Custom identity provider

Custom IdP overview

AM is designed to be extended based on a pluggable module architecture. You can develop your own identity provider using a plugin, and provide an authentication method to register your users so they can use AM.

Test an identity provider

The fastest way to test your newly created identity provider is to request an OAuth2 access token, as described in ID Token. If you successfully retrieve an access token, your identity provider is all set.
