Use Discourse as an identity provider (SSO, DiscourseConnect)

I want to stop using our website to serve as the SSO for Discourse and instead use Discourse’s built-in login tools to limit access to certain materials on our website.

I think the right tool to use is: GitHub - discourse/discourse-auth-proxy: An http proxy that uses the DiscourseConnect protocol to authenticate users

I haven’t found any extensive instructions on how to use it.

Can I install that in the same DigitalOcean droplet as our Discourse site, or do I need to host it somewhere else?

Edit: bolded my question :slight_smile:
