Moodle Mobile and SAML not working

We have the following issue:

1. We start the Moodle Mobile App

2. We put in the URL

3. We get the  text 'you need to login in using a browser for this site

If we do this, we have Moodle in the browser. The APP never seems to start.


What's wrong?

Hello Richard,

after the user authenticates in the browser, the app should be opened again and authenticate the user.

Can you please send your Moodle URL and a test account to mobile@moodle.com so we can take a look? Please reference this forum post so we know what it is about.

Kind regards,

Dani

Hi Memet,

so far the 100% of the problems we have found related to SAML are because of customizations of the plugin or problems with the site itself.

The saml plugin should work fine if you have any issue it may be specific to your site so please, send us a test user account so we can give you some clues.

Juan

No problem!

I was able to get the login to work. I thought I had to add the login url for saml, domain/auth/saml/index.php, but that didn't work. I removed the URL and left the field empty, we then got redirected to the login-page in Moodle where the users had to press the login.button for the SAML-integration.

The customer was happy with this solution, so I would say it works fine for us.

Thx Juan, for responding to my question.
