I read the documentation for x-pack and I see that it supports LDAP. I am however curious to know if I an use x-pack for an enterprise which uses google for its SSO (or google authentication in general). If I missed reading any documentation, please point me in that direction. Thanks! ---

Hi there, I don't think we have any official documentation on integrating with Google SSO, but I think the typical solution has been to use a proxy to authenticate, e.g. [https://github.com/bitly/oauth2\_proxy](https://github.com/bitly/oauth2_proxy). Can you take a look at that documentation and let me know if it helps? Thanks, CJ ---
