Ruby on Rails Single Sign-On (SSO) Configuration


miniOrange's Ruby on Rails Single Sign-On (SSO) solution leverages JSON Web Tokens (JWT) to provide robust security for seamless access to your Ruby on Rails application. This streamlined authentication process ensures users can effortlessly log in with a single set of credentials.

Additionally, our solution supports Rails SAML IDP, enhancing the security and versatility of your authentication system. You can also enhance user convenience by enabling social login options, allowing users to access applications securely through popular providers like Facebook, Twitter, Google, or LinkedIn. This comprehensive SSO solution ensures a frictionless and secure user experience.

With miniOrange Ruby on Rails SSO, you get:

  • Seamless user login experience.
  • Endless customizations to your login forms and pages.
  • Simplified customer or user on-boarding.


Connect with External Source of Users


miniOrange provides user authentication from various external sources, which can be Directories (like ADFS, Microsoft Active Directory, OpenLDAP, AWS etc), Identity Providers (like Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, AWS), and many more. You can configure your existing directory/user store or add users in miniOrange.



Follow the step-by-step guide given below for Ruby on Rails Single Sign-On (SSO):

1. Configure Ruby on Rails in miniOrange

  • Go to Apps and click on Add Application button.
  • Ruby on Rails Single Sign-On (SSO) add app

  • In Choose Application, select JWT from the application type dropdown.
  • Ruby on Rails SSO: Configure JWT app type

  • In the next step, search for Ruby on Rails application from the list. If your application is not found, search for JWT App and you can set up your Application.
  • Configure JWT application: Search Ruby on Rails JWT application

  • You can configure the following details in the application:
  • Custom App Name Enter the Application Name of your choice, and add a description if required.
    Redirect-URL Enter the Redirect-URL (i.e. the endpoint where you want to send/post your JWT). You can add multiple redirect URLs by separating them with a ‘;’. E.g. abc.com;xyz.com
    Primary Identity Provider (optional) Select your Identity Source from the dropdown. You can select miniOrange here as default IDP.
    Ruby on Rails SSO: JWT app details

  • Click on Save to complete the configuration.
  • Click on Edit in the select menu against your app.
  • Ruby on Rails SSO: Edit app

  • You can get further details about your recently added JWT application:
  • Client ID If your application provides its own client ID, you can configure it by clicking on the Customize button.
    App Secret You can find App Secret by clicking on the copy icon. This is used in the HS265 Signature algorithm for generating the signature.
    Signature Algorithm Select RSA-SHA256 as your signature algorithm from the dropdown.
    Primary Identity Provider Select the default Identity Provider from the dropdown for the application. If not selected, users will see the screen of default IdP (miniOrange)
    Redirect URL Enter your app’s URL here (This is the URL where you will receive your JWT.) <app-login-url>/?id_token=<token>
    eg: https://localhost:3000/home/?id_token=eyefb43bf.whfeeg.hfwf
    In this example, https://localhost:3000/home is my app’s URL where id_token will be posted after authentication.
  • Scroll down to Endpoints.
  • Ruby on Rails SSO: Search JWT application

  • SSO URL for using miniOrange as Authentication Source: If you are going to store users in miniOrange and use miniOrange as your authentication source,then, copy and save this URL somewhere as it will be used in further steps.
  • SSO URL for using External Providers as Authentication Source: If you are going to use any External Provider as your authentication source, then, Copy this one and save somewhere as it will be used in further step.

2. Adding Script on Ruby on Rails's End

  • To enable SSO on Ruby on Rails's end, all you need to do is add a Single Sign-On URL and Customized Script to retrieve the required attributes from the JWT token.
  • Please click here to contact us for the script which is to be added.
