WalkthroughThe SAML login handler no longer deletes credential tokens after redemption. Tokens remain available for concurrent mobile webview and native app requests and expire through the existing TTL index. Unit tests verify repeated redemption. ChangesSAML credential token reuse
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The change allows the mobile webview and native app to redeem the same SAML token, but the regression tests need follow-up because one does not exercise successful redemption and another does not verify concurrent requests. The PR is otherwise mergeable with explicit owner awareness of this bounded test risk. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

For TypeScript files, review lint implications without Biome guidance unless the project enables Biome rules.

Learning: In this repository (RocketChat/Rocket.Chat), Biome lint rules are not used even if a biome.json exists. When reviewing TypeScript files (e.g., packages/ui-voip/src/providers/useMediaSession.ts), ensure lint suggestions do not reference Biome-specific rules. Rely on general ESLint/TypeScript lint rules and project conventions instead.

Learning: Field wrappers in rocket.chat/fuselage-forms (Field, FieldLabel, FieldRow, FieldError, FieldHint) auto-create htmlFor/id associations, aria-describedby, and role="alert" for errors. Do not manually set htmlFor, id, aria-describedby, or role attributes when using these wrappers. This automatic wiring does not apply to plain rocket.chat/fuselage components, which require explicit ID wiring per the accessibility docs. In code reviews, prefer using fuselage-forms wrappers for form fields and verify there is no unnecessary manual ID/aria wiring in files that use these wrappers. If a component uses plain fuselage components, ensure proper id wiring as per docs.

Learning: In Rocket.Chat Meteor server code, `callbacks.runAsync` returns its input item rather than the asynchronous callback promise. Callers of `afterReadMessages` must invoke `callbacks.runAsync` without awaiting it, keeping read-receipt I/O off the message-send path; this includes `apps/meteor/server/hooks/messages/processThreads.ts`.

Learning: In Playwright end-to-end tests (e.g., under apps/meteor/tests/e2e/...), prefer locating elements by translated text (getByText) and ARIA roles (getByRole) over data-qa attributes. If translation values change, update the corresponding test locators accordingly. Never use data-qa locators. This guideline applies to all Playwright e2e test specs in the repository and helps keep tests robust to UI text changes and accessible semantics.

Learning: In tests (especially those using testing-library/dom/jsdom) for Rocket.Chat components, the HTML <code> element has an implicit ARIA role of 'code'. Therefore, screen.getByRole('code') or screen.findByRole('code') will locate <code> elements even without a role attribute. Do not flag findByRole('code') as invalid in reviews; prefer using the implicit role instead of adding role="code" unless necessary for accessibility.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Use a valid credential for the no-deletion test.
beforeEach configures retrieveCredential to resolve null, and the test at Lines [77-81] does not override it. The test therefore exercises the missing-credential path instead of the redemption path. Seed a valid credential before calling handler, then assert that redemption succeeds and removeById is not called.

Cross-linking: #41408 by @prathamesh04 (opened a month before this one, still open) removes the same |
Proposed changes
Fixes mobile SAML login failing with
No matching login attempt foundfor the large majority of attempts.The mobile login flow makes the in-app webview and the native app redeem the same credential token concurrently. The SAML login handler was deleting the token on its first redemption (
CredentialTokens.removeById), so whichever request lost the race found no token and login failed with 401. This restores the behavior of the original fix in #7343, which this code regressed from.The token is now left for the TTL mechanism to clean up:
credential_tokensalready has a TTL index onexpireAt(tokens are created with a 60-second validity inCredentialTokensRaw.create), so no documents leak.Issue(s)
Closes #40605
Steps to test or reproduce
POST /api/v1/logininstead of returningNo matching login attempt found.Unit-level reproduction is covered by the added regression test
tests/unit/server/lib/saml/loginHandler.spec.ts, which simulates the two redemptions sharing one token and fails on the previous code (second redemption returns{ type: 'saml', error: 403 }).Further comments
credential_tokens.expireAtalready provides cleanup, so this does not introduce a storage leak.Automated by pr-pipeline (com.ashutosh.prpipeline).
