OpenID Connect Playground
The OIDC playground is for developers to test and work with OpenID Connect calls step-by-step, giving them more insight into how OpenID Connect works.
Welcome to the OpenID Connect Playground!
This project was created at Auth0 to educate developers about OpenID Connect (also known as OIDC) and allow users to play with and test every step of the OpenID Connect login process.
What is OpenID Connect/OIDC?
OIDC was created as an identity layer for OAuth 2.0-- because while OAuth provides a solid standard for user Authentication (proving they are who they say they are), developers needed a standard way of expressing user identity. Before, getting the same pieces of user information could be a completely different process for each OAuth provider. But with OIDC, you get the same fields in the same format, from any provider (as long as they implement OIDC!).
You can learn even more about OIDC at the following resources:
How will the playground help?
The playground allows users to see and test each step in the OIDC, with an Auth0 template, a Google Accounts API template, or adding your own OIDC URLs. This is so users can not only learn more about OIDC, but test their own implementation and see each step working in series to create a robust login solution.
The OIDC playground is brought to you by Auth0.
A cloud service, APIs and tools that eliminate the friction of identity for your applications and APIs.
