+### Shibboleth with OIDC Plugin
+
+[Shibboleth](https://www.shibboleth.net/) is an open Standard IdP solution widely used by Universities.
+

+2. Create a new config on the IdP Side, ensure that the `client_id` and `client_secret`
+   are randomly generated data.
+```json
+{
+    "client_id": "SOME-CLIENT-ID",
+    "client_secret": "SOME-SUPER-SECRET-SECRET",
+    "response_types": ["code"],
+    "grant_types": ["authorization_code"],
+    "scope": "openid profile email",
+    "redirect_uris": ["https://[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback"]
+}
+```
