Social Provider

Integration Tutorials: Social Overview

The social provider for the Tyk Identity Broker is a thin wrapper around the excellent goth social auth library, modified slightly to work with a multi-tenant structure. The social provider should provide seamless integration with:

• Bitbucket
• Digital Ocean
• Dropbox
• GitHub
• Google+
• Linkedin
• Twitter
• Salesforce

The social provider is ideal for SSO-style logins for the Dashboard or for the Portal. For certain providers (mainly Google+), where email addresses are returned as part of the user data, a constraint can be added to validate the users domain. This is useful for Google For Business Apps users that want to grant access to their domain users for the Dashboard.
