## What This (admittedly massive) PR updates the "physical" documentation structure and fixes url inconsistencies and SEO problems reported by marketing. The main points are: - remove or move directories : advanced, user_guide, deploy, api - move the files contained within to the appropriate one of topics, how-to, tutorials, or reference - update internal doc links and product links to the content - create client-side redirects for all the urls that have changed. A number of the files have been renamed in small ways to better match their url and to make them easier to find. Additionally, the top-level api directory has been moved to /reference/api/legacy/unleash (see the discussion points section for more on this). ## Why When moving our doc structure to diataxis a while back, we left the "physical' files lying where they were, because it didn't matter much to the new structure. However, that did introduce some inconsistencies with where you place docs and how we organize them. There's also the discrepancies in whether urls us underscores or hyphens (which isn't necessarily the same as their file name), which has been annoying me for a while, but now has also been raised by marketing as an issue in terms of SEO. ## Discussion points The old, hand-written API docs have been moved from /api to /reference/api/legacy/unleash. There _is_ a /reference/api/unleash directory, but this is being populated by the OpenAPI plugin, and mixing those could only cause trouble. However, I'm unsure about putting /legacy/ in the title, because the API isn't legacy, the docs are. Maybe we could use another path? Like /old-docs/ or something? I'd appreciate some input on this.

How to add SSO with OpenID Connect |
:::note Availability
The Single-Sign-On capability is only available for customers on the Enterprise subscription. Check out the Unleash plans for details.
:::
Introduction
In this guide we will do a deep dive on the Single-Sign-On (SSO) using the OpenID Connect protocol and connect it with Okta as IdP. Unleash supports other identity providers and protocols, have a look at all available Single-Sign-On options
Basic configuration
Step 1: Sign-in to Unleash
In order to configure SSO you will need to log in to the Unleash instance with a user that have "Admin" role. If you are self-hosting Unleash then a default user will be automatically created the first time you start Unleash:
- username:
admin
- password:
unleash4all
Step 2: Navigate to SSO configuration
Unleash enterprise supports multiple authentication providers, and we provide in depth guides for each of them. To find them navigate to "Admin" => "Single-Sign-On" section.
Step 3: Okta with OpenID Connect
Open a new tab/window in your browser and sign in to your Okta account. We will need to create a new Application which will hold the settings we need for Unleash.
a) Create new Okta application
Navigate to “Admin/Applications” and click the “Add Apps” button.
Then click “Create Application” and choose a new “OIDC - OpenID Connect” application, and choose application type "Web Application" and click create.
b) Configure Application Integration
Give you application a name. And set the Sign-in redirect URI to:
https://[region].app.unleash-hosted.com/[instanceName]/auth/oidc/callback
(In a self-hosted scenario the URL must match your UNLEASH_URL
configuration)
You can also configure the optional Sign-out redirect URIs: https://[region].app.unleash-hosted.com/[instanceName]/
Save your new application and your will ge the required details you need to configure the Unleash side of things:
c) Configure OpenID Connect provider in Unleash
Navigate to Unleash and insert the details (Discover URL, Client Id and Client Secret) in to Unleash.
Pleas note that the
Discover URL
must be a valid URL and must include thehttps://
prefix. For example: https://dev-example-okta.com is a valid discovery URL.
You may also choose to “Auto-create users”. This will make Unleash automatically create new users on the fly the first time they sign-in to Unleash with the given SSO provider (JIT). If you decide to automatically create users in Unleash you must also provide a list of valid email domains. You must also decide which global Unleash role they will be assigned (Editor role will be the default).
Step 4: Verify
Logout of Unleash and sign back in again. You should now be presented with the "Sign in with OpenID Connect" option. Click the button and follow the sign-in flow. If all goes well you should be successfully signed in to Unleash.
(If something is not working you can still sign-in with username and password).
Success!
