Joomla OAuth Client Integration with Salesforce Single Sign-On (SSO)

The Joomla OAuth Client plugin uses the OAuth protocol to provide secure access to Joomla sites by enabling Salesforce as the OAuth provider, simplifying the login process. This integration allows users to log in with their Salesforce credentials, eliminating the need for multiple passwords. The plugin also features user profile attribute mapping, and role mapping for access based on organizational roles.
