SSO Tokens implementation

These are instructions on how to generate Single Sign-On tokens on your server. These token can be used to authenticate your users with
bookafy.

Here’s how it works:
To find your private key, login to partner dashboard as a White label Admin and
Store your private key on your server and don’t share it.
When a user wants to use the bookafy, send a request to your server to generate an SSO token.
On your server, generate a token using the snippet below.
Pass the token back to your app
We’ll use that token to authenticate your user.

1. Install a JWT library:
We use JSON Web Tokens to securely authenticate your users. First, install the appropriate JWT library for your server.
sudo gem install jwt

2. Generate tokens on your server:
Following sample code is in ruby.
require ‘jwt’
PrivateKey = ‘UNIQUE PRIVATE KEY’

3. SSO Signup:
You’ll create on your side for signup.
def createBookafyToken(user)
userData = {
iss: “abcd” , # or abcd
exp: Time.now.to_i + 900, # Time.now(in seconds) + 15 min(in seconds)
iat: Time.now.to_i, # Time.now(in seconds)
business_name: user.business_name,
email: user.email,
name: user.name,
time_zone: time_zone # default Pacific Time (US & Canada)
}
sso_token = JWT.encode(userData, PrivateKey, ‘HS276’)
end
After generating the token, You hit on http://app.examplescheduler.com/sso/signup?token=#{sso_token}
You’ll get in response.
Success Response:
Code: 201
User will be created.
Failure Response:
Send an error in response.
Error Response sample (in json):
{“status”:”forbidden”,”error”:”Validation failed: User email has already been taken”}
Once user created successfully, you’ll generate other token for login.

4. SSO login:
You’ll create on your side for sign in.
def createBookafyToken(user)
userData = {
email: user.email,
iss: “abcd”, # or abcd
logout_redirect_url: ‘https://xyz.com’,
exp: Time.now.to_i + 900,# Time.now(in seconds) + 15 min(in seconds)
iat: Time.now.to_i # Time.now(in seconds)
}
sso_token = JWT.encode(userData, PrivateKey, ‘HS276’)
end
http://app.exampleschedule.com/sso/login?token=#{sso_token}
You’ll get in response.
Success Case:
Code: 200
Redirected to home page if calendar connected otherwise redirected to calendar page.
Failure Response:
Send error message in response
Validation: If user not exist or you are trying with different iss
Code: 404
Error Response sample (in json)
{“status”:”forbidden”,”error”:”Validation failed: User email has already been taken”}
Note:
On logout, When User logout from the account and it will be redirected to logout_redirect_url
