SAML for admins auto login or redirect to idp?

L1 Bithead

I've successfully  configure SAML with a Shibboleth IDP for administrator access, however, the login process still requires two clicks : One to select SSO, and another to continue without a username. I'd like to provide a better user experience for admins/customers and ideally eliminate all clicks. Is there a specific URL or configuration that would enable an auto redirect behavior for a seamless login?

As a hack, here's some html that provides a single link that would take you to the admin login and initiate an SSO automatically.  Since it appears we can only submit these parameters via POST, we have to simulate that....

 

<html>
<script>
function submitForm() {
var myform = document.getElementById("goform");
myform.submit();
};
</script>
<body>
<form id='goform' action="https://<firewall>/php/login.php" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="submitSamlForm" value="saml_ok">
<input type="hidden" name="username" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="submitSaml" value="Continue..."></inpyt>
</form>
<a href="#" id="golink" onClick="submitForm()">TEST</a>
</body>
</html>
