspect a trace and will be able to ascertain the real reason for the failure.
|
||||

# Webhook Events
|
||||
|
||||
SAML Jackson uses webhooks to notify your application any time changes are made to the connections. We'll notify you of the following 4 events for each connection.
|
||||

# Enterprise SSO
|
||||
|
||||
Jackson is our Single Sign-On (SSO) service for SAML/OIDC Identity Providers [SSO in a box from BoxyHQ].
|
||||
|
||||
Jackson implements SSO as an OAuth 2.0 flow, abstracting away all the complexities of the underlying SAML/OIDC protocol. Check out our [GitHub repo](https://github.com/boxyhq/jackson).
|
||||
|
||||
## Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
![img alt](/img/enterprise-sso-arch.png)
|
||||
|
||||
We have developed Jackson from scratch adopting a modular architecture as shown below. The business logic is separated into controllers which helps us in incremental adoption of features.

# SAML Federation
|
||||
|
||||
SAML Federation is an enterprise feature and you need to have an enterprise license to use this feature.
|
||||
|
||||
This feature allows you to federate multiple Identity Providers (IdPs) without needing any additional plugins or code changes. Extremely useful in cases where the SAML support is restricted to a single provider and you need to support multiple IdPs. Contact us to find out more.
|
||||
|
||||
## SAML Federation Flow
|
||||
|
||||
Here is how the SAML Federation flow works if you are using Jackson as a SAML IdP and want to federate with another identity provider (IdP) (Eg: Okta):
|
||||
|
||||
- The user accesses the Service Provider's (SP) login page
|
||||
- The user clicks on the "Login with SAML" button
|
||||
- The SP sends SAML Request to Jackson's SSO endpoint
|
||||
- Jackson displays the list of IdP available for the user to choose from (if there is more than one IdP) based on the requested tenant and product combination
|
||||
- Jackson redirects the user to the chosen IdP for authentication
|
||||
- After successful authentication, IdP sends (POST) SAML Response to Jackson's ACS endpoint
|
||||
- Jackson process SAML Response from the IdP and create a new SAML Response to send (POST) back to the SP's ACS endpoint
|
||||
- SP process SAML Response from Jackson and create a new session for the user (Depending on the SP's implementation)
|
||||
|
||||

# Software Bill Of Materials (SBOM) Reports
|
||||
|
||||
[SBOM](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_bill_of_materials) is a list of components in a piece of software. It is like a list of ingredients of a product and is quickly becoming a standard for software supply chain risk management. The ecosystem is growing with tools that help you verify, scan and monitor all your dependencies.
|
||||
|
||||
## Report Standards
|
||||
|
||||
SBOM reports primarily use [SPDX](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_Package_Data_Exchange) & [CycloneDX](https://cyclonedx.org/) standards.
|
||||
|
||||
## Reports
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** This is supported for all versions >=0.3.8
|
||||
|
||||
You can find the SBOM reports as artifacts in our container registry at the locations below. They are updated every time there is change in the codebase and tagged by the exact version we release.

# Security
|
||||
|
||||
In general most OAuth 2.0 security guidelines apply to Jackson as well but there are a few minor differences.
|
||||
|
||||
## Tenancy
|
||||
|
||||
OAuth 2.0 is typically a single instance and all users can login using the same instance. However SAML is based on an specific instance that your customers have to configure with their Identity Provider. This means that access to the SAML instance is limited to only those that have been provisioned for it, adding another layer of security to the login flow.
|
||||
|
||||
## Client Secret
|
||||
|
||||
The Config API returns a `client_id` and `client_secret` that you can save for each customer and use when initiating the OAuth 2.0 flow. However for convenience we also let you use a `tenant` and `product` instead since this doesn't require you to store any additional data. When using this we recommend you use the [CLIENT_SECRET_VERIFIER](./deploy/env-variables.md#client_secret_verifier) configuration and not use the default `dummy` value. The `client_secret` cannot really be misused because as you will see in the next section the tokens are short lived but it is a good idea to set the `client_secret` to something that is really a secret.
|
||||
|
||||
For client-side logins we highly recommend you use the PKCE flow which is supported by Jackson. This ensures a secure login without revealing the `client_secret` on the client-side.
|
||||
|
||||
## Tokens
|
||||
|
||||
The tokens generated by Jackson are short lived (default is 5 minutes) and hence there is no risk of it being misused even if the `client_secret` is known. Your SAML provider ensures that there can be no unauthorized.

## Scenario
|
||||
|
||||
Let's say you have a customer `acme.com` who is using two of your SaaS offerings. For now let's call them:
|
||||
|
||||
- `CRM (Customer Relationship Management)` - Should integrate with the customer (of acme.com) facing SAML Identity Provider (Azure AD)
|
||||
- `HRM (Human Resource Management)` - Should integrate with the Google workspace account of `acme.com` employees.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's see how SSO works in this case.
|
||||
|
||||
## Configure the SSO Connection
|
||||
|
||||
First as the application developer, you'll need to [add](./index.md#21-add-connection) the SSO connections for CRM and HRM. This will be saved (marked as SAML Metadata and OIDC Metadata in the below diagram) within Jackson and later used to orchestrate the IdP login.
|
||||
|
||||
## Login flow
|
||||
|
||||
Jackson uses the Authorization Code flow as outlined by the numbered steps below.
|
||||
|
||||
1. The Client (Browser app) initiates the login by redirecting to Jackson [`authorize`](./index.md#31-authorize) endpoint. Jackson will parse the tenant/product in the request and use it to redirect the user to the configured IdP.
|
||||
2. Step 2 varies based on the Identity Provider type. For SAML IdP, Jackson would construct the SAML request, sign it and send it to IdP. The IdP validates the request and redirects the user to the login screen. For OIDC IdP, Jackson constructs an OpenID Connect request and redirects the user to the OIDC Provider authorization endpoint.
|
||||
3. Once the user is logged in successfully, the IdP redirects back to Jackson. For SAML, the response contains the user profile. In the case of OIDC, the response contains the authorization code that is used by Jackson to obtain token and userprofile from the OIDC IdP. Jackson generates a short lived code and stores the user profile against it.
|
||||
4. The authorization code generated in the previous step is sent to the client app.
|
||||
5. The client [`exchanges`](./index.md#32-code-exchange) the code for token and uses it to query the [`userInfo`](./index.md#33-profile-request) endpoint of Jackson to get the complete user profile.

# Single Sign-On (SSO)
|
||||
|
||||
Jackson takes a multi-tenanted approach to implementing SSO, abstracting away all the complexities of the underlying SAML/OIDC protocol. What this means is you can enable SSO for all (your) customers across products from a single instance of jackson, and works with both SAML and OIDC Identity Provider(IdP)s.
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** All the APIs below support both `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` and `application/json` content types. Examples below use `application/x-www-form-urlencoded`.
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** OAuth 2.0 protocol uses underscore casing for the parameters, we use camel casing for all our APIs. For example it's `client_id` in the OAuth 2.0 flow and `clientID` in our APIs.
|
||||
|
||||
## 1. Setting up SSO Provider
|
||||
|
||||
Please follow the instructions [here](../sso-providers) to guide your customers in setting up SAML/OIDC correctly for your product(s). You should create a copy of the doc and modify it with your custom settings, we have used the values that work for our demo apps.
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. SSO Connection API
|
||||
|
||||
You will need to provide a place in the UI for your customers (The account settings page is usually a good place for this) to configure this and then call the APIs below.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2.1 Add connection
|
||||
|
||||
<Tabs>
|
||||
<TabItem value="saml" label="SAML" default>
|
||||
|
||||
Once your customer has set up the SAML app on their Identity Provider, the Identity Provider will generate an IdP or SP metadata file. Some Identity Providers only generate an IdP metadata file but it usually works for the SP login flow as well. It is an XML file that contains various attributes Jackson needs to validate incoming SAML login requests. This step is the equivalent of setting an OAuth 2.0 app and generating a client ID and client secret that will be used in the login flow.
|
||||
|
||||
The following API call sets up the connection in Jackson:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
curl --location --request POST 'http://localhost:5225/api/v1/connections' \
|
||||
--header 'Authorization: Api-Key <Jackson API Key>' \
|
||||
--header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'encodedRawMetadata=Base64(<IdP/SP metadata XML>)' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'defaultRedirectUrl=http://localhost:3366/login/saml' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'redirectUrl=http://localhost:3366/*' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'redirectUrl=http://localhost:3000/*' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'tenant=boxyhq.com' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'product=demo' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'name=demo-connection' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'description=Demo SAML connection'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- `metadataUrl`: URL containing the SAML metadata contents. Either this or `encodedRawMetadata` needs to be specified
|
||||
- `encodedRawMetadata`: Base64 encoding of the XML metadata your customer gets from their Identity Provider. Either this or `metadataUrl` needs to be specified
|
||||
- `defaultRedirectUrl`: The redirect URL to use in the IdP login flow. Jackson will call this URL after completing an IdP login flow
|
||||
- `redirectUrl`: Allowed redirect URL. Repeat this field multiple times to allow multiple redirect URLs. Jackson will disallow any redirects not on this list (or not the default URL above).
|
||||
- `tenant`: Jackson supports a multi-tenant architecture, this is a unique identifier you set from your side that relates back to your customer's tenant. This is normally an email, domain, an account id, or user-id. **Should not contain the : character since we use it as a delimiter internally**
|
||||
- `product`: Jackson support multiple products, this is a unique identifier you set from your side that relates back to the product your customer is using. **Should not contain the : character since we use it as a delimiter internally**
|
||||
- `name`: A friendly name to identify the SAML connection
|
||||
- `description`: A short description with some information of the connection
|
||||
|
||||
The response returns a JSON with `clientID` and `clientSecret` that can be stored against your tenant and product for a more secure OAuth 2.0 flow. If you do not want to store the `clientID` and `clientSecret` you can alternatively use `client_id=tenant=<tenantID>&product=<productID>` and use `dummy` (or the value you set for the [secret verifier](../deploy/env-variables.md#client_secret_verifier) env) as the value for `client_secret` when setting up the OAuth 2.0 flow. Additionally a `idpMetadata.provider` attribute is also returned which indicates the domain of your Identity Provider.
|
||||
</TabItem>
|
||||
<TabItem value="oidc" label="OIDC">
|
||||
|
||||
Once your customer has set up the [OIDC app](../sso-providers/generic-oidc.md) on their Identity Provider, the Identity Provider will generate a clientId and clientSecret.
|
||||
|
||||
The following API call sets up the connection in Jackson:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
curl --location --request POST 'http://localhost:5225/api/v1/connections' \
|
||||
--header 'Authorization: Api-Key <Jackson API Key>' \
|
||||
--header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'defaultRedirectUrl=http://localhost:3366/login/oidc' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'oidcDiscoveryUrl=<well-known url of OIDC Provider>' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'oidcClientId=<clientId of IdP Registered App>' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'oidcClientSecret=<clientSecret of IdP Registered App>' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'redirectUrl=http://localhost:3366/*' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'redirectUrl=http://localhost:3000/*' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'tenant=boxyhq.com' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'product=demo' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'name=demo-connection' \
|
||||
--data-urlencode 'description=Demo OIDC connection'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- `oidcDiscoveryUrl`: OpenID Providers supporting discovery make the metadata available at the endpoint obtained by concatenating issuer and `/.well-known/openid-configuration`
|
||||
- `oidcClientId`: The client identifier issued to the client during the IdP registration process.
|
||||
- `oidcClientSecret`: The client secret issued to the client during the IdP registration process.
|
||||
- `defaultRedirectUrl`: The redirect URL to use in the IdP login flow. Jackson will call this URL after completing an IdP login flow
|
||||
- `redirectUrl`: Allowed redirect URL. Repeat this field multiple times to allow multiple redirect URLs. Jackson will disallow any redirects not on this list (or not the default URL above).
|
||||
- `tenant`: Jackson supports a multi-tenant architecture, this is a unique identifier you set from your side that relates back to your customer's tenant. This is normally an email, domain, an account id, or user-id. **Should not contain the : character since we use it as a delimiter internally**
|
||||
- `product`: Jackson support multiple products, this is a unique identifier you set from your side that relates back to the product your customer is using. **Should not contain the : character since we use it as a delimiter internally**
|
||||
- `name`: A friendly name to identify the OIDC connection
|
||||
- `description`: A short description with some information of the connection
|
||||
|
||||
The response returns a JSON with `clientID` and `clientSecret` that can be stored against your tenant and product for a more secure OAuth 2.0 flow. If you do not want to store the `clientID` and `clientSecret` you can alternatively use `client_id=tenant=<tenantID>&product=<productID>` and use `dummy` (or the value you set for the [secret verifier](../deploy/env-variables.md#client_secret_verifier) env) as the value for `client_secret` when setting up the OAuth 2.0 flow. Additionally a `idpMetadata.provider` attribute is also returned which indicates the domain of your Identity Provider.

## 3. OAuth 2.0 Flow
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
|
||||
#### OpenID Connect flow
|
||||
|
||||
Jackson also supports the [OIDC flow](https://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-core-1_0.html). By including `openid` in the `scope` param, an additional `id_token` is returned from the token endpoint which contains the user claims: `id, email, firstName, and lastName`. To enable the flow on Jackson, be sure to configure the keys and algorithm in [OpenID configuration](../deploy/env-variables.md#openid-configuration). If the authentication request contained `nonce` then it is passed unmodified to the ID Token, which the client can use to validate and mitigate replay attacks.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Jackson has been designed to abstract the underlying SAML/OIDC login flow as a pure OAuth 2.0 flow. This means it's compatible with any standard OAuth 2.0 library out there, both client-side and server-side. It is important to remember that SSO Connection is configured per customer unlike OAuth 2.0 where you can have a single OAuth app supporting logins for all customers.
|
||||
|
||||
Jackson also supports the PKCE authorization flow (<https://oauth.net/2/pkce/>), so you can protect your SPAs.
|
||||
|
||||
If for any reason you need to implement the flow on your own, the steps are outlined below:
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.1 Authorize
|
||||
|
||||
The OAuth flow begins with redirecting your user to the `authorize` URL:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
https://localhost:5225/api/oauth/authorize
|
||||
?response_type=code&provider=saml
|
||||
&client_id=<clientID or tenant and product query params as described in the SSO connection API section above>
|
||||
&redirect_uri=<redirect URL>
|
||||
&state=<randomly generated state id>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- `response_type`: `code` is the only supported type for now but maybe extended in the future
|
||||
- `client_id`: Use the client_id returned by the SSO connection API or use `tenant=<tenantID>&product=<productID>` to use the tenant and product IDs instead. **Note:** Please don't forget to URL encode the query parameters including `client_id`.
|
||||
- `tenant`: Optionally you can provide use `dummy` as the value for `client_id` and specify the `tenant` and `product` custom attributes (if your OAuth 2.0 library allows it).
|
||||
- `product`: Should be specified if specifying `tenant` above
|
||||
- `idp_hint`: Can be used to select the Identity Provider if multiple connections match for the same `tenant/product`. Should point to the absolute "clientID" of the SSO Connection in Jackson.
|
||||
- `redirect_uri`: This is where the user will be taken back once the authorization flow is complete
|
||||
- `state`: Use a randomly generated string as the state, this will be echoed back as a query parameter when taking the user back to the `redirect_uri` above. You should validate the state to prevent XSRF attacks.
|
||||
- `nonce` (for OIDC flow): String value used to associate a Client session with an ID Token, and to mitigate replay attacks. The value is passed through unmodified from the Authentication Request to the ID Token. Sufficient entropy MUST be present in the nonce values used to prevent attackers from guessing values.
|
||||
- `forceAuthn` (for SAML SSO Connections): If passed in with the value `true`, the outgoing SAML request to IdP will have the param `ForceAuthn` set as true forcing the user to re-authenticate even if they have an active session.
|
||||
- `login_hint` (Relevant for OIDC IdPs like Google): If passed in, the parameter will be forwarded in the OIDC IdP authorize request. The IdP can use this value (normally an account identifier such as an email address) as a hint to skip the account selection page.
|
||||
|
||||
**NOTE**: You can also pass the encoded tenant/product in either `scope` or `access_type` or `resource` (Set `client_id` as `dummy`). This will come in handy for some setups where the client_id can't be set dynamically.
|
||||
|
||||
The user will be taken to the IdP based on the configured SAML/OIDC metadata.
|
||||
In case of any errors, we return the `error`, `error_description` and `state` (from original request) (see [Error Response](https://www.oauth.com/oauth2-servers/authorization/the-authorization-response/)) back to the `redirect_uri` (`redirect_uri` is validated against the saml connection to prevent open redirects).
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.2 Code Exchange
|
||||
|
||||
Once the user logs in successfully at the IdP, IdP sends back the SAML/OIDC response to Jackson. For SAML, the response contains the user profile. In the case of OIDC, the response contains the authorization code that is used by Jackson to obtain token and userprofile from the OIDC IdP. Jackson generates a short lived `code` and stores the user profile against it. After successful authorization, the user is redirected back to the `redirect_uri`. The query parameters will include the `code` and `state` parameters. You should validate that the state matches the one you sent in the `authorize` request.
|
||||
|
||||
The code can then be exchanged for a token by making the following request:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
curl --request POST \
|
||||
--url 'http://localhost:5225/api/oauth/token' \
|
||||
--header 'content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
|
||||
--data 'grant_type=authorization_code' \
|
||||
--data 'client_id=<clientID or tenant and product query params as described in the SAML connection API section above>' \
|
||||
--data 'client_secret=<clientSecret or any arbitrary value if using the tenant and product in the clientID>' \
|
||||
--data 'redirect_uri=<redirect URL>' \
|
||||
--data 'code=<code from the query parameter above>'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- `grant_type`: `authorization_code` is the only supported flow, for now. We might extend this in the future
|
||||
- `client_id`: Use the client_id returned by the SSO connection API or use `tenant=<tenantID>&product=<productID>` to use the tenant and product IDs instead. **Note:** Please don't forget to URL encode the query parameters including `client_id`.
|
||||
- `client_secret`: Use the client_secret returned by the SAML connection API or any arbitrary value if using the tenant and product in the clientID
|
||||
- `redirect_uri`: This is where the user will be taken back once the authorization flow is complete. Use the same redirect_uri as the previous request
|
||||
|
||||
If everything goes well you should receive a JSON response that includes the access token. This token is needed for the next step where we fetch the user profile.
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"access_token": <access token>,
|
||||
"token_type": "bearer",
|
||||
"expires_in": 300
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.3 Profile Request
|
||||
|
||||
The short-lived access token can now be used to request the user's profile. You'll need to make the following request:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
curl --request GET \
|
||||
--url 'https://localhost:5225/api/oauth/userinfo' \
|
||||
--header 'authorization: Bearer <access token>'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If everything goes well you should receive a JSON response with the user's profile:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"id": <id from the Identity Provider>,
|
||||
"email": "sjackson@coolstartup.com",
|
||||
"firstName": "SAML",
|
||||
"lastName": "Jackson"
|
||||
"raw": {
|
||||
...
|
||||
},
|
||||
"requested": {
|
||||
...
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- `id`: The id of the user as provided by the Identity Provider. (SAML SLO request requires you to pass `id` as `nameId`. Save `id` if you have a plan to implement SLO in the future.)
|
||||
- `email`: The email address of the user as provided by the Identity Provider
|
||||
- `firstName`: The first name of the user as provided by the Identity Provider
|
||||
- `lastName`: The last name of the user as provided by the Identity Provider
|
||||
- `raw`: This contains all claims attributes returned by the SAML provider
|
||||
- `requested`: This contains the `tenant`, `product`, `client_id` and `state` from the authorize request. It can be used to reconcile context on the client side if needed
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. SAML SLO
|
||||
|
||||
SLO is a SAML flow that allows an end-user to logout of a single session and be automatically logged out of all linked sessions created during the SSO process.
|
||||
|
||||
The SLO flow begins with redirecting your user to the `/api/logout` endpoint.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
https://localhost:5225/api/logout
|
||||
?nameId=google-auth0-f92cc1834efc0f73e9c09
|
||||
&tenant=boxyhq.com
|
||||
&product=demo
|
||||
&redirectUrl=http://www.example.com/logout
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- `nameId`: Identifies the subject of a SAML assertion (Typically the user who is authenticated)
|
||||
- `tenant`: The tentant
|
||||
- `product`: The product
|
||||
- `redirectUrl`: Post logout redirect URL
|
||||
|
||||
IdP will send a response (as a POST operation) to a specific URL (Single Logout URL) for the logout request. You need to register this URL on the IdP `/api/logout/callback` to handle the response.
|
||||
|
||||
Jackson will redirect users to `redirectUrl` after the successful logout.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
You should save the `id` returned by the `userinfo` for an user so that you can use the `id` as `nameId` with SLO request.

# OIDC Provider setup
|
||||
|
||||
To allow apps or clients to login using an OIDC Identity Provider, we must register an application with the IdP. The process might slightly vary from one IdP to another (refer your IdP documentation), but there are a few things in common.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Callback URL**: This will be the URL where Jackson receives the OIDC Authorization response. Make sure to set the full HTTPS URL obtained by concatenating Jackson endpoint with [oidcPath](../deploy/env-variables.md#oidc_path) env. The default value set for `oidcPath` in Jackson service is `/api/oauth/oidc`.
|
||||
- **Client/Application ID**: The OIDC Identity Provider normally will generate a unique identifier for the registered App. Make a note of this to be used later when creating the SSO connection with Jackson.
|
||||
- **Client Secret**: Along with the Client ID, the IdP also generates a client secret which is used to authenticate the client while issuing tokens. Make a note of this to be used later when creating the SSO connection with Jackson.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Since Jackson acts as a proxy between the app and the OIDC Identity Provider, here the application/client is Jackson.

This guide explains the settings you’d need to use to configure SAML with your Identity Provider. Once this is set up you should get an XML metadata file that should then be configured using our [API (or calling the API controller connection method if using our NPM)](../sso-flow/index.md#21-add-connection).

As outlined in the guide above we try and support 4 attributes in the SAML claims - `id`, `email`, `firstName`, `lastName`. This is how the common SAML attributes map over for most providers, but some providers have custom mappings. Please refer to the documentation on Identity Provider to understand the exact mapping.

# Microsoft AD FS SAML SSO
|
||||
|
||||
In this section, we will show you how to set up your own custom SAML application for Microsoft AD FS.
|
||||
|
||||
In AD FS, a relying party (RP) trust needs to be set up. You can supply our SP metadata file, usually located at `https://<your-hosted-url>/.well-known/sp-metadata` and let AD FS automatically pick up the configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are manually entering the details then you'll find the details you need in [this section](./generic-saml.md). The public certificate is needed for Signature verification and is usually located at `https://<your-hosted-url>/.well-known/saml.cer` for Signature verification.
|
||||
|
||||
You will also need to map some attributes of the claims so we can fetch the profile information for your user.
|
||||
|
||||
## Create a claims aware Relying Party Trust using federation metadata
|
||||
|
||||
1. In Server Manager, click Tools, and then select AD FS Management.
|
||||
2. Under Actions, click Add Relying Party Trust.
|
||||
![img alt](/img/sso-providers/adfs/addtrust1.png)
|
||||
3. On the Welcome page, choose Claims aware and click Start.
|
||||
![img alt](/img/sso-providers/adfs/addtrust2.png)
|
||||
4. On the Select Data Source page, click Import data about the relying party published online or on a local network. In Federation metadata address (host name or URL), type the federation metadata URL or host name for the partner, and then click Next.
|
||||
![img alt](/img/sso-providers/adfs/addtrust12.png)
|
||||
5. On the Specify Display Name page type a name in Display name, under Notes type a description for this relying party trust, and then click Next.
|
||||
6. On the Choose Issuance Authorization Rules page, select either Permit all users to access this relying party or Deny all users access to this relying party, and then click Next.
|
||||
7. On the Ready to Add Trust page, review the settings, and then click Next to save your relying party trust information.
|
||||
8. On the Finish page, click Close. This action automatically displays the Edit Claim Rules dialog box.
|
||||
9. **Mapping attributes**:
|
||||
On the Configure Claim Rule screen, enter a Claim Rule Name of your choice, select Active Directory as the Attribute Store, then add the following mapping:
|
||||
|
||||
- From the LDAP Attribute column, select `E-Mail-Addresses`. From the Outgoing Claim Type, type `E-Mail Address`.
|
||||
- From the LDAP Attribute column, select `Given-Name`. From the Outgoing Claim Type, type `Given Name`.
|
||||
- From the LDAP Attribute column, select `Surname`. From the Outgoing Claim Type, type `Surname`.
|
||||
- From the LDAP Attribute column, select `User-Principal-Name`. From the Outgoing Claim Type, type `Name ID`.
|
||||
|
||||
10. **Transform Rule**: Create a transform rule mapping the incoming `Email-Address` to outgoing `NameID` (of type `Email`), ADFS by default sends `NameID` as `Unspecified` which results in an `InvalidNameIDPolicy` error if this step is missed.
|
||||
|
||||
![Transform rule](/img/sso-providers/adfs/nameid-email.png)
|
||||
|
||||
If you'd rather use Claim rule language then the following rule can be applied:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
c:[Type == "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/emailaddress"] => issue(Type = "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/nameidentifier", Issuer = c.Issuer, OriginalIssuer = c.OriginalIssuer, Value = c.Value, ValueType = c.ValueType, Properties["http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claimproperties/format"] = "urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress");
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
11. Finally open Windows PowerShell as an administrator, then run the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
Set-ADFSRelyingPartyTrust -TargetName <display-name> -SamlResponseSignature "MessageAndAssertion"
|
||||
```

# Rippling SAML SSO
|
||||
|
||||
This section will show you how to set up your own custom SAML application for Rippling SAML.
|
||||
|
||||
## Create Application
|
||||
|
||||
You'll need to create a new **Custom App** from your Rippling account if the app is not already in the Rippling app directory.
|
||||
|
||||
Go to **IT Management** > **Custom App** from the left navigation menu.
|
||||
|
||||
![img alt](/img/sso-providers/rippling/1.png)
|
||||
|
||||
Click **Create New App** button to create a new application.
|
||||
|
||||
From the next screen, fill in the following fields:
|
||||
|
||||
- **App Name**
|
||||
- **Select Categories**
|
||||
- **Upload Logo**
|
||||
- **What type of app would you like to create?** - Make sure you select **Single Sign-On (SAML)** from the list.
|
||||
|
||||
![img alt](/img/sso-providers/rippling/2.png)
|
||||
|
||||
## Configure Application
|
||||
|
||||
Copy the **Idp Metadata URL** or **Idp Metadata XML** from the next screen. You'll need this value to configure your SAML connection in SAML Jackson.
|
||||
|
||||
![img alt](/img/sso-providers/rippling/3.png)
|
||||
|
||||
You'll need to enter the **ACS URL** and **Entity ID**. You'll get these values from SAML Jackson.
|
||||
|
||||
![img alt](/img/sso-providers/rippling/4.png)
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure that **Service Provider Entity ID** matches the **SAML Audience (SP Entity ID)** value from SAML Jackson.
|
||||
|
||||
From the **Settings** tab of custom app you just created. Go to **Advanced SAML Settings** section and check the box for **Disable InResponseTo field in assertions for IdP initiated SSO**.
|
||||
|
||||
This is because Rippling sends dummy values for the **InResponseTo** field and SAML Jackson will try to validate the **InResponseTo** field if it is present.
|
||||
|
||||
![img alt](/img/sso-providers/rippling/5.png)
|
||||
|
||||
## Next steps
|
||||

||||
You've successfully configured your custom SAML application for Rippling SAML. At this stage, you can assign users to your application and start using it.

# Upgrade Guide
|
||||
|
||||
## Upgrading to v1.11.0
|
||||
|
||||
We have patched the SSO connection (`/api/v1/connections`) DELETE handler to accept payload (client/Secret or tenant/product/strategy) as part of query parameters. Earlier, the payload was expected to be part of the body which is non-standard and is no longer supported in Next.js.
|
||||
|
||||
## Upgrading to v1.9.7
|
||||
|
||||
We discovered and fixed a database connection leak introduced in v1.9.1, if you are using versions 1.9.1 to 1.9.6 then please upgrade to v1.9.7
|
||||
|
||||
## Upgrading to v1.8.0
|
||||
|
||||
1. We support bringing your own database (BYOD), this is a very tricky feature to support and we are still iterating on the schema which works as seamlessly as possible across the range of databases we support. Unfortunately, not everything goes smoothly here and we have encountered some length issues on newer versions of MySQL and MariaDB. The best way forward was to change the schema of the keys we use from length 1500 to 250 which is compatible with the newer versions. As a result, this will break your updates if you are using MySQL, MariaDB, or MS SQL Server. If you encounter this please reach out and we'll guide you through the update process. If you haven't gone into production yet then please update to v1.8.0 before you deploy it to production.
|
||||
|
||||
## Upgrading to v1.3.10
|
||||
|
||||
1. For users of our npm library, `directorySync` has been renamed to `directorySyncController`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Upgrading to v1.3.6
|
||||
|
||||
1. `samlSPConfig.get()` is now async since we introduced a global certificate instead of per tenant certificate to ease the SAML setup process.
|
||||
|
||||
## Upgrading to v1.3.0
|
||||
|
||||
1. Landed support for OpenID Identity Providers.
|
||||
2. Landed new API (`/api/v1/connections`) to support setting up both SAML/OIDC SSO Connections.
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** The previous API for SAML configuration `/api/v1/saml/config` has been deprecated, and would be completely removed in a future release.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Renamed env variable `PRE_LOADED_CONFIG` to [`PRE_LOADED_CONNECTION`](deploy/env-variables.md#pre_loaded_connection) for Jackson service. In the case of npm `preLoadedConfig` becomes`preLoadedConnection`.
|
||||
4. Make sure to set the value for [`oidcPath`](deploy/env-variables.md#oidc_path) in case you are using the npm.
|

|
||||
## Backups
|
||||
|
||||
Please remember to take backups before upgrading Jackson. We cannot stress how important this step is, although we take precautions to avoid bugs they sometimes do slip by us. Having backups will not only help you recover from these rare events but should be part of your disaster recovery process. If you need any help with this please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

# Automated Audit Events
|
||||
|
||||
When an end customer uses a Viewer or Enterprise token to view logs directly from the Retraced API, Retraced will record the read event in your audit log.
|
||||
|
||||
You can configure these events with the optional `view_log_action` parameter when you create a new Viewer or Enterprise token through the Publisher API. The default action is "audit.log.view". Viewer tokens also require an `actor_id` parameter at creation time, while Enterprise token audit events generate an `actor.id` from the token.
|
||||
|
||||
## Viewer Example
|
||||
|
||||
Suppose a viewer token was created with `group_id=example.com`, `actor_id=user@example.com` and `action=viwer.view_logs`. When the token is used, an event like this will be inserted into your audit log:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"action": "viewer.view_logs",
|
||||
"crud": "r",
|
||||
"actor": {
|
||||
"id": "user@example.com"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"group": {
|
||||
"id": "example.com"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"description": "GET http://localhost:3000/auditlog/viewer/v1/graphql",
|
||||
"source_ip": "1.1.0.180"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Enterprise Example
|
||||
|
||||
An Enterprise token created with `group_id` "example.com" and no `view_log_action` would generate an event similar to this when used:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"action": "audit.log.view",
|
||||
"crud": "r",
|
||||
"actor": {
|
||||
"id": "enterprise:1234567"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"group": {
|
||||
"id": "example.com"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"description": "GET http://localhost:3000/auditlog/enterprise/v1/graphql",
|
||||
"source_ip": "1.1.0.180"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Viewer Enterprise Token Self-Management
|
||||
|
||||
Another instance where Viewers can perform actions bypassing your API is when creating, retrieiving, updating, or deleting their own Enterprise tokens. Retraced will add these events to your audit log on your behalf. Note that Retraced does not insert audit events when Enterprise tokens are managed through the Publisher API, since you have the option of sending your own audit events for these actions.
|
||||
|
||||
An example of an event logged when a Viewer creates their own Enterpise token is:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"action": "eitapi_token.create",
|
||||
"crud": "c",
|
||||
"actor": {
|
||||
"id": "user@example.com"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"group": {
|
||||
"id": "example.com"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"description": "POST http://localhost:3000/auditlog/viewer/v1/project/02211171900c4172b4a80d23855961c5/eitapi_token",
|
||||
"source_ip": "1.1.0.180"
|
||||
}

```

# Display Templates
|
||||
|
||||
Display templates is an important part of controlling how the events are rendered in the browser, exports or over any other stream.
|
||||
|
||||
A display template has the following components:
|
||||
|
||||
## Definitions
|
||||
|
||||
### Name
|
||||
|
||||
The name is internal only to the admin site. This is a place for you to record what the template is attempting to do.
|
||||
|
||||
### Rules
|
||||
|
||||
The rules field is a collection of rules that will be evaluated by the Retraced rules engine to determine if this template shoud be applied to the event. We'll cover that in detail shortly. But the idea is that you can have multiple rules, and the first one that matches will control how the event is rendered.
|
||||
|
||||
### Template
|
||||
|
||||
A handlebars-enabled, markdown rendered display template to use when the rules evaluate to true for a particular event. This ultimately is the text that you want to show for the matching events.
|
||||
|
||||
## Rules
|
||||
|
||||
Rules are processed against the event object. The best example is with actual data: you can click the Raw object in the admin site and see any actual event object. This is the exact context that is sent into the rule engine.
|
||||
|
||||
Rules are expressed as an array of comparators. When the _value_ of the _path_ matches the _comparator_, the rule evaluates to true and the template is applied. Retraced supports a large number of comparators, a [full list of comparators is available](/docs/retraced/advanced/template-comparators).
|
||||
|
||||
### Examples
|
||||
|
||||
This rule matches when the `action` is set to the string "document.edit":
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
[
|
||||
{
|
||||
"comparator": "is",
|
||||
"path": "action",
|
||||
"value": "document.edit"
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This rule matches when the `action` is set to the string "document.edit" AND the type of the document is set to "spreadsheet":
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
[
|
||||
{
|
||||
"comparator": "is",
|
||||
"path": "action",
|
||||
"value": "document.edit"
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
"comparator": "is",
|
||||
"path": "target.type",
|
||||
"value": "spreadsheet"
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Templates
|
||||
|
||||
Templates are a handlebars string that will be used to display the event. The context of the handlebars engine is the event object, and the output is a markdown string.
|
||||
|
||||
### Examples
|
||||
|
||||
Partial Event:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"action": "document.create",
|
||||
"actor": {
|
||||
"name": "Dr. Evil"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"target": {
|
||||
"type": "spreadsheet",
|
||||
"name": "Master Plan For World Domination.xlsx"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Template:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
**{{ actor.name }}** created the document **{{ target.name }}**
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Result:
|
||||
**Dr. Evil** created the document **Master Plan For World Domination**

# SSH Event Streaming
|
||||
|
||||
SSH Event Streaming allows Enterprise API users to stream events as they occur over ssh using an Enterprise API Token.
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
To use the SSH event streaming feature, you'll need to start by getting an
|
||||
[Enterprise API token](/docs/retraced/apis/enterprise-api#getting-an-enterprise-api-token).
|
||||
|
||||
To open a stream, connect to `tail.retraced.io` using your Enterprise API token as
|
||||
the username:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
ssh aeb1c315b9a8ed11a3f998d8e8ff@tail.retraced.io
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Once the connection is open, CSV events will begin to stream through stdout,
|
||||
and can be piped to a file or other event ingest system.
|
||||
|
||||
The same token can be used for multiple concurrent streaming sessions, all sessions
|
||||
will receive every event that occurs while they are active.
|
||||
|
||||
## Parameters
|
||||
|
||||
The streaming APIs support a few parameters that can control the format of events.
|
||||
The default output format is CSV, but JSON is also supported via the
|
||||
`format` parameter
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
ssh aeb1c315b9a8ed11a3f998d8e8ff?format=json@tail.retraced.io
|
||||
```

# Template Comparators
|
||||
|
||||
The following values are acceptable for "comparator" field in rules in the Retraced rules engine:
|
||||
|
||||
| Comparator | Desscription |
|
||||
| --- | --- |
|
||||
| `eq` | Matches when the `value` is equal to the event object data at `path`. This compares values only and doesn't compare types. |
|
||||
| `is` | The same as `eq` but it also compares types of objects. |
|
||||
| `neq` | Matches when the `value` is not equal to the event object data at `path`. This compares values only and doesn't compare types. This is the inverse of `eq`. |
|
||||
| `not` | The same as `neq` but it also compares types of objects. This is the inverse of `is`. |
|
||||
| `lt` | Matches when the `value` is less than the event object data at `path`. |
|
||||
| `lte` | Matches when the `value` is less than or equal to the event object data at `path`. |
|
||||
| `gt` | Matches when the `value` is greater than the event object data at `path`. |
|
||||
| `gte` | Matches when the `value` is greater than or equal to the event object data at `path`. |
|
||||
| `exists` | Matches when the `value` key exists and is not null on the event object data. |
|
||||
| `nexists` | Matches when the `value` key does not exists or is null on the event object data. |
|
||||
| `contains` | Matches when the event object data at `path` contains `value`. |
|
||||
| `ncontains` | Matches when the event object data at `path` does not contain `value`. |
|
||||
| `matches` | This rule is a raw regex rule. When the `value` is interpreted as a regular expression and applied to the event object data at `path`, returns the regex match value. |

# Tracking Event Publisher Versions
|
||||
|
||||
When sending events to Retraced, consumers of the [Publisher API](/docs/retraced/apis/publisher-api)
|
||||
may send event metadata like the name and version of the vendor component that is
|
||||
sending the events. A minimal event payload that includes this metadata might look like
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"action": "user.login",
|
||||
"crud": "c",
|
||||
"group": {
|
||||
"id": "7890123",
|
||||
"name": "some.customer"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"actor": {
|
||||
"id": "123456",
|
||||
"name": "user@example.com"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"component": "authentication-api",
|
||||
"version": "ae242df"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Where `component` describes a single versioned piece of a architecture like `authentication-api`
|
||||
or `spreadsheet-processor` and `version` is usually one of
|
||||
|
||||
- A git SHA of the component's source code as in `ae242df`
|
||||
- A semantic version for the component as in `1.0.3`
|
||||
- A build number of the component as in `129`
|
||||
|
||||
Sending this information to Retraced will allow Retraced to give better
|
||||
guarantees about time windows during which an event **did not** occur.
|
||||
|
||||
## Example
|
||||
|
||||
To better understand how this works, consider the following stream of events,
|
||||
in which the `password.change` action at 12:35 is the very first `password.change`
|
||||
event seen in Retraced, because a recent new release of the vendor app is the first
|
||||
to start tracking `password.change` events.
|
||||
|
||||
| action | received |
|
||||
| ----------------- | ------------------- |
|
||||
| `email.change` | 2017-01-01 11:14:00 |
|
||||
| `user.login` | 2017-01-01 11:30:00 |
|
||||
| `email.change` | 2017-01-01 12:01:00 |
|
||||
| `user.login` | 2017-01-01 12:12:00 |
|
||||
| `password.change` | 2017-01-01 12:35:00 |
|
||||
| `user.login` | 2017-01-01 12:49:00 |
|
||||
| `password.change` | 2017-01-01 12:52:00 |
|
||||
|
||||
Without any info about app versions, we can still say for certain that
|
||||
|
||||
- no `password.change` events occured between 12:35 and 12:52.
|
||||
|
||||
We cannot say anything about whether or not any `password.change` events
|
||||
occurred before 12:35, because we have to assume that the vendor application
|
||||
was not publishing these events until we see the first one at 12:35.
|
||||
|
||||
| action | received | component | version |
|
||||
| ----------------- | ------------------- | -------------------- | --------- |
|
||||
| `email.change` | 2017-01-01 11:14:00 | `authentication-api` | `aeb22f1` |
|
||||
| `user.login` | 2017-01-01 11:30:00 | `authentication-api` | `aeb22f1` |
|
||||
| `email.change` | 2017-01-01 12:01:00 | `authentication-api` | `fd02eed` |
|
||||
| `user.login` | 2017-01-01 12:12:00 | `authentication-api` | `fd02eed` |
|
||||
| `password.change` | 2017-01-01 12:35:00 | `authentication-api` | `fd02eed` |
|
||||
| `user.login` | 2017-01-01 12:49:00 | `authentication-api` | `fd02eed` |
|
||||
| `password.change` | 2017-01-01 12:52:00 | `authentication-api` | `493ef1d` |
|
||||
|
||||
Since we know the version of the component sending each event, we can know for sure
|
||||
that the app version that sends `password.change` events was sending `email.change` events as
|
||||
early as 12:01. In addition to what we knew before, that
|
||||
|
||||
- no `password.change` events occured between 12:35 and 12:52
|
||||
|
||||
we now can also guarantee that
|
||||
|
||||
- no `password.change` events occurred between 12:01 and 12:35.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: Being able to make these guarantees relies on an assumption that application
|
||||
versions change at the same time, and that there are never multiple versions of
|
||||
a single component running in parallel for significant periods of time. If
|
||||
Publisher API consumers rely on canary deploys or staged rollouts over several days,
|
||||
then component names will need to be rotated during the rollout.
|
||||
|
||||
## Using SDKs
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using one of the official [Retraced SDKs](/docs/retraced/sdks/available-sdks),
|
||||
you can provide the `version` and `component` fields when the client is initialized,
|
||||
and they will be sent for every event.

### [Swagger JSON](http://localhost:3000/auditlog/enterprise/v1/swagger.json) | [API Console](https://retraced.readme.io/v1.0/reference)
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
The Enterprise API is the API that the end customer (the enterprise IT administrator) will consume to pull their organization events and ingest it into their own internal systems.
|
||||
|
||||
## Authentication
|
||||
|
||||
The Enterprise API endpoints expect the token to be provided in a header of the form
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Authorization: token=YOUR_ENTERPRISE_TOKEN
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Getting an Enterprise API Token
|
||||
|
||||
There are currently two ways to manage Enterprise API tokens.
|
||||
|
||||
- Most often, end customers create and manage Enterprise IT tokens using the UI in the [Embedded Viewer](/docs/retraced/getting-started/embedded-viewer)
|
||||
- There are also endpoints in the [Publisher API](/docs/retraced/apis/publisher-api) that
|
||||
allow a vendor to create, edit, and delete Enterprise API tokens
|
||||
|
||||
Note that to allow end customers to manage Enterprise API tokens in the embedded viewer,
|
||||
the `is_admin` query parameter must be set to `true` when [requesting a token to initialize the embedded viewer](https://retraced.readme.io/reference#publisherv1projectprojectidviewertoken)

# GraphQL Endpoint
|
||||
|
||||
The recommended way to search events using an API is to POST your query and variables to the appropriate Retraced GraphQL endpoint.
|
||||
|
||||
| API | Endpoint |
|
||||
| ---------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| Publisher | http://localhost:3000/auditlog/publisher/v1/project/{projectId}/graphql |
|
||||
| Admin | http://localhost:3000/auditlog/admin/v1/project/{projectId}/environment/{environmentId}/graphql |
|
||||
| Enterprise | http://localhost:3000/auditlog/enterprise/v1/graphql |
|
||||
| Viewer | http://localhost:3000/auditlog/viewer/v1/graphql |
|
||||
|
||||
## Search
|
||||
|
||||
The query root provides a search method. A fully-formed query for a subset of event fields would look like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
{
|
||||
search(query:"action:user.login location:Germany", last:50, before:"opaquecursor") {
|
||||
totalCount
|
||||
pageInfo {
|
||||
hasNextPage
|
||||
}
|
||||
edges {
|
||||
cursor
|
||||
node {
|
||||
action
|
||||
actor {
|
||||
name
|
||||
}
|
||||
created
|
||||
country
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Variables
|
||||
|
||||
Use `query`, `last`, and `before` variables to enable reuse of your query templates. If you define a parameterized query like this...
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
const searchQuery = `query Search($query: String!, $last: Int, $before: String) {
|
||||
search(query:"action:user.login location:Germany", last:50, before:"opaquecursor") {
|
||||
totalCount
|
||||
pageInfo {
|
||||
hasNextPage
|
||||
}
|
||||
edges {
|
||||
cursor
|
||||
node {
|
||||
action
|
||||
actor {
|
||||
name
|
||||
}
|
||||
created
|
||||
country
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}`;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
... then you can execute searches like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
const vars = {
|
||||
query: "action:user.login location:German",
|
||||
last: 50,
|
||||
before: "opaquecursor",
|
||||
};
|
||||
const res = fetch("http://localhost:3000/auditlog/publisher/v1/project/3hf140713bn302/graphql", {
|
||||
method: "POST",
|
||||
headers: {
|
||||
"Accept": "application/json",
|
||||
"Content-Type": "application/json",
|
||||
"Authorization": "Token token=2ba3059ad7f14071b9befb2a7a2e195e",
|
||||
},
|
||||
body: JSON.stringify({
|
||||
query: searchQuery,
|
||||
variables: vars,
|
||||
}),
|
||||
});
|
||||
```

## Scalars
|
||||
|
||||
### Boolean
|
||||
|
||||
The `Boolean` scalar type represents `true` or `false`.
|
||||
|
||||
### ID
|
||||
|
||||
The `ID` scalar type represents a unique identifier, often used to refetch an object or as key for a cache. The ID type appears in a JSON response as a String; however, it is not intended to be human-readable. When expected as an input type, any string (such as `"4"`) or integer (such as `4`) input value will be accepted as an ID.
|
||||
|
||||
### Int
|
||||
|
||||
The `Int` scalar type represents non-fractional signed whole numeric values. Int can represent values between -(2^31) and 2^31 - 1.
|
||||
|
||||
### String
|
||||
|
||||
The `String` scalar type represents textual data, represented as UTF-8 character sequences. The String type is most often used by GraphQL to represent free-form human-readable text.

# Retraced APIs Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Retraced provides several APIs:
|
||||
|
||||
## Publisher API
|
||||
|
||||
the [Publisher API](/docs/retraced/apis/publisher-api) is the primary API that an application vendor will use to send events into Retraced. This is the API that the [Retraced SDKs](/docs/retraced/sdks/available-sdks) consume. When getting started, this is the first place to start. Use the Publisher API to start sending events into Retraced.
|
||||
|
||||
## Enterprise API
|
||||
|
||||
The [Enterprise API](/docs/retraced/apis/enterprise-api) is the API that the end customer (the enterprise IT administrator) will consume to pull their organization events and ingest it into their own internal systems.
|
||||
|
||||
## Admin API
|
||||
|
||||
The [Admin API](/docs/retraced/apis/admin-api) is an optional API that can be used in place of the Retraced Admin site. The Retraced Admin site uses this API. It's useful to managing your account and API tokens and pulling reports.

# Publisher API
|
||||
|
||||
### [Swagger JSON](http://localhost:3000/auditlog/publisher/v1/swagger.json) | [API Console](https://retraced.readme.io/v1.0/reference)
|
||||
|
||||
The Publisher API is the API that most applications will embed into a production system. This API contains the methods necessary to send new events into Retraced, create [viewer tokens](/docs/retraced/getting-started/embedded-viewer) and to programmatically search events when the embedded viewer is not being used.
|
||||
|
||||
When possible, it's recommended to use one of the supported [SDKs](/docs/retraced/sdks/available-sdks) as these provide an easier way to get started.
|
||||
|
||||
To consume the Publisher API directly, we publish a Swagger spec that is both [documented](https://retraced.readme.io/reference) and available in a [raw json object](http://localhost:3000/auditlog/publisher/v1/swagger.json).
|
||||
The endpoints for reporting events are `/project/{project_id}/event` and `/project/{project_id}/event/bulk`. The bulk endpoint is for reporting multiple events in a single call. Clients using the bulk endpoint should expect longer response times when submitting large numbers of events.
|
||||
|
||||
## Body
|
||||
|
||||
We send an event json to `/project/{project_id}/event` API.
|
||||
|
||||
Following are the `mandatory` fields.
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"action": "action-name",
|
||||
"crud": "c" | "r" | "u" | "d",
|
||||
"actor": {
|
||||
"id": "actor-id",
|
||||
"name": "actor-name"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In case of `/project/{project_id}/event/bulk` API we will send an array of events like below,
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"events": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"action": "action-name",
|
||||
"crud": "c" | "r" | "u" | "d",
|
||||
"actor": {
|
||||
"id": "actor-id",
|
||||
"name": "actor-name"
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
"action": "action-name",
|
||||
"crud": "c" | "r" | "u" | "d",
|
||||
"actor": {
|
||||
"id": "actor-id",
|
||||
"name": "actor-name"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Authentication
|
||||
|
||||
The Publisher API endpoints expect the token to be provided in a header of the form
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Authorization: token=YOUR_PUBLISHER_TOKEN
|
||||
```
