Common Issues & Resolutions

Addressing common OIDC issues early can help ensure a smooth integration and prevent disruptions for people attempting to access connected platforms.

Mismatched Emails/Usernames

  • Issue: Person not found.
  • Potential Resolution: Confirm that the email in the primary source exactly matches the identifier in the OIDC provider.

Login Failures

  • Issue: Authentication fails during login.
  • Potential Resolutions:
    • Verify that the OIDC provider setup (e.g., client ID, secret, redirect URI) is configured correctly within Edlink.
    • Verify the configuration in the OIDC provider to ensure it is set up correctly.

Unsupported Provider

  • Issue: The OIDC provider does not follow OpenID Connect standards.
  • Potential Resolution: Switch to a provider that adheres to OIDC standards.
