Logout in OAuth and SAML Authentication

[tokapatrik]

Hi everyone,

I would like to ask for help with the authentication solution for my application. The basic plan is to use Snipe-IT as the backend and create a React frontend that will interact with the Snipe-IT API. However, I need an additional feature: I would like to use an auth provider, specifically Keycloak.

I successfully deployed Snipe-IT in a container and configured SAML authentication with Keycloak. The solution worked perfectly with the default Snipe-IT frontend, meaning both login and logout worked as expected.

The problem started when I began developing my own frontend application. I implemented the OAuth mechanism, and I can successfully request and renew tokens. The authentication process also integrates flawlessly with Keycloak via SAML.

My issue is that I’ve been looking for a solution for logout for a while now, but I haven’t found any information on how to implement it in the documentation or the code. Could anyone help me understand how the logout process works via OAuth and then how it connects to the SAML-based logout?

Thank you in advance for your help!
