Topic: Single Sign-On of ConfTool and Joomla using the REST interface

Does ConfTool provide a single sign-on mechanism with other systems, e.g. Joomla?
Sorry, but there is currently no single sign-on mechanism such as OpenID, or similar, implemented.

However, you can use the REST interface of ConfTool Pro to access available users and verify login data from other systems.

The REST API is described here:
https://www.conftool.net/ctforum/index.php/topic,280.0.html

  • In the first attachment you can find a documentation on how to use the login mechanism.
  • The second attachment provides a module that can be used with Joomla 2.5 to allow users registered in ConfTool to log into your Joomla installation. Please note that we do not provide (official) support for this module, but we are grateful for any feedback.

We would like to thank Prof. Dr. Stefan Ufer for providing the Joomla 2.5 module.
