Description

Authenticate via HTTP

Your SSO authenticates the user and either sets an environment variable in the request or an HTTP header and we use that as the authenticated user. The strategy to use is configurable.

Auth locally, if you must

Local authentication can still work, or not. You decide.

Manage group membership

Very configurable, including the ability to manage groups/roles, if you only want a subset of groups to reside in the Confluence user repository, something that is of interest to larger organizations and universities.
