Hi

Anyone please help me to understand how I implement SAML 2 plugin for SSO. I have two sites one for billing which developed in Laravel and another is Moodle site where I provide course content. But problem is that for both the site user need to access separately and use there user name and password twice.

I want to make this automatic if user login in SITE A its sync and SITE B logged in without any effort and vise versa.

If possible please send an Video Solution tutorial for that smile.

So you need a SAML server - I don't use Laravel but maybe it has SAML functionality that Moodle can use for authentication. Normally you would use a third server/service for authentication that both sites are set up to authenticate through - that way they login once for the first site they visit and then when they visit the second site, they click on login and are automatically logged in there too without having to reenter credentials.

You need a Identity Provider Server (IdP) to manage the users and also the Service Provider Server(SP).
Of course you need to create the IdP. There are many system options.

On the other hand you need to configure you SP. If you are planning to use Moodle as SP you can use https://moodle.org/plugins/auth_saml2
