Google SSO setup

Google SSO setup requires a client ID and a client secret from the registered OAuth application. You can see the detailed documentation here. During OAuth app registration, make sure that homepage is set to https://demo-instance.cymph.io/ and auth callback to https://demo-instance.cymph.io/api/auth/callback/google Replace demo-instance.cymph.io with the FQDN of your installation.

GitHub SSO setup

GitHub SSO setup requires a client ID and a client secret from the registered OAuth application. Go to github.com and switch context to the desired organisation. Go to Developer Settings and then to OAuth apps to register a new OAuth application. During OAuth app registration, make sure that homepage is set to https://demo-instance.cymph.io/ and auth callback to https://demo-instance.cymph.io/api/auth/callback/github Replace demo-instance.cymph.io with the FQDN of your installation.

Entra ID SSO setup

The Entra ID SSO setup requires a Client ID, Tenant ID and a Client Secret from a registered application. 1. Create an App Registration
  • Go to portal.azure.com → Microsoft Entra ID → App registrations → New registration
  • Name it (e.g. “Cymph”)
  • Supported account types: Accounts in any organizational directory and personal Microsoft accounts (this matches tenantId: "common")
  • Redirect URI: Web → https://demo-instance.cymph.io/api/auth/callback/azure-ad
    • Replace demo-instance.cymph.io with the FQDN of your installation.
2. Get the Client ID and Tenant ID
  • After registration, on the Overview page copy:
    • Application (client) ID
    • Directory (tenant) ID → not needed since you’re using "common", but good to note
3. Create a Client Secret
  • Go to Certificates & secrets → New client secret
  • Set an expiry, click Add
  • Copy the Value immediately (it’s only shown once)
4. Set Required API Permissions (usually already set by default)
  • API permissions → ensure Microsoft Graph → User.Read is present (it is by default)
No admin consent needed for User.Read on a public app.
