Outbound SSO Method
Key requirements for implementing vendor SSO from BoldTrail
We require the vendor to use OAuth to support SSO. BoldTrail will always use OAuth to connect to the vendor.
BoldTrail must be the identity provider and will provide the vendor a list of client ID’s for a particular account using our JWT token authentication method. This is the same as other users of the API.
Use Case
Users need to be able to login to BoldTrail and click on their company's 3rd party vendor button and have that SSO to the 3rd party vendor. There will be several vendors, so this needs to be a standard approach for all.
Getting Client ID’s
Vendors will make an API request every 4 hours to get the list of valid client ID’s from BoldTrail. We will provide each vendor their own API key that will allow them access to that information.
Headers
Authentication: Bearer
Request
GET /public/agents
Authenticating
When authenticating, BoldTrail sends a request to the vendors system that includes the following:
GET /oauth/authorize?client_id=&client_secret=&redirect_uri=&response_type=token&scope=
Vendor Authenticates and redirects user to the vendor_redirect_uri.

Inbound SSO Method
Example Use Case
User is authenticated into a supported 3rd party, then goes to their BoldTrail Dashboard. Instead of requiring the user to login again to access their dashboard, BoldTrail would automatically authenticate them.
How it Works
Inside Real Estate provides 3rd Party Vendor (consumer) with a Client ID & Client Secret. During the setup process, Inside Real Estate requires the consumer to specify a redirect URI (where BoldTrail should redirect the user after the SSO request is approved).
The consumer requests an authorization code and access token via the BoldTrail /oauth/authorize endpoint.
Example: https://api.kvcore.com/oauth/authorize?client_id=1234&redirect_uri=http://example.com/callback
After receiving the authorization request, BoldTrail will redirect the user to screen allowing them to approve or deny the SSO request. If they approve the request, they will be redirected back to the redirect_uri that was specified by the consuming application. Note, the redirect_uri must match the redirect URL provided by the 3rd party vendor during the setup process.
If the user approves the authorization request, they will be redirected back to the consuming application redirect_uri. The consumer then issues a POST request to BoldTrail to request an access token. The request will must include the following:
{
"form_params": {
"grant_type": "authorization_code",
"client_id": "client-id",
"client_secret": "client-secret",
"redirect_uri": "http://example.com/callback",
"code": "response-code"
}
}
The endpoint will return a JSON response containing access_token, refresh_token, and expires_in attributes. The expires_in attribute contains the number of seconds until the access token expires.
To refresh the SSO Token, the consumer can issue a request to the /oauth/token endpoint with the following
{
"form_params": {
"grant_type": "refresh_token",
"refresh_token": "the-refresh-token"
"client_id": "client-id",
"client_secret": "client-secret",
"scope": ""
}
}
The endpoint will return a JSON response containing access_token, refresh_token, and expires_in attributes. The expires_in attribute contains the number of seconds until the access token expires.
