Flutter Single Sign-On (SSO)


Flutter SSO by miniOrange has developed a ready to use Single Sign-On solution for Flutter Apps. Flutter is a cross-platform framework that allows you to create apps for a variety of devices with just one code. miniOrange allows you to setup Single Sign-On(SSO) into using two standard protocols like SAML 2.0 and JSON web Tokens (JWT). Flutter SSO with JWT is achieved by protocol brokering between JWT and SAML. Flutter Apps has support for SSO using JSON Web Token (JWT) tokens. miniOrange allows your users to Single Sign-On into Flutter Apps by verifying Identity with your existing SAML 2.0 compliant Identity Provider and passing JWT tokens to Flutter Apps.

Connect with External Source of Users


miniOrange provides user authentication from various external sources, which can be Directories (like ADFS, Microsoft Active Directory, Azure AD, OpenLDAP, Google, AWS Cognito etc), Identity Providers (like Shibboleth, Ping, Okta, OneLogin, KeyCloak), Databases (like MySQL, Maria DB, PostgreSQL) and many more.



Prerequisites

  • Download the flutter_jwt_connector from here.
  • Copy the path of the flutter_jwt_connector and add it as a package in the pubspec.yaml file of your project.
  • Add jose:0.3.2 as a package.
  • dependencies: flutter: sdk: flutter flutter_jwt_connector: path: D:/sdk-and-connectors/flutter_jwt_connector jose: ^0.3.2
  • Install all the dependencies using
  • flutter pub get

Follow the Step-by-Step Guide given below for Flutter Single Sign-On (SSO)

1. Configure Flutter in miniOrange

  • Login to miniOrange Admin Console.
  • Go to Apps Click on Add Application button.
  • Flutter  Single Sign-On (SSO) add app

  • In JWT App click on Create App.
  • Flutter  Single Sign On SSO add app

    Flutter Single Sign-On (SSO): saml jwt app

  • In Add Apps tab enter the values and click on Save.
    Custom Application Name The name of your flutter application
    Redirect-URL Enter the app URL where you want to handle the JWT token.
    Identity Source You need to select the user store or the external IDP where the user accounts will be stored.
  • Flutter Single Sign-On (SSO): add jwt app

  • To configure App secret go to Edit against your configured app, Apps>>Select your app>>Edit
  • Flutter Single Sign-On (SSO): edit-jwt-app

    Flutter Single Sign-On (SSO): edit-jwt-app

  • You can download the certificate by clicking on ‘certificate’ in the options of your application. You will need the certificate in the following steps.
  • Flutter Single Sign-On (SSO): download certificate

  • Now, You can access Flutter App using IDP credentials through the Single-sign-on URL as shown in image above.

2. Configure the plugin in your application

  • Select a component that will be responsible for verifying the JWT token most preferably the login component.
  • Import the JWTBuilder class from the flutter_jwt_connector. From the path to which it was moved in step 1 of Pre-requisites.
  • import 'package:flutter_jwt_connector/jwt_builder.dart';
  • You can add a button on your login screen to redirect to the SSO URL. You can get this SSO URL from this step of Configure your application in miniOrange.
  • ElevatedButton(onPressed: () => sso(), child: const Text("Login")) sso() { const url = ''; // "https://swapnilj.miniorange.in/moas/broker/login/jwt/21582?client_id=s9BIi073EBW qyoAJ&redirect_uri=http://localhost:4000/" html.window.open(url, "_self"); } Login button

  • On Clicking the SSO button the user will be redirected to the miniOrange portal for authentication Then the JWT token is returned to your application to the redirect URL you have set while adding your application in miniOrange. In the following steps, we will be verifying this token and retrieving the user details.
  • Retrieve the id_token from the url and pass it down into the login widget
  • Retrieve id token

  • You need to add your x509 certificate that you can get from this step of configure your application in miniOrange.
  • class Login extends StatefulWidget { String? token; Login({Key? key, this.token}) : super(key: key); @override State createState() => _Login(); } class _Login extends State { String x509Cert = "< PLACE YOUR CERTIFICATE STRING HERE >"; @override void initState() { // check if token exists and login if (widget.token != null) { login(); } super.initState(); } login() async { JWTBuilder jwtBuilder = JWTBuilder(); // Initialize the JWT jwtBuilder.parseJwt(widget.token); // set the secret that was shared by your IdP jwtBuilder.setSecret(x509Cert); bool verified = false; Map payload; try { // Compare the hashed jwt with the one received verified = await jwtBuilder.verifyJwt(); } catch (err) { if (kDebugMode) { print(err); } } if (verified) { // Once you find the JWT is verified, you can go ahead and get the data from JWT payload = jwtBuilder.getPayload(); String username = payload['username']; String email = payload['email']; // You can create a user session here if required and navigate to the home page } }
  • Now if the token is verified, the payload which consists of the User details can be saved in local storage or serialized into a User Class and the user now verified can be redirected to the home screen of your application.

3. Configure Your User Directory

miniOrange provides user authentication from various external sources, which can be Directories (like ADFS, Microsoft Active Directory, Azure AD, OpenLDAP, Google, AWS Cognito etc), Identity Providers (like Okta, Shibboleth, Ping, OneLogin, KeyCloak), Databases (like MySQL, Maria DB, PostgreSQL) and many more. You can configure your existing directory/user store or add users in miniOrange.
