Integration with an application

Integration with an application

We are running a mobile application which authenticates its users. 

Naturally the users can log in into a Moodle site using SAML2 and  IDP (SimpleSamlPHP) server.

As the users are already authenticated with the app we would like to provide them access automatically.

How cam we achieve this ? 

Thanks

Google do something similar - login to the Drive app, then open something from there (invoking the Docs or Sheets apps) and the app opening that file picks up your session.

I don't know the nuts and bolts of how you do it. But it probably involves customising the official app to have extra login handling code, to send the session to your own app.
