Problem

When doing IdP-initiated SSO, we need our users to be redirected to a certain page of our Atlassian product. How can we achieve this?


Solution

SAML SSO allows setting a Default Redirect URL which will be used if no redirect URL was sent by the identity provider.


To configure this, go to the SAML SSO configuration, click the Redirection tab, and scroll down to the Default Redirect URL. You must enter a relative URL, e.g. /secure/Dashboard.jspa



Please note this feature is usually not applicable when you just navigate to your without IdP-initiated SSO. In this case, the "after authentication" URL is simply the base URL. Thus, the default redirect URL is not used.
