Ucsi Authentication

Authentication

What can actually be established about how a client authenticates against anything UCSI University operates. UCSI publishes no public API and no developer documentation, so this artifact describes the one authentication surface that is publicly readable: the OpenID Connect / SAML 2.0 metadata of the institution's own Microsoft Entra ID tenant. It is a record of a probed discovery document, not a description of an API programme UCSI does not run. Access to a UCSI application still requires a UCSI-issued account and an application registration inside the tenant; there is no self-serve onboarding.

UCSI University secures its APIs with oauth2, openIdConnect, and saml2 across 2 declared security schemes, as derived from its OpenAPI definitions. OAuth 2.0 is offered via the authorizationCode, implicit, and deviceCode flow(s).

notes:
  - >-
    The contract behind both schemes is Microsoft's; the TENANT, its branding, its domain and the
    accounts inside it are UCSI's. Recorded as x-operator federation for that reason.
  - >-
    No authentication scheme could be established for koha.ucsiuniversity.edu.my, iis.ucsiuniversity.edu.my
    or any other institution host: Cloudflare returns 403 to automated clients across the estate.
