Currently i am setting
up a user federation. Right now it is possible to add text
fields to the user federation configuration page.
Is it also possible to
add buttons and other elements?
Yes, for text fields. You don't even need to do any changes on UI
side, you just need to properly implement your
UserFederationProviderFactory.getConfigurationOptions() . See the
federation example ( examples/providers/federation-provider ) for
more details.
With buttons it's more tricky. We don't officially support this way.
Here you will likely need to implement custom UI page and change
some of our angular files (like configure the page in app.js and
possibly add new controller etc). You can figure it from existing
LDAP federation provider, which doesn't use the "generic" federation
provider page.
