Description

Please confirm the following

  • I agree to follow this project's code of conduct.
  • I have checked the current issues for duplicates.
  • I understand that AWX is open source software provided for free and that I might not receive a timely response.

Feature type

Enhancement to Existing Feature

Feature Summary

When requesting an authorization-code at /api/o/authorize, users can't use SAML to login.

image

I see 2 possible feature enhancement to correct that :

  1. Display an SAML login button on that page
  2. Redirect to web UI login page, then redirect to /api/o/authorize

Select the relevant components

  • UI
  • API
  • Docs
  • Collection
  • CLI
  • Other

Steps to reproduce

  • Add an SAML provider in AWX settings.
  • Make sure to logout from AWX.
  • Go to /api/o/authorize route, it redirects you to /api/login/?next=/api/o/authorize/

Current results

Users are only able to login with username + password.

Sugested feature result

Users should be able to login via SAML.

Additional information

Contributor guide

Research direction
Inspect the /api/login/ view and template to identify where to add a SAML login button. Also examine existing SAML authentication flow in the codebase.
