Application authentication

    Synergy offers OAuth2 / OpenID-Connect based SSO for the connected applications, acting as a gateway between the ID provider and the application.

    See more about application authentication in Synergy workshop guide section 7. Implement authentication.

    Make sure the session timeout of your application isn't too large. In addition to the usual security concerns, this is also important because the user might remain logged in and able to use the application even after the Synergy subscription expires.
