title: Identity Providers
---
### What are Identity Providers
Identity providers or in short idps are external systems to which **ZITADEL** can create a **federation** or use their **directory service**.
Normally federation uses protocols like [OpenID Connect 1.0](https://openid.net/connect/), [OAuth 2.0](https://oauth.net/2/) and [SAML 2.0](http://docs.oasis-open.org/security/saml/Post2.0/sstc-saml-tech-overview-2.0.html).
Some examples include:
**Social Providers**
- Google Account
- Microsoft Live Account
- Apple ID
- GitHub
- GitLab
- ...
**Enterprise Providers**
- Azure AD Tenant
- Gsuite hosted domain
- ...
**Generic**
- ADFS
- ADDS
- Keycloak
- LDAP
### What is Identity Brokering
ZITADEL supports the usage as identity broker, by linking multiple external IDPs into one user.
With identity brokering the client, that relies on ZITADEL, doesn't need to care about the linking of identity.

### Federation Protocols
Currently supported are the following protocols.
- OpenID Connect 1.0
- OAuth 2.0
SAML 2.0 will follow later on.
### Storage Federation
> This is a work in progress.
Storage federation is a means of integrating existing identity storage like [LDAP](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4511) and [ADDS](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/identity/ad-ds/get-started/virtual-dc/active-directory-domain-services-overview).
With this process **ZITADEL** can authenticate users with LDAP Binding and SPNEGO for ADDS. It is also possible to synchronize the users just-in-time or scheduled.
#### Sync Settings
Here we will document all the different sync options
- Read-only
- Writeback
- just-in-time sync
- scheduled sync
> TBD
