OpenID Connect (OIDC)

The abbreviation for Open ID Connect, a specification published by the OpenID Foundation.




OpenID Connect Core

OpenID Connect 1.0 is a simple identity layer on top of the OAuth 2.0 protocol. It enables Clients to verify the identity of the end user based on the authentication performed by an Authorization Server, as well as to obtain basic profile information about the end user in an interoperable and REST-like manner. This specification defines the OpenID Connect Core functionality: authentication built on top of OAuth 2.0 and the use of claims to communicate information about the end user. It also describes the security and privacy considerations for using OpenID Connect




OpenID Connect Discovery

The OpenID Connect Discovery specification defines a mechanism for an OpenID Connect Relying Party to discover the End-User's OpenID Provider and obtain information needed to interact with it, including its OAuth 2.0 endpoint locations.




OpenID Connect Dynamic Client Registration

OpenID Connect 1.0 is a simple identity layer on top of the OAuth 2.0 protocol. It enables Clients to verify the identity of the End-User based on the authentication performed by an Authorization Server, as well as to obtain basic profile information about the End-User in an interoperable and REST-like manner. The OpenID Connect Dynamic Client Registration specification defines how an OpenID Connect Relying Party can dynamically register with the End-User's OpenID Provider, providing information about itself to the OpenID Provider, and obtaining information needed to use it, including the OAuth 2.0 Client ID for this Relying Party.




OpenID Foundation

The OpenID Foundation is a non-profit international standardization organization of individuals and companies committed to enabling, promoting and protecting OpenID technologies. Formed in June 2007, the Foundation serves as a public trust organization representing the open community of developers, vendors, and users. OpenID Foundation assists the community by providing needed infrastructure and help in promoting and supporting expanded adoption of OpenID. This entails managing intellectual property and brand marks as well as fostering viral growth and global participation in the proliferation of OpenID.




OpenVideo Metadata

This is a specification under development by 1EdTech. The OpenVideo Metadata specification defines a format for creating rich media content that describes captured rich media in a standardized way such that management solutions that support the standard can exchange the media. The goal of the OpenVideo Metadata specification is to make it simple and easy for educational institutions to manage all of their captured content, in a way that is agnostic to the software and hardware they used to capture it. The standard aims to remove siloed data and long integration projects by creating one simple, standardized format that describes captured rich media, as well as a process by which this media can be transferred into a media management solution that supports the format.  Learn more about this work: https://www.imsglobal.org/activity/openvideo
