Sorry to re-open this, but I’m trying to make sure I understand what was (or wasn’t) done to solve the use cases presented earlier.
I’m also on SSO. With a Discourse hosted site. We want to have a private forum where we can invite people select people, but unfortunately it’s not tied to a parameter we can identify and pass via SSO.
We want to upload a list of email addresses that, if/when a user signs in for the first time they are auto-added to the group. We are using the domain solution for some groups, but that wouldn’t apply in this case.
It looks like this was discussed, but it’s unclear to me which solution was ultimately chosen. I tested with an email address that was registered in our main userbase, but hadn’t logged into our discourse site to initiate the SSO. When we logged in with that ID the account created but he’s not in the group.
