Eliminate Manual IdP selection by using user owner information

Current Behavior:
In a MAS environment with multiple IdPs, users are prompted to manually select which IdP to authenticate with. This can be confusing and negatively impacts the login experience.

Observation:
When users are created locally or synced via User Registry Sync, the owner field is populated with either "local" or the corresponding IdP name.

Proposal:
Leverage the stored owner field to automatically determine and route the user to the correct IdP, eliminating the need for manual IdP selection.

Benefit:
This enhancement simplifies the login process, improves user experience, and reduces the risk of users selecting the wrong IdP.

    Hi,

    Thank you for taking the time to provide your ideas to IBM. Unfortunately, after evaluating this idea, we don’t believe it aligns with our product strategy and roadmap. Therefore, we will not be considering it for inclusion in our product at this time. Thank you again for your feedback.

    Thank you for the idea but looking at the development effort vs current interest from other clients and users, we are moving it to 'Not Under Consideration' status. For time being we will monitor the voting and reassess after few months.

    Thank you for your idea. We are unable to deliver this functionality within the next 12-18months but we would like to leave this for future consideration by other clients and users.
