Create an OIDC Connector
The OpenID Connect (OIDC) connector allows SigningHub to connect with any third-party authentication service that supports OIDC protocol such as Google and Azure Active Directory. This is a generic configuration so the "Auth URL" provided in the connector will be used for identifying the third-party service configured to authenticate the user both at the time of login and at the time of signing.
Create an OIDC connector:
- From the left menu, click "Configurations".
- Click "Connectors" .
- From the top right corner of the connectors list, click
