It integrates SAML2 authentication into Django applications, supporting both IdP-initiated and SP-initiated single sign-on flows. The underlying library handles SAML2 assertion validation, user creation, and attribute mapping according to your configuration.\n\nThe package depends on django-saml2-auth-community for all actual functionality. Installing grafana-django-saml2-auth will pull in that community package, so you get the same SAML2 authentication capabilities but through the maintained line. The only reason to use this shim is if you have existing code or lock files that reference the old package name; new projects should install django-saml2-auth-community directly.","worth_installing":"No\u2014install django-saml2-auth-community directly instead. This package is a deprecated compatibility shim; it exists only to redirect old references to the maintained fork. Using it adds an unnecessary layer of indirection. If you have existing code referencing grafana-django-saml2-auth, the shim will work, but new projects and migrations should use django-saml2-auth-community."},"id":"grafana-django-saml2-auth","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/grafana-django-saml2-auth","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/grafana-django-saml2-auth.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/grafana-django-saml2-auth/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-04-11","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"grafana-django-saml2-auth","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Deprecated compatibility package.
