# Setting up the Shared Secret Auth password provider module (optional, advanced)
|
|
|
|
The playbook can install and configure [matrix-synapse-shared-secret-auth](https://github.com/devture/matrix-synapse-shared-secret-auth) for you.
|
|
|
|
See that project's documentation to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.
|
|
|
|
If you decide that you'd like to let this playbook install it for you, you need some configuration (`inventory/host_vars/matrix.<your-domain>/vars.yml`) like this:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
matrix_synapse_ext_password_provider_shared_secret_auth_enabled: true
|
|
matrix_synapse_ext_password_provider_shared_secret_auth_shared_secret: YOUR_SHARED_SECRET_GOES_HERE
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Authenticating only using a password provider
|
|
|
|
If you wish for users to **authenticate only against configured password providers** (like this one), **without consulting Synapse's local database**, feel free to disable it:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
matrix_synapse_password_config_localdb_enabled: false
|
|
```
