Configure miniOrange Single Sign-On (SSO) with Joomla OAuth Client Plugin

This guide will walk you through configuring our Joomla OAuth Client extension to enable secure login with miniOrange. By the end of this setup, your users will be able to sign into your Joomla site using their miniOrange credentials, providing a seamless and secure Single Sign-On (SSO) experience.

This integration delegates the authentication process to miniOrange, a robust identity platform. This means you can centralize user management and utilize miniOrange's advanced security features directly for your Joomla site. Our extension acts as the bridge, handling the complex OAuth 2.0 protocol behind the scenes.


This guide will walk you through configuring our Joomla OAuth Client extension to connect with miniOrange as your Identity Provider (IdP). This setup enables secure Single Sign-On (SSO), allowing your users to log into your Joomla site using their existing miniOrange credentials.

This integration is designed for organizations that use miniOrange as their central identity and access management solution.
