Using screen_hint parameter at /samlp endpoint

Last Updated Jun 26, 2024

Overview

With the New Universal Login, it is possible to include a screen_hint=signup parameter in the /authorize request to have the Universal Login page load on the sign up screen. When Auth0 is the acting as the IdP in SAML flows, the same screen_hint parameter is not automatically going to the sign up screen when the Universal Login page loads.

Cause

While Okta docs state that the screen_hint=signup parameter is supported in requests to the /authorize endpoint, the same is not true for the /samlp endpoint, which is used when Auth0 is the IdP.

Solution

While this is not supported at the moment we do have a backlog item in to potentially address it.
