potential module

I was wondering what the possibility of creating a module that users could use to create custom oauth connections, similar to what rocketchat/chat+ has.  Maybe something with some default oauth's and then an option to create a custom one....this would allow for more connections with many of the different board softwares out there.  Just a thought I had.  Maybe even an all in one module with all the connect apps in them with the option to enable which ones admins wish to use.  But in the end would also want an option to create custom connections as well.

    • Hello Ryan James !

      It looks too unsafe and / or troublesome for the admin(s). Oauth connections allows to exchange with secret login data between different sites and someone may post the link to his own site and take the important info from other users in your site.

      • The custom oauth would obviously be used betweens sites that work together and are trusted.....like i have sites that use the invision community software and they have an oauth server but there is no module to allow for connect between UNA and invison....as an example.  Say i have my UNA site, and my friend has a site using a different community software.  We both want users to be able to login without having to create a whole new login, creating an SSO type situation....currently that can only be done between una/dolphin and the other major players

        • Thank you for the suggestion, we'll consider it for the future:

          • Kudos to that. In our case, for example, we want to use Una as a Hub of services, connecting to other systems in our server as needed. For example, as a document management system we use NextCloud. It would be great if the users could access their NC accounts without having to login again.
