IITB Central SSO — OpenID Connect is one of 5 APIs that [Indian Institute of Technology Bombay](https://apis.io/providers/iit-bombay/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Identity, Single Sign-On, OpenID Connect, Authentication, and Federation. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes authentication docs.

The IIT Bombay Computer Centre's central identity provider, and the credential every institutional service sits behind. It publishes a live OpenID Connect Discovery 1.0 document and a JWKS: issuer https://sso.iitb.ac.in, authorization, token and userinfo endpoints, response_types_supported ["code"], token_endpoint_auth_methods_supported ["client_secret_basic"], and a deliberately minimal scopes_supported of ["openid"]. Interactive sign-in is LDAP plus a second factor — TOTP, a hardware credential, or SMS OTP. Client registration is not self-service; the Gymkhana developer documentation directs external developers to the Computer Centre for IITB SSO integration.
