Server error when running jackson with npm run dev

[Gunkev]

Hi I just install jackson with npm and clone the repository. I have successfully install all dependencies but when I run npm run dev I'm getting the following error

http://localhost:5225/:

Server Error

TypeError: Invalid URL

Please does any know why and how I can solve this?

@Gunkev have you set up a .env file?

[niwsa]

For the jackson admin ui (where you can add saml configs) you need to setup the env mentioned in https://boxyhq.com/docs/jackson/deploy/env-variables#admin-ui-configuration. For the SMTP provider you can use something like https://mailtrap.io/ for quick testing. Once you login into the admin ui, SAML config can be added

[niwsa]

Just to add, you can also add SAML config by calling the APIs directly. See -> https://boxyhq.com/docs/jackson/saml-flow#21-saml-add-config-api. The admin ui is a wrapper around these APIs.

@niwsa I'm getting the error below while navigating to http://localhost:5225/api/oauth/saml. I have added SAML_PATH=/api/oauth/saml in my .env file

Please how do I proceed ? it it a command or I just add in a file and execute ?

@Gunkev, The screenshot shown above is for the ACS URL where the SAML assertion is POSTed back and you can't use a GET to directly access it.

You can refer the https://boxyhq.com/docs/jackson/saml-flow page to get an overview of the SAML flow and how Jackson wraps it up as an OAuth flow. Also you can go through the guide at https://boxyhq.com/guides/jackson/frameworks/nextjs on how to use jackson SAML provider with Next.js.
