If yes then how can we achieve this? By third party I mean using customized authentication service other than google accounts. Platform: Browser app & android

My question is based on fact that in remoting code repository ( https://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome/trunk/src/remoting/ ) there is commit (Revision 190024) which says adding "Third Party authentication protocol".Please correct if I misunderstood this commit intent. Details below :

I tried building Chrome RDP using instruction mentioned in following links but to my bad I didn't find any step suggesting third party authentication.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/184niJVxEfBoYqOrL_BLIHR8PNTbvCnGcFy3Rwb7NbPU/edit
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/lkcr/docs/old_chromoting_build_instructions.md

As its open sourced there is no point to force users to users certain type of authentication.

Thanks to Jamie Walch from chromium.org ,my query was resolved, Posting here for other's use.

  • Third Party authentication could be done in principle but the party has to develop & deploy it's own back-end services like directory server , TURN service etc.By Google Oauth ,all these respective service APIs are provided by google itself.

  • Bigger concern related to this is sooner these chrome apps are going to deprecated hence the APIs providing different service will be of no use. Please refer to this blog items
