[NEW] Missing support for SSO login

[guss77]

Your Rocket.Chat.Android version: 1.0.5

While the Cordoba application allows login using SSO methods configured on a deployed Rocket.Chat server, the new Android application only supports password login

So far i see only Github, Google, Facebook, Twitter and Password based logins are implemented. By any chance, is there any work going on Gitlab SSO implementation?

We're going to handle all authentication methods soon.

The 'Cordova' apps had a troubling update to the README file saying that their apps will be deprecated at the end of March. For those of us using these auth methods, if deprecated means delisted, we're without a mobile app for our instance unless this is resolved.

@thef1sh We'll support all the authentication methods supported from Cordova by March, that's for sure.

Currently (Android 2+), we are supporting the authentication with:

• username + password
• email + password
• CAS
• LDAP
• Gitlab

Refs: #833 #871 #855 #965

We are working hard to put others (Github, Twitter, etc).

I can confirm version 2.0.0-alpha1 is working with CAS Authentication. Thanks!!

Update: Github, Google and Linkedin OAuth become supported.

Let's close this issue, every method now has it's own issue, many of them are already present in 2.0.0.
