Abstract
An identity provider receives a request to configure authentication for enabling single sign-on to a service provider. The identity provider identifies the authentication protocols supported by the service provider and determines whether it is compatible with these authentication protocols. As a result of the identity provider being compatible with at least some of the authentication protocols, the identity provider generates configuration information that is usable by the service provider to configure the authentication. The identity provider transmits, to a computer system, a response that causes the computer system to be redirected to the service provider in order to provide information usable by the service provider to obtain the configuration information.
