Authenticate to mattermost server with GitLab SSO

[ialokim]

I've already searched a bit and it seems authentication to a Mattermost server which uses GitLab Single Sign On isn't possible using the Mattermost API (see here e.g.) and therefore neither for matterbridge. Just wanted to confirm I'm not missing anything.

No, but if you have personal tokens enabled you coud use those.
https://docs.mattermost.com/developer/personal-access-tokens.html

42wim/matterircd#29 has also some info about how you can get the MMtoken from the webapp and use it :-)

Going to close this as we can't fix it.

Thanks a lot for these hints!

In case someone was looking for the same, the personal access token or MMtoken from the webapp can be specified in matterbridge.toml as Token="<your-token-here>".

@42wim would you be open to include the above Token documentation in the Mattermost wiki section ?
