The original sentence is a bit unclear it's talking about mapping to the
same user account *across time* - rather than a situation where a value
might map to multiple accounts at the same time (which should be
impossible for DNs).
Some installations will change `dn` when a user marries, and also for
Active Directory and various other LDAP providers I've checked,
there's often a better value to use.
Adds support for syncing group memberships for a user when logging in
via SAML. The list of group memberships is passed by the IdP in the
zulip_groups SAML attribute in the SAMLResponse.
This is a follow-up to #32693, which missed a bunch of places due to
varying ways of typing Azure AD. (Azure AD, Azure Active Directory etc.)
In the diff there's an apparent inconsistency with renaming, in some
places renaming to just "Microsoft Entra ID" and in others
"Microsoft Entra ID (AzureAD)".
The idea is to add (AzureAD) in ordinary documentation, as it can help
clarity since many people still think of this as AzureAD, while sticking
with brevity and cleanliness of just using the official name in
marketing focused material.
Microsoft has been renaming AzureAD to Entra ID. Though both names still
seem to function, even if unofficially, so this mostly renames to `Entra
ID (AzureAD)` to reference both for clarity.
Updates descriptive text that refer to Zulip channels in the
`docs/production` files to use channel instead of stream.
Part of the stream to channel rename project.
That specific piece of the instructions makes it sound like /auth/ is
surely supposed to be there in the URL. But newer versions of Keycloak
don't have it - so mention that explicitly, not to create a wrong
expectation.
The other option would be to run the cron job ourselves, but I feel
like different organizations with different policies might prefer very
different frequencies; daily/hourly, and it's not easy to make that
configurable with a cron file declared in puppet.
Fixes#27866.
The original behavior of this setting was to disable LDAP
authentication for any realms not configured to use it. This was an
arbitrary choice, and its only value was to potentially help catch
typos for users who are lazy about testing their configuration.
Since it makes it a very inconvenient to potentially host multiple
organizations with different LDAP configurations, remove that
behavior.
This fixes the explanation of the setting's syntax to be more precise
(which doesn't mean "easily understandable" - because the setting is
a bit tricky) as well as an example to illustrate it.
- Updates instances of "private message", "PM", and "private_message",
excluding historical references in `overview/changelog.md`.
- Also excludes `/docs/translating` since we would need new
translations for "direct messages" and "DMs".
This is a useful improvement in general for making correct
LogoutRequests to Idps and a necessary one to make SP-initiated logout
fully work properly in the desktop application. During desktop auth
flow, the user goes through the browser, where they log in through their
IdP. This gives them a logged in browser session at the IdP. However,
SAML SP-initiated logout is fully conducted within the desktop
application. This means that proper information needs to be given to the
the IdP in the LogoutRequest to let it associate the LogoutRequest with
that logged in session that was established in the browser. SessionIndex
is exactly the tool for that in the SAML spec.
This gives more flexibility on a server with multiple organizations and
SAML IdPs. Such a server can have some organizations handled by IdPs
with SLO set up, and some without it set up. In such a scenario, having
a generic True/False server-wide setting is insufficient and instead
being able to specify the IdPs/orgs for SLO is needed.
Closes#20084
This is the flow that this implements:
1. A logged-in user clicks "Logout".
2. If they didn't auth via SAML, just do normal logout. Otherwise:
3. Form a LogoutRequest and redirect the user to
https://idp.example.com/slo-endpoint?SAMLRequest=<LogoutRequest here>
4. The IdP validates the LogoutRequest, terminates its own user session
and redirects the user to
https://thezuliporg.example.com/complete/saml/?SAMLRequest=<LogoutResponse>
with the appropriate LogoutResponse. In case of failure, the
LogoutResponse is expected to express that.
5. Zulip validates the LogoutResponse and if the response is a success
response, it executes the regular Zulip logout and the full flow is
finished.
We will hopefully be able to just this in #16208 to document what
users need to configure in order to do this manually, but the content
here will be useful for anyone who hasn't set that up regardless.
This adds a new endpoint /jwt/fetch_api_key that accepts a JWT and can
be used to fetch API keys for a certain user. The target realm is
inferred from the request and the user email is part of the JWT.
A JSON containing an user API key, delivery email and (optionally)
raw user profile data is returned in response.
The profile data in the response is optional and can be retrieved by
setting the POST param "include_profile" to "true" (default=false).

This uses the myst_heading_anchors option to automatically generate
header anchors and make Sphinx aware of them. See
https://myst-parser.readthedocs.io/en/latest/syntax/optional.html#auto-generated-header-anchors.
Note: to be compatible with GitHub, MyST-Parser uses a slightly
different convention for .md fragment links than .html fragment links
when punctuation is involved. This does not affect the generated
fragment links in the HTML output.
Fixes#13264.

We previously had a convention of redundantly including the directory
in relative links to reduce mistakes when moving content from one file
to another. However, these days we have a broken link checker in
test-documentation, and after #21237, MyST-Parser will check relative
links (including fragments) when you run build-docs.

This replaces the TERMS_OF_SERVICE and PRIVACY_POLICY settings with
just a POLICIES_DIRECTORY setting, in order to support settings (like
Zulip Cloud) where there's more policies than just those two.
With minor changes by Eeshan Garg.
OIDC config features a get_secret call (so it requires adding an import)
as well as having a bunch of its instructions in the form of comments on
the various keys of the config dict - thus users should really update
settings.py to fetch all of that.
