Configure Disabled Mode Discovery

Disabled mode is the simplest discovery configuration. Users see a list of all enabled identity providers and manually select the one they want to use.

When to use Disabled mode

Use this mode when:

• Setting up or testing new authentication configurations
• Operating simple environments with only one or two providers
• You want users to explicitly choose their authentication method
• You're not using multi-tenant or multi-provider scenarios

How it works

1. User arrives at the login page
2. User sees a list of all enabled identity providers
3. User manually clicks the provider they want to use
4. User is redirected to that provider for authentication

Enable Disabled mode

Disabled mode is the default configuration for SecureAuth Connect. No additional setup is required.

To verify Disabled mode is active:

1. In SecureAuth Connect, go to Authentication > Providers.
2. Click the Discovery tab.
3. Confirm that Disabled is selected.

If Intelligent Discovery or Orchestrated Discovery is selected, click on Disabled to switch back to this mode.

Verify your configuration

Test that users can see and select from your available providers:

1. Go to a test application in your workspace.
2. Click Sign in.
3. Verify that all enabled providers appear on the login page.
4. Click each provider to confirm they are active and functional.
