Single Sign-On? Users API?
 

Hey everyone -

First time poster and new XCart user, so far I am LOVING this platform, it's a huge improvement from Magento.

We currently have a web application which our customers use on a daily basis which requires them to login. I want to enable 'single sign-on' capability between our standalone store site (running XCart 5) and our current web app.

That said, can anyone out there who has built extensions or who has worked on the core platform offer some advice? I have complete control over our web application (having developed most of it in Laravel) so I was thinking that when users click a link in our current app it could redirect to the XCart site with some data in the request which could be used to identify and log the user in.

Any thoughts on the best way to extend XCart to allow for something like this?

Thanks!

As far as I know there is a 'single sign-on' integration with Wordpress in this free module:
https://market.x-cart.com/addons/xcart-in-wordpress.html

So, you may install it and use its source code as the example for your integration.

Hey, thanks for the reply! I will check that plugin out and use it as "inspiration" for my SSO implementation.

When complete I will post back here w/ some lessons learned and etc.

We do single sign on integrations with our sister business (www.idmintegration.com) if you need help. Just drop us an email. Might be a good fit since we're well versed in X-cart as well as many different single sign on methods.

Thanks,

Carrie
