# after that the validity period changes and Synapse is restarted, the users'

## Signing Keys ##

# Path to the signing key to sign messages with
#
signing_key_path: "CONFDIR/SERVERNAME.signing.key"

# The keys that the server used to sign messages with but won't use
# to sign new messages.
#
old_signing_keys:
  # For each key, `key` should be the base64-encoded public key, and
  # `expired_ts`should be the time (in milliseconds since the unix epoch) that
  # it was last used.
  #
  # It is possible to build an entry from an old signing.key file using the
  # `export_signing_key` script which is provided with synapse.
  #
  # For example:
  #
  #"ed25519:id": { key: "base64string", expired_ts: 123456789123 }

# How long key response published by this server is valid for.
# Used to set the valid_until_ts in /key/v2 APIs.
# Determines how quickly servers will query to check which keys
# are still valid.
#
#key_refresh_interval: 1d

# The trusted servers to download signing keys from.
#
# When we need to fetch a signing key, each server is tried in parallel.
#
# Normally, the connection to the key server is validated via TLS certificates.
# Additional security can be provided by configuring a `verify key`, which
# will make synapse check that the response is signed by that key.
#
# This setting supercedes an older setting named `perspectives`. The old format
# is still supported for backwards-compatibility, but it is deprecated.
#
# 'trusted_key_servers' defaults to matrix.org, but using it will generate a
# warning on start-up. To suppress this warning, set
# 'suppress_key_server_warning' to true.
#
# Options for each entry in the list include:
#
#    server_name: the name of the server. required.
#
#    verify_keys: an optional map from key id to base64-encoded public key.
#       If specified, we will check that the response is signed by at least
#       one of the given keys.
#
#    accept_keys_insecurely: a boolean. Normally, if `verify_keys` is unset,
#       and federation_verify_certificates is not `true`, synapse will refuse
#       to start, because this would allow anyone who can spoof DNS responses
#       to masquerade as the trusted key server. If you know what you are doing
#       and are sure that your network environment provides a secure connection
#       to the key server, you can set this to `true` to override this
#       behaviour.
#
# An example configuration might look like:
#
#trusted_key_servers:
#  - server_name: "my_trusted_server.example.com"
#    verify_keys:
#      "ed25519:auto": "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmopqr"
#  - server_name: "my_other_trusted_server.example.com"
#
trusted_key_servers:
  - server_name: "matrix.org"

# Uncomment the following to disable the warning that is emitted when the
# trusted_key_servers include 'matrix.org'. See above.
#
#suppress_key_server_warning: true

# The signing keys to use when acting as a trusted key server. If not specified
# defaults to the server signing key.
#
# Can contain multiple keys, one per line.
#

# Enable SAML2 for registration and login. Uses pysaml2.
#
# At least one of `sp_config` or `config_path` must be set in this section to

#
# (You will probably also want to set the following options to `false` to
# disable the regular login/registration flows:
#   * enable_registration
#   * password_config.enabled
#
# Once SAML support is enabled, a metadata file will be exposed at
# https://<server>:<port>/_matrix/saml2/metadata.xml, which you may be able to
# use to configure your SAML IdP with. Alternatively, you can manually configure
# the IdP to use an ACS location of

#
saml2_config:
  # `sp_config` is the configuration for the pysaml2 Service Provider.

  #  metadata:
  #    #local: ["saml2/idp.xml"]
  #    remote:
  #      - url: https://our_idp/metadata.xml
  #
  #  # By default, the user has to go to our login page first. If you'd like
  #  # to allow IdP-initiated login, set 'allow_unsolicited: true' in a
  #  # 'service.sp' section:
  #  #
  #  #service:
  #  #  sp:
  #  #    allow_unsolicited: true
  #
  #  # The examples below are just used to generate our metadata xml, and you
  #  # may well not need them, depending on your setup. Alternatively you
  #  # may need a whole lot more detail - see the pysaml2 docs!

# For more information and known implementations, please see

# Clients requesting push notifications can either have the body of
# the message sent in the notification poke along with other details
# like the sender, or just the event ID and room ID (`event_id_only`).
# If clients choose the former, this option controls whether the
# notification request includes the content of the event (other details
# like the sender are still included). For `event_id_only` push, it
# has no effect.
#
# For modern android devices the notification content will still appear
# because it is loaded by the app. iPhone, however will send a
# notification saying only that a message arrived and who it came from.

# User Directory configuration
#
# 'enabled' defines whether users can search the user directory. If
# false then empty responses are returned to all queries. Defaults to
# true.
#
# 'search_all_users' defines whether to search all users visible to your HS
# when searching the user directory, rather than limiting to users visible
# in public rooms.  Defaults to false.  If you set it True, you'll have to
# rebuild the user_directory search indexes, see

# User Consent configuration
#
# for detailed instructions, see
# https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/docs/consent_tracking.md
#
# Parts of this section are required if enabling the 'consent' resource under
# 'listeners', in particular 'template_dir' and 'version'.
#
# 'template_dir' gives the location of the templates for the HTML forms.
# This directory should contain one subdirectory per language (eg, 'en', 'fr'),
# and each language directory should contain the policy document (named as
# '<version>.html') and a success page (success.html).
#
# 'version' specifies the 'current' version of the policy document. It defines
# the version to be served by the consent resource if there is no 'v'
# parameter.
#
# 'server_notice_content', if enabled, will send a user a "Server Notice"
# asking them to consent to the privacy policy. The 'server_notices' section
# must also be configured for this to work. Notices will *not* be sent to
# guest users unless 'send_server_notice_to_guests' is set to true.
#
# 'block_events_error', if set, will block any attempts to send events
# until the user consents to the privacy policy. The value of the setting is
# used as the text of the error.
#
# 'require_at_registration', if enabled, will add a step to the registration
# process, similar to how captcha works. Users will be required to accept the
# policy before their account is created.
#
# 'policy_name' is the display name of the policy users will see when registering
# for an account. Has no effect unless `require_at_registration` is enabled.
# Defaults to "Privacy Policy".
