Suggest you google NSB/App Studio. A simple easy to use tool to create native iphone/droid apps. Other tools out there of course, but this has a manageable learning curve, Use Web2Py or Py4Web for server side back-end. On Friday, September 6, 2019 at 7:28:30 AM UTC-4, Rahul wrote: > > Hey

I am not familiar enough with how AUTH works but can offer a perspective that might help to the level you want AUTH to support AD or SAML2 SSOs. In both AD and SAML using the Shibboleth IIS Plug-in, you are in essence designating a protected folder on the IIS web-server to require

Suggest you research Shibboleth as a SAML layer for your web2py app or if choose to use another framework. You can use Shibboleth to protect a virtual folder to any SAML IDP. If the protected folder is your web2py app, SHIB does the authentication and your web2py app can use any of the identity

For what it is worth, I have web2py deployed under IIS using the ISAPI recipe and web2py screams in speed. The only requirement is the code has to be thread safe and have not yet run into thread safe problems in how we deploy web2py. If it is, you will get much faster performance over fastcgi.
