      I skipped opting for SSO when installing apps. According to the Cloudron Docs in Users & Groups section you need to select SSO at the time of app installation.

      Assuming an app support LDAP. Is it possible to add LDAP support (Cloudron SSO) to an app after it is installed?

        @briankb-0 It's best to install a new app with SSO enabled and migrate the data.

          This has long been on our tasklist. Essentially there is no technical reason why the LDAP/SSO feature could not be enabled/disabled after installation. The main blocking point is that we are not really comfortable currently with how apps behave. Some might purge user-data if users go away which may result in dataloss.

            There's many variation in app support:

            • What happens to existing users? I think it will be hard for us to write user migration docs for each app (because I have often seen one has to straight up edit the database).

            • Many apps do not support multiple auth providers. So, if you switch to LDAP or viceversa, you cannot login with your previous users anymore (to migrate data).
