Thai,

We could also add an option in the Horizon's settings that automatically chooses one authentication workflow. At CERN we are trying to use websso with use of the SAML2 protocols as much as we can. That's said we automatically make users to use websso when they want to access their accounts via the dashboard.

Hint: This is being done by automatic redirect to predefined Keystone endpoint once user hits our dashboard's URL).

Hi Ioram,
Thanks for the feedback. I agree that the names are hard to follow, they can change to something more intuitive. Or we can even provide a tooltip for more information. As for the look and feel, I don't agree that its easier if all the options are listed. Image if you had 5 different ways for users to log in and they are all shown at once. That's a lot to take in. This approach keep things simply, it's really not that hard to pick from a list.

Hi Anton,
I'm just building on top of the visuals we already have without changing things too drastically. If you have a better idea, I would love to see it.

Hi Thai,

I agree with Anton that the names are not intuitive for users.

I would use something like:
- Local authentication (for local credentials)
- ?? (I also have no idea of what is a Default protocol)
- Authenticate using <name of IdPs or federation> (something which is easy to the user understand that he could use or not - this is for the discovery service or remote IdP)

Here in the University of Kent we used another approach.
Instead of selecting the method using a "list/combo" box, we present all the options in a single screen.
I think it's not beautiful, but functional.
I think it would be easier to the user if they could have all the options in a single interface, since it doesn't become too much loaded (visually polluted).

    Hi,

    I guess "Credentials" is login and password. I have no idea what
    is "Default Protocol" or "Discovery Service".
    The proposed UI is rather embarrassing.

        Hi all,

        I have been helping with the websso effort and wanted to get
        some feedback.
        Basically, users are presented with a login screen where they
        can select: credentials, default protocol, or discovery service.
        If user selects credentials, it works exactly the same way it
        works today.
        If user selects default protocol or discovery service, they
        can choose to be redirected to those pages.

        Keep in mind that this is a prototype, early feedback will be
        good.
        Here are the relevant patches:
        https://review.openstack.org/#/c/136177/
        https://review.openstack.org/#/c/136178/
        https://review.openstack.org/#/c/151842/

        I have attached the files and present them below:
