Let me see if I can dig one up, nothing off the top of my head.
SAML to me is very much like X509, it seems overwhelming and has a million moving parts but if all you need to do is generate webserver certs you can ignore 99% of X509. Same thing with SAML.
Anyway, https://simplesamlphp.org/docs/stable/simplesamlphp-sp.html
"Integrating authentication with your own application"
Looks like it's really just a few lines of code. You can require specific attributes (like user level!) be in the SAML response and access those in this array $as->getAttributes();
It seems like a fairly easy drop in for the auth system you've already written.

I've looked at simplesaml a few times, but complex auth is a little outside of my usual field so I've never been comfortable trying to implement it without the possibility of making a horrible mess and causing security issues.
Our auth system is actually quite simple, and it's probably trivial for someone who actually understands SAML to implement, just... getting it wrong would be bad. :)
Do you know of any platforms with relatively simple auth systems that have simplesamlphp implemented already? Perhaps seeing existing implementations would be useful.
I do think the MutualTLS seems very simple to implement though, unless I'm missing something!

SimpleSAMLphp is what I see commonly in open source projects https://simplesamlphp.org/
We'd be willing test subjects (and have substantial IdP/SP knowledge) if you need it.

Hi Chris,
We don't do SAML yet, though it's on my list try to implement at some point.
I'm actually not familiar with Mutual TLS, a brief conversation with our future overlord at OpenAI suggests it's client cert auth and seems to be primarily handled by the web server, and we just "accept" the username the webserver provides to us? This seems incredibly simple.
If I'm not being hallucinated at (a strong possibility) and it does work how it was explained, I think we should be able to implement a MutualTLS auth module.

Is there any way to setup SAML or Mutual TLS on the Observium server?
