# Authentication guide - SAML
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
*Note:* This guide was written before the renaming. Just replace `HackMD` with `HedgeDoc` in your mind 😃 thanks!
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The basic procedure is the same as the case of OneLogin which is mentioned in [OneLogin-Guide](./saml-onelogin.md). If
 | 
						|
you want to match your IdP, you can use more configurations as below.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- If your IdP accepts metadata XML of the service provider to ease configuration, use this url to download metadata XML:
 | 
						|
  `{{your-serverurl}}/auth/saml/metadata`  
 | 
						|
  *Note:* If not accessible from IdP, download to local once and upload to IdP.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Change the value of `issuer`, `identifierFormat` to match your IdP.
 | 
						|
  - `issuer`: A unique id to identify the application to the IdP, which is the base URL of your HedgeDoc as default
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  - `identifierFormat`: A format of unique id to identify the user of IdP, which is the format based on email address as
 | 
						|
    default. It is recommend that you use as below.
 | 
						|
    - `urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress` (default)
 | 
						|
    - `urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:unspecified`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  - `config.json`:
 | 
						|
    ```javascript
 | 
						|
    {
 | 
						|
      "production": {
 | 
						|
        "saml": {
 | 
						|
          /* omitted */
 | 
						|
          "issuer": "myhedgedoc"
 | 
						|
          "identifierFormat": "urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:unspecified"
 | 
						|
        }
 | 
						|
      }
 | 
						|
    }
 | 
						|
    ```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  - environment variables
 | 
						|
    ```shell
 | 
						|
    CMD_SAML_ISSUER=myhedgedoc
 | 
						|
    CMD_SAML_IDENTIFIERFORMAT=urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:unspecified
 | 
						|
    ```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Change mapping of attribute names to customize the displaying user name and email address to match your IdP.
 | 
						|
  - `attribute`: A dictionary to map attribute names
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  - `attribute.id`: A primary key of user table for your HedgeDoc
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  - `attribute.username`: Attribute name of displaying user name on HedgeDoc
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  - `attribute.email`: Attribute name of email address, which will be also used for Gravatar
 | 
						|
    - *Note:* Default value of all attributes is NameID of SAML response, which is email address if `identifierFormat`
 | 
						|
      is default.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  - `config.json`:
 | 
						|
    ```json
 | 
						|
    {
 | 
						|
      "production": {
 | 
						|
        "saml": {
 | 
						|
          /* omitted */
 | 
						|
          "attribute": {
 | 
						|
            "id": "sAMAccountName",
 | 
						|
            "username": "displayName",
 | 
						|
            "email": "mail"
 | 
						|
          }
 | 
						|
        }
 | 
						|
      }
 | 
						|
    }
 | 
						|
    ```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  - environment variables
 | 
						|
    ```shell
 | 
						|
    CMD_SAML_ATTRIBUTE_ID=sAMAccountName
 | 
						|
    CMD_SAML_ATTRIBUTE_USERNAME=nickName
 | 
						|
    CMD_SAML_ATTRIBUTE_EMAIL=mail
 | 
						|
    ```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- If you want to control permission by group membership, add group attribute name and required group (allowed) or
 | 
						|
  external group (not allowed).
 | 
						|
  - `groupAttribute`: An attribute name of group membership
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  - `requiredGroups`: Group names array for allowed access to HedgeDoc. Use vertical bar to separate for environment
 | 
						|
    variables.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  - `externalGroups`: Group names array for not allowed access to HedgeDoc. Use vertical bar to separate for environment
 | 
						|
    variables.
 | 
						|
    - *Note:* Evaluates `externalGroups` first
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  - `config.json`:
 | 
						|
    ```json
 | 
						|
    {
 | 
						|
      "production": {
 | 
						|
        "saml": {
 | 
						|
          /* omitted */
 | 
						|
          "groupAttribute": "memberOf",
 | 
						|
          "requiredGroups": [ "hedgedoc-users", "board-members" ],
 | 
						|
          "externalGroups": [ "temporary-staff" ]
 | 
						|
        }
 | 
						|
      }
 | 
						|
    }
 | 
						|
    ```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  - environment variables
 | 
						|
    ```shell
 | 
						|
    CMD_SAML_GROUPATTRIBUTE=memberOf
 | 
						|
    CMD_SAML_REQUIREDGROUPS=hedgedoc-users|board-members
 | 
						|
    CMD_SAML_EXTERNALGROUPS=temporary-staff
 | 
						|
    ```
