Has anyone got the Element X App working with Cloudron Matrix?

[potemkin_ai]

on top of everything, Element X require livekit & jwt to work; if you are using OpenID connect - you have to use MAS, as Element X will not work otherwise (not now, nor ever).

I'm encountering this as well. It is really disappointing as a statement on the Matrix ecosystem that the flagship Matrix app can't always log into the standard Matrix server. Do we have any ability to build in a workaround for Cloudron?

FWIW, I've just logged into my Matrix using Android Element X. Is this still an issue for others?

[ntnsndr]

@scooke What method did you use? Were you able to use the QR? Or did you manually join the server by address without the "selected homeserver doens't support password or oidc login" error?

@ntnsndr I'm not positive as I've not tested it, but my understanding is that Martix on Cloudron without any OIDC works with Element X, but with OIDC it doesn't work because for that we'd need MAS set-up which we don't yet have on Cloudron yet. I think, maybe.

Correct. Password login works fine, OIDC does not, neither do calls.

Thanks for the clarity. Disappointing, since unified login is really crucial for my server.

Again, what an absurd situation: That the flagship app for Matrix doesn't work with SSO. How the heck do they explain that to their government/military customers?

Thanks, team Cloudron!

@ntnsndr It does work with SSO (Can't say anything about how well) via the MAS. I've been playing around with seeing about adding it to the cloudron package but so far no luck getting MAS started.

Oh, got it—thanks.

@ntnsndr I used my Matrix install with it setup to manage users on its own. I logged into the matrix.example.com site, not the element.example.com site, by entering the Matrix url. And yes, it was just with username and password (which had been setup on the element.example.com site). I hadn't tried the QR code.
