User Authentication

+

Synapse supports multiple methods of authenticating users, either out-of-the-box or through custom pluggable +authentication modules.

+

Included in Synapse is support for authenticating users via:

+
    +
  • A username and password.
    • +
  • An email address and password.
    • +
  • Single Sign-On through the SAML, Open ID Connect or CAS protocols.
    • +
  • JSON Web Tokens.
    • +
  • An administrator's shared secret.
    • +
+

Synapse can additionally be extended to support custom authentication schemes through optional "password auth provider" +modules.
