Would be very nice to have built-in support for Google Login / Google Accounts out of the box, similar to WikiJS, Taiga Community, etc.

Do not want to create manual accounts for each user, nor do I want to configure an LDAP plugin if it can be avoided.

Google auth is a very widely supported authentication mechanism and is very useful for teams using Google Workspace to setup accounts within Taiga and keep things centrally managed via Google accounts.

Did some research in the repository and see this feature may already exist?

Is there a reason why it’s in the source code but not listed in the documentation or shows up in the latest version’s interface?

Is there some way to enable this? Would be very helpful.

Thanks.

Hi @asher1650

The code you are sharing is from taiga-next. The taiga 6.x repositories are:

> **[GitHub - kaleidos-ventures/taiga-back](https://github.com/kaleidos-ventures/taiga-back)**
>
> Contribute to kaleidos-ventures/taiga-back development by creating an account on GitHub.

> **[GitHub - kaleidos-ventures/taiga-front](https://github.com/kaleidos-ventures/taiga-front)**
>
> Contribute to kaleidos-ventures/taiga-front development by creating an account on GitHub.

taiga-next is in an early alpha version, is not documented yet and it doesn’t have the same functionalities that taiga6 offers.

Best regards

Thanks for your reply. Sorry for the confusion, I thought this was for Taiga Next. As far as I know I’m using taiga-next per the taiga-next instructions.

I would like to now activate this Google plugin that I see in the source code but not in the releases. Is there a reason for that?

Please assume I’m only using and familiar with taiga-next. I’m not familiar or using the older version of taiga. Maybe that helps?

Is there a posting or community for taiga-next? I had assumed that’s what this board was.

Thank you!

Well, Taiga-next is still in alpha version and we don’t have documentation to setup a production environment yet. But If you have managed to install it by your own, you just have to modify the frontend and the backend .env files to complete the credentials (client id and secret key).

- Backend .env sample file [taiga/python/apps/taiga/.env.example.prod at 53733d6f92f724962d457b00f9bd1442968dc0b5 · taigaio/taiga · GitHub](https://github.com/taigaio/taiga/blob/53733d6f92f724962d457b00f9bd1442968dc0b5/python/apps/taiga/.env.example.prod#L29-L30)
- Fronted .env sample file [taiga/javascript/config.example.json at 53733d6f92f724962d457b00f9bd1442968dc0b5 · taigaio/taiga · GitHub](https://github.com/taigaio/taiga/blob/53733d6f92f724962d457b00f9bd1442968dc0b5/javascript/config.example.json#L15)

I hope this can help

Hi @asher1650 , if you have missed it, Taiga-Next has become Tenzu (details [here](https://community.taiga.io/t/tenzu-live-demo-and-code-repository/4403)) 😃  
We are planning to add back the support of external SSO to Tenzu soon, once it is done we would be glad to have users testing it 🙂
