Whatever means are chosen, the plugin simply passes all options to omniauth-saml. See [their configuration
documentation](https://github.com/omniauth/omniauth-saml#usage) for further details.
The three options are mutually exclusive. I.e. if settings are already provided via the `configuration.yml` file, settings in a `settings.yml` file will be ignored. Environment variables will override the `configuration.yml` based configuration, though.
The options are mutually exclusive. I.e. if settings are already provided via ENV variables, settings in a `settings.yml` file will be ignored. If you decide to save settings in the database, they will override any ENV variables you might have set.
In your OpenProject packaged installation, you can modify the `/opt/openproject/config/configuration.yml` file. This will contains the complete OpenProject configuration and can be extended to also contain metadata settings and connection details for your SSO identity provider.
In your OpenProject packaged installation, you can modify the `/opt/openproject/config/plugins/auth_saml/settings.yml` file. This will contains the complete OpenProject configuration and can be extended to also contain metadata settings and connection details for your SSO identity provider.
Everything belonging to the `saml` key will be made available to the plugin. The first key below `saml` can be freely chosen (`my_saml` in the example).
The following is an exemplary file with a set of common settings:
# IF your SSL certificate on your SSO is not trusted on this machine, you need to add it here
#idp_cert: "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\n ..... SSL CERTIFICATE HERE ...-----END CERTIFICATE-----\n"
# Otherwise, the certificate fingerprint must be added
# Either `idp_cert` or `idp_cert_fingerprint` must be present!
idp_cert_fingerprint: "E7:91:B2:E1:...",
# Replace with your single sign on URL
# For example: "https://sso.example.com/saml/singleSignOn"
idp_sso_target_url: "<YOURSSOURL>"
# Replace with your single sign out URL
# or comment out
# For example: "https://sso.example.com/saml/proxySingleLogout"
idp_slo_target_url: "<YOURSSOlogoutURL>"
# Attribute map in SAML
attribute_statements:
# What attribute in SAML maps to email (default: mail)
email: ['mail']
# What attribute in SAML maps to the user login (default: uid)
login: ['uid']
# What attribute in SAML maps to the first name (default: givenName)
first_name: ['givenName']
# What attribute in SAML maps to the last name (default: sn)
last_name: ['sn']
```
Be sure to choose the correct indentation and base key. The `saml` key should be indented two spaces (and all other keys accordingly) and the configuration should belong to the `production` group.
Be sure to choose the correct indentation and base key. The items below the `saml` key should be indented two spaces. You will get an YAML parsing error otherwise when trying to start OpenProject.

Once on the console you can set the same values as named in the `configuration.yml` file.
Once on the console you can set the same values as named in the `settings.yml` file, however they need to be nested within a 'providers' key as follows.
