contains as much information about the user as OmniAuth was able to
glean from the utilized strategy. You should set up an endpoint in your
application that matches to the callback URL and then performs whatever
steps are necessary for your application. For example, in a Rails app
you would add a line in your `routes.rb` file like this:
```ruby
post '/auth/:provider/callback', to: 'sessions#create'
```
And you might then have a `SessionsController` with code that looks
something like this:
```ruby
class SessionsController < ApplicationController

**Please note:** there is currently a CSRF vulnerability which affects OmniAuth (designated [CVE-2015-9284](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2015-9284)) that requires mitigation at the application level. More details on how to do this can be found on the [Wiki](https://github.com/omniauth/omniauth/wiki/Resolving-CVE-2015-9284).
## Configuring The `origin` Param
The `origin` url parameter is typically used to inform where a user came from and where, should you choose to use it, they'd want to return to.
## Rails (without Devise)
To get started, add the following gems
There are three possible options:
Default Flow:
**Gemfile**:
```ruby
# /auth/twitter/?origin=[URL]
# No change
# If blank, `omniauth.origin` is set to HTTP_REFERER
gem 'omniauth'
gem "omniauth-rails_csrf_protection"
```
Renaming Origin Param:
Then insert OmniAuth as a middleware
**config/initializers/omniauth.rb**:
```ruby
# /auth/twitter/?return_to=[URL]
# If blank, `omniauth.origin` is set to HTTP_REFERER
provider :twitter, ENV['KEY'], ENV['SECRET'], origin_param: 'return_to'
Rails.application.config.middleware.use OmniAuth::Builder do
provider :developer if Rails.env.development?
end
```
Disabling Origin Param:
Additional providers can be added here in the future. Next we wire it
all up using routes, a controller and a login view.
**config/routes.rb**:
```ruby
# /auth/twitter
# Origin handled externally, if need be. `omniauth.origin` is not set
provider :twitter, ENV['KEY'], ENV['SECRET'], origin_param: false
get 'auth/:provider/callback', to: 'sessions#create'
get '/login', to: 'sessions#new'
```
## Integrating OmniAuth Into Your Rails API
**app/controllers/sessions_controller.rb**:
```ruby
class SessionsController < ApplicationController
def new
render :new
end
def create
user_info = request.env['omniauth.auth']
raise user_info # Your own session management should be placed here.
end
end
```
**app/views/sessions/new.html.erb**:
```erb
<%= form_tag('/auth/developer', method: 'post', data: {turbo: false}) do %>
<button type='submit'>Login with Developer</button>
<% end %>
```
Now if you visit `/login` and click the Login button, you should see the
OmniAuth developer login screen. After submitting it, you are returned to your
application at `Sessions#create`. The raise should now display all the Omniauth
details you have available to integrate it into your own user management.
If you want out of the box usermanagement, you should consider using Omniauth
through Devise. Please visit the [Devise Github page](https://github.com/heartcombo/devise#omniauth)
for more information.
## Rails API
The following middleware are (by default) included for session management in
Rails applications. When using OmniAuth with a Rails API, you'll need to add
one of these required middleware back in:

## Origin Param
The `origin` url parameter is typically used to inform where a user came from
and where, should you choose to use it, they'd want to return to.
Omniauth supports the following settings which can be configured on a provider level:
**Default**:
```ruby
provider :twitter, ENV['KEY'], ENV['SECRET']
POST /auth/twitter/?origin=[URL]
# If the `origin` parameter is blank, `omniauth.origin` is set to HTTP_REFERER
```
**Using a differently named origin parameter**:
```ruby
provider :twitter, ENV['KEY'], ENV['SECRET'], origin_param: 'return_to'
POST /auth/twitter/?return_to=[URL]
# If the `return_to` parameter is blank, `omniauth.origin` is set to HTTP_REFERER
```
**Disabled**:
```ruby
provider :twitter, ENV['KEY'], ENV['SECRET'], origin_param: false
POST /auth/twitter
# This means the origin should be handled by your own application.
# Note that `omniauth.origin` will always be blank.
```
