+### Shibboleth with OIDC Plugin
+
+[Shibboleth](https://www.shibboleth.net/) is an open Standard IdP solution widely used by Universities.
+
+1. Shibboleth needs the [OIDC Plugin](https://shibboleth.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IDPPLUGINS/pages/1376878976/OIDC+OP) installed and working correctly.
+2. Create a new config on the IdP Side, ensure that the `client_id` and `client_secret`
+   are randomly generated data.
+```json
+{
+    "client_id": "SOME-CLIENT-ID",
+    "client_secret": "SOME-SUPER-SECRET-SECRET",
+    "response_types": ["code"],
+    "grant_types": ["authorization_code"],
+    "scope": "openid profile email",
+    "redirect_uris": ["https://[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback"]
+}
+```
+
+Synapse config:
+
+```yaml
+oidc_providers:
+  # Shibboleth IDP
+  #
+  - idp_id: shibboleth
+    idp_name: "Shibboleth Login"
+    discover: true
+    issuer: "https://YOUR-IDP-URL.TLD"
+    client_id: "YOUR_CLIENT_ID"
+    client_secret: "YOUR-CLIENT-SECRECT-FROM-YOUR-IDP"
+    scopes: ["openid", "profile", "email"]
+    allow_existing_users: true
+    user_profile_method: "userinfo_endpoint"
