Explore SSO - Automatically Login users into the Chat Room​

With SSO you can automatically log in users into the Chat Room, we offer two types of SSO:

  1. Basic SSO
  2. SSO using Auth Token

In Basic SSO you just have to pass the auth token as a query parameter, and the user will join the chat room. You cannot login moderators using this method and the user data is also not persisted.

In the SSO using Auth Token, you will have first create the user using the create user REST API, and then pass the authToken for the user as a parameter to the chat room. The user data is persisted and you can also login moderators using this method.
