When configuring a portal with SSO authentication, it is common to deactivate the portal's login form, and redirect users to an SSO login page.
By default, the login form is active. By selecting the Hide the credentials form if an SSO realm is configured check box in the Credentials form section of the Authentication administration interface:
-
If there is one SSO realm, users that select the Sign In button are automatically redirected to the SSO's authentication workflow.
-
If there is more than one SSO realm, users that select the Sign In button access the Sign In page, where:
- Icons allow users to connect to each SSO realm.
- The email and password form is hidden.
It is still possible to use the portal's normal email and password form when the credentials form is hidden by accessing /login?direct=true. For example:
