Auth Namespace

The Auth namespace provides  interfaces and classes and enums for single sign-on into Salesforce and session security management.

The following is the interface in the Auth namespace.

Interfaces:

• SamlJitHandler Interface
  Use this interface to control and customize Just-in-Time user provisioning logic during SAML single sign-on.
• RegistrationHandler Interface
  Salesforce provides the ability to use an authentication provider, such as Facebook© or Janrain©, for single sign-on into Salesforce.
• AuthProviderPlugin Interface
  Use this interface to create a custom OAuth-based authentication provider plug-in for single sign-on in to Salesforce.

Classes:

• AuthConfiguration Class
  Contains methods for configuring the settings for users to log in to a community, or a custom domain created using My Domain, with an authentication provider, such as Facebook©.
• AuthProviderCallbackState Class
  Provides request HTTP headers, body, and query parameters to the AuthProviderPlugin.handleCallback method for user authentication. This class allows you to group the information to be passed in rather than passing headers, body, and query parameters individually.
• AuthProviderTokenResponse Class
  Stores the response from the AuthProviderPlugin.handleCallback method.
• AuthToken Class
  Contains methods for providing the access token associated with an authentication provider for an authenticated user, except for the Janrain provider.
• CommunitiesUtil Class
  Contains methods for getting information about a community user.
• ConnectedAppPlugin Class
  Extend the behavior of a connected app. This class gives you more control over the interaction between Salesforce and your connected app. You can customize how a connected app is invoked depending on the protocol used. You can intercept SAML XML generated by the Salesforce identity provider and add custom code before passing it to the target service provider.
• Auth Exceptions
  The Auth namespace contains one exception class.
• SessionManagement Class
  Contains methods for customizing security levels, two-factor authentication, and trusted IP ranges for a current session.
• UserData Class
  Stores user information for Auth.RegistrationHandler.

Enums:

• SessionLevel Enum
  An Auth.SessionLevel enum value is used by the SessionManagement.setSessionLevel method.
• 
  
• VerificationPolicy Enum
  The Auth.VerificationPolicy enum contains an identity verification policy value used by theSessionManagement.generateVerificationUrl method.
• 
  
• InvocationContext Enum
  The context in which the connected app is invoked, such as the protocol flow used and the token type issued, if any. Developers can use the context information to write code that is unique to the type of invocation.
