Are there any plans on adding oauth 2.0 SSO functionality? We are looking to integrate with an app that requires the updated version for SSO.

Thor Kellin As I understand it, you are building a mobile app for the XND Web Office using BuildFire. Is that accurate? If so, are these the documentation pages you're attempting to use?

Thor Kellin If the assumptions listed in my post above are correct, then this is the answer:

It is true that if we had OAuth available for you right now, then you could just have the mobile app load a login page that we host and then it would redirect back after successful login. That is not currently supported.

However, our public API does have authentication endpoints. So, yes, you could use it "as-is" in your mobile app to allow users to log in. To do so, you would provide a login form that uses the public API to check usernames and passwords. That second article above from github actually describes the OAuth spec in pretty good detail.

Which Public API should you use?
