Hi all,
I have a situation where we want to use auth0 as a service provider in a IdP initiated SSO flow. In this situation I have a web app where users can log in via our own authentication. Once they log into our platform though, we have a section where if they click on a certain item they will be redirected to that URL. This is where Auth0 comes in handy as a service provider to redirect them after authentication.
Based on my understanding, this is what the flow should look like:
-
User successfully logs into my web application.
-
User clicks to navigate to a new webpage and wants to be logged in there.
-
IdP (my site) sends SAML token containing user data to Auth0 Application
-
Service provider (auth0 app) takes request and then calls the applications callback.
-
My callback endpoint gets data from auth0 and then redirects user
I guess what I don’t fully understand is what endpoint do I send my user data to in my auth0 application and if I have the correct understanding of the IdP-Initiated SSO flow.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, looking forward to responses!
