SSO from Shopify to 3rd party applications

We have a use case where we are trying to achieve authentication from Shopify to Okta for the store customers.

We know that multipass allows us to log in to Shopify from other sites. But the use case we are trying to achieve is the other way round. We want our customers to be able to access Okta from Shopify credentials.

Okta accepts SAML/Oauth tokens for its authentication. Is there a way in Shopify to generated and send these tokens? Is there a way to achieve SSO to other applications from Shopify?

Hi Rohit,

Yes, there is a solution that works fine. I was able to authenticate my Shopify Store users on my Thinkific website using the Store as IDP app available on the Shopify Appstore. We are using JWT Token to integrate SSO between Shopify and Thinkific.

I will recommend you to use the Store as IDP App for your use case as well.

We are trying to use the miniOrange app from the Shopify App store. Does anyone know of any other large scale SAML apps which work with Shopify?
