Single sign on with Shopify Multipass

[shawaj]

Is there an easy way to integrate with Shopify Multipass?

Multipass

Thanks

From the looks of it you would need a custom auth plugin. Is there any reason you prefer this over existing OAuth 2 support they also provide?

[shawaj]

Does it offer the same functionality? If so then no other reason than I didn’t know about it!

Although it seems the oauth2 isn’t available on your lower hosted packages if I’m correct?

[sam (Sam Saffron)]

Yeah our generic OAuth 2 plugin would be business and up, multi pass would require enterprise though and custom work

[shawaj]

So I guess the best option is to go self hosted then.

Can we do OAuth2 on self hosted?

[codinghorror (Jeff Atwood)]

You can do literally anything self-hosted, provided you have sufficient time and engineering expertise!

[shawaj]

Sure but is there an OAuth plugin?

[j.jaffeux (Joffrey Jaffeux)]

Yes

Did you get this to work?

Note for future visitors, Shopify’s OAuth2 integration is for store-owners only, not end users

Shopify + Discourse: Account Connections

What I figured out was the fact that it isn’t possible to implement oauth for Shopify customers.

Multipass support might be possible with a custom plugin, but note it is not quite “SSO” in the conventional sense. I believe multipass goes the other way - it would allow people to click a link on the forum and be automatically logged into the shopify store.

This is where you want to talk to The Pavilion (@Angus) about an integration between Shopify and Discourse.

I saw you had an old marketplace post here

[Paid] Integrate Discourse, Shopify store, and our LMS payments

What would you like done? I would like to integrate our Discourse community, a new Shopify store, and our existing LMS system. We want to open a Shopify account that is skinned to look like our website (Rzim.org). We want to host it at store.rzim.org or similar. We want to sell RZIM Academy (LMS) courses through Shopify (utilizing Docebo’s pre-built integration: https://www.docebo.com/knowledge-base/docebo-for-shopify/) We want to sell RZIM gift cards that can be redeemed on the RZIM Shopify …

Did you/pavillion manage to get true SSO working with Shopify as the identity provider? If so, awesome! (and also I’d love to know which APIs you used to achieve it )

[outofthebox (Carson)]

Angus did pull it off, but by using Auth0 as the identity provider.

[david (David Taylor)]

Cool! Does Auth0 use Shopify as the identity provider? Or has Shopify been configured to use Auth0 as the identity provider?

[outofthebox (Carson)]

I’ll let @Angus step in with all the technical answers. He’s great to work with!

[angus (Angus McLeod)]

@david

Does Auth0 use Shopify as the identity provider? Or has Shopify been configured to use Auth0 as the identity provider?

Auth0 is the identity provider.

Multipass is a great option if it’s available, but as mentioned, it’s an enterprise solution, i.e. you need to have Shopify Plus. If you’re using Multipass and Auth0 (or another identity provider) this is relatively straightforward. As to integrating multipass directly with Discourse (i.e. the original question), you’d need to build a plugin, but it wouldn’t be too hard.

In @outofthebox’s case Multipass wasn’t available. I implemented it using a shopify theme, Auth0 Single Page App SDK and a number of Auth0 rules. It’s somewhat involved. I hope to publish it at some point, but we’ll see.

There is probably scope for a Shopify Discourse App actually which would make this somewhat easier. I started to build it at one point, but found a more efficient way for the goal at hand.

Apenas uma observação de que o código a que me referi acima está disponível aqui, juntamente com um readme detalhado.

GitHub - paviliondev/auth0-shopify-discourse: Integrate Auth0, Shopify and Discourse

Por favor, note os avisos no readme. Eu não recomendaria que você configurasse isso, a menos que entenda o que esta implementação está fazendo.

Pretendo fazer uma integração multipass (a solução oficial de SSO do Shopify) em um futuro próximo. Se você estiver interessado na integração multipass e quiser detalhes mais concretos, pode me enviar uma mensagem privada ou responder aqui. Se houver interesse significativo, eu o priorizarei.

Olá @angus, estamos interessados em uma integração multipass (estamos no Shopify Plus e planejando configurar o Discourse como uma comunidade para clientes), você poderia enviar mais detalhes e quando você acha que terá algo desenvolvido?
