Hi,

 

I noticed it is not possible to redirect a users back to the topic page where the login flow was started when using SSO authentification.

 

This is quite disturbing as this will generate this kind of flows for non logged in users:

  1. User clicks on a topic :thumbsup:
  2. User clicks on text editor (to add a comment)  :thumbsup: 
  3. User will be prompted to log in (via SSO in our case)  :thumbsup: 
  4. User will log in via SSO  :thumbsup: 
  5. User will be redirected to the home page and not to the topic of step 1 :scream:

 

This would highly improve the UX if you could pass a variable/parameter with the returnURL during the SSO authentification that we could use to send the user back to the page he/she is expecting.

 

Thanks

Hello @victorlacombe thanks a lot for your idea, this makes a lot of sense. We currently have the exact behavior you described for login in using an email/password. I will investigate this for SSO with the team of engineers and get back to you.

In the mean time I will leave this idea open to gather some votes

Hello everyone, I'm closing this idea as the feature is already in place and has been for a while actually. Users that log in using SSO should be redirected to the initial page.

@victorlacombe could you check if you are still experiencing the issue? If it doesn't work there might be a an issue specially for your set up. In that case, you can reach our support team
