Angular-auth-oidc-client: What is STS

Created on 8 Mar 2019  路  8Comments  路  Source: damienbod/angular-auth-oidc-client

In documentation sts probably means security token server?
Is it auth or token endpoint?
Should be 2 separate configuration settings for each endpoints for code flow, as authorization and token exchange are different endpoints.

enhancement documentation investigate

HI @vit100

Yes security token server, no Only 1 endpoint is required, the well known endpoint API defines all the required endpoints for the OIDC server as per spec.

aha, so it is url of .well-known?
problem is that in doc it said sts MUST be set, and later wellknow set as well.
In case of code flow it doesnt make sense then. either well-known or full config with auth and token endpoints...
Probably doc should be corrected.

Can I close this?

Greetings Damien

Probably yes, but docs should be fixed as well.

Hi @vit100
Would you let to do a PR?

I would be very grateful.

I notice this code:
return () => oidcConfigService.load_using_custom_stsServer('https://login.microsoftonline.com/fabrikamb2c.onmicrosoft.com/v2.0/.well-known/openid-configuration?p=b2c_1_susi');

Is there any documentation on how to get my STS Server URL? I'm using Azure and have my app service configured with Goole Authentication provider so far, will expand that to Facebook, Twitter, etc. later. I'm missing something some where.

The docs have been updated
closing this, please re-open is required
