Overview
This documentation contains methods of implementation MonoSign with your current applications.
Authentication Methods#
These authentication methods allows MonoSign users to use your application with their own username and password. It is easy to use and implement any methods way you like.
SAML 2.0#
Security Assertion Markup Language 2.0 (SAML 2.0) is a version of the SAML standard for exchanging authentication and authorization data between security domains. SAML 2.0 is an XML-based protocol that uses security tokens containing assertions to pass information about a principal (usually an end user) between a SAML authority, named an Identity Provider, and a SAML consumer, named a Service Provider. SAML 2.0 enables web-based authentication and authorization scenarios including cross-domain single sign-on (SSO), which helps reduce the administrative overhead of distributing multiple authentication tokens to the user.

MonoSign helps you to easy integrate with your application through SAML 2.0
OAuth 2.0#
OAuth 2.0 is the industry-standard protocol for authorization. OAuth 2.0 supersedes the work done on the original OAuth protocol created in 2006. OAuth 2.0 focuses on client developer simplicity while providing specific authorization flows for web applications, desktop applications, mobile phones, and living room devices. [S]
REST API#
You can also connect with REST API and make your application authentication process fully customizable.
