IdP-Initiated login looping issue

Problem statement

We are experiencing an issue where IdP-Initiated login attempts with a SAML connection appear to be looping back to the login page after submitting credentials.

Solution

The /authorize request created in steps 8/9 of this guide should have prompt=none included as a parameter so that the user who has already logged in from the IdP-Initiated login is not prompted to enter their credentials again.
