How can we improve WHMCS?

Dear WHMCS Development Team,

I am writing to request native integration support for Auth0 as an Identity Provider (IdP) for Single Sign-On (SSO) capabilities within WHMCS. Many businesses, including us, rely on Auth0 for centralized user authentication and management. Auth0's flexibility and security features make it an excellent choice for SSO, and it would be highly beneficial to have out-of-the-box support for it in WHMCS.

Problem:
Currently, WHMCS users who wish to integrate Auth0 must use custom development, leveraging the CreateSsoToken API endpoint or other workarounds. This process can be complex, time-consuming, and potentially insecure if not implemented correctly.

Proposed Solution:
I propose that WHMCS develops a native feature or module to allow seamless integration with Auth0 for SSO procedures. This integration should support:

- Easy configuration of Auth0 settings within WHMCS admin panel.
- Secure authentication flow managed by WHMCS using OAuth2 standards.
- Automatic user account creation and updating in WHMCS based on Auth0 user profiles.
- Support for Auth0's comprehensive set of user authentication features, including multi-factor authentication (MFA) and single sign-out.

Benefits:

- Enhanced Security: Auth0 provides robust authentication mechanisms that can improve the overall security of the WHMCS user login experience.
- Improved User Experience: Customers will benefit from a streamlined login process without having to manage separate credentials for WHMCS.
- Increased Efficiency: Reducing the need for custom development will save time and resources for WHMCS admins and developers.
- Future-Proofing: As more businesses adopt SSO for enhanced security and user experience, native support for Auth0 will keep WHMCS competitive and relevant.
- Broader Adoption: Encourages new and existing customers who rely on Auth0 to choose or continue using WHMCS for their business needs.
- Given the widespread usage and popularity of Auth0, I believe that adding this feature would greatly enhance the functionality of WHMCS and could provide significant added value to a large number of WHMCS users.

I look forward to the possibility of seeing this integration in a future release of WHMCS and would be happy to discuss additional details or participate in a beta testing program should one be available.

Thank you for your consideration of this feature request.

Best regards,
