Hello Community.

I think it, would be a great expasion of the possible usecases of tw if we could integrate it into LearningManagementSystems.
And it really could make LearningManagementSystems a better place.
I think OAuth   and OpenID-Connect could be a Key to this.
The first step would be to build a saving mechanism using either...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OAuth
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenID_Connect

I really would love this because it really could make LearningManagementSystems a better place.

Best Wishes Jan

Ciao Jan

Nice query! Being able use   OAuth   and OpenID to connect is a great aim.

I believe Jed did some work and may have some thoughts on the issue?

Also Joshua Fotnany!

I am simply commenting I'd like to understand how to do it myself. Lots of online systems use it (e.g. Twitter) so better understanding it would be great!

Best wishes
TT

Hi TT,
just like me! I learned theese words some months ago and I am convinced that this could be something truely important for TW, I am always happy to see you highlighting a thread!

Hi Mohamed,
Single-Sign-on alas is very specific, I could not really understand what mechanism is used there. My goal today would be to integrate TW into a plattform called IServ.eu which is used in many german schools. In the long run it would be great to use it in Moodle. If you once worked with TW the Moodle-Wiki is no fun. Moodle allows user specific sign-on to etherpads...which also depend on node.js.
Perhaps I should have a look there.

Best wishes Jan

Dear all,

I'm keenly interested in variations on this LMS-integration theme as well. I don't have the savvy or the skills to understand the obstacles (which are both institutional and technical), but I do know that having moodle, or SSO / ActiveDomain integration, would completely transform the role of TW5 solutions in education.

Hi Saq, Hi all
thank you for pointing me to this, it took me some time to digest the new knowledge.
Booth solutions need a node installation ... and becaus my internet-host has a little wierd implementation of node (without terminal) i am still fighting to get node to work.
https://github.com/kunxi/tw5-auth  seems more versatile but I have to admit so far this is beyond my abilites.

For educational use-cases would be perfect to have a mechanism like that integrated in either Arlen's or Jed's readymade-server solution.
Jed already seems to have some mechanism https://github.com/OokTech/TW5-Login

So thanks I will keep to this but for me it might take some time to find out how this could work...

Best wishes Jan
