Solved Bookstack bypass External Authentication ID

[Enabl.ist]

Hi,

Is there a way to bypass External Authentication ID the LDAP connected to the cloudron account in Bookstack? I would like to invite/ register clients edit manuals for their projects and applications themselves.

ps bookstack is a amazing application

This can be the case for several applications imo. A general solution to mixing Cloudron users and app-specific users would be good.

Some apps support disabling the Cloudron usermanagement. Bookstack is currently not one of them though.

@nebulon - Ok clear so when i want to invite users I should do that via Cloudron user management. And hopefully in the future we could use the app with out the LDAP.

Thanks

@Enabl-ist Can't you just add a new user to the bookstack user list?

Nope. Needs external auth id to map to LDAP user.

@Enabl-ist what about a Cloudron user group "wiki" that only gives you rights for the Bookstack app? Than create a user (external client) and give him the wiki group.

I created a group "intern" which has access to all apps. Than I have a group "extern" with only some apps. If you have no group, you see no app. You can log in to cloudron but thats it. This could solve your problem but still needs some administration and changes to exisiting users and groups.
