Would like to request CAS as an SSO Authentication option for Bookstack.
Higher Education primarily uses CAS or Shibboleth for SSO Authentication.

Your product is an awesome tool!

Thanks for your request @jblankenship30, and apologies for my late response.

To be totally open, I would really prefer not to extend to extra auth protocols unless found critical by a large group of users, which CAS really is not since this is the only request so far.

Since you opened this issue we have added SAML2 in a recent release:

I see a lot of CAS-Support auth systems support SAML2, as does modern versions of Shibboleth. Does that suit your need?

@jblankenship30 Great & Thanks! I'll therefore close this off since SAML2 covers your requirement.

Note: I Updated your comment and deleted the original revision, to prevent your email address being visible on a public web-page. Looks like the GitHub email-reply system (And included office365 safelinks) can leak a person's email address pretty easily.
