Default application login configuration and other routing based options

Problem

There are some use cases that I want to solve:

We'll call the "default" URL the 302 location that is returned by FusionAuth when navigating to the root URL. For example, when navigating to https://login.pipedpiper.com, you are currently redirected to the FusionAuth admin application login form.

This default behavior may not be ideal, see #378.

Use cases:

1. Redirect the user to the login page for one of the configured applications.
2. Have an empty landing page that is branded, and optionally a small button to access the "admin login" which would take you to the FusionAuth admin login.
3. Redirect to an external web page. For example, navigating to https://login.piedpiper.com may redirect you to http://piedpiper.com which would be the primary branded site page for your company.
4. Allow the user to login w/out an application Id - and then be dropped onto a user self service landing page with options to edit your password, modify user data etc.
5. Based upon the Host or the Referer header, modify the behavior of this workflow
   • This may allow you to change the default application based upon where the user is coming from, for example https://company-A.com or https://company-B.com. This may be helpful in white labeling or similar cases.
6. Using a lambda, look up the user from the provided loginId and then pass that user to a lambda and allow the lambda to identify which identity provider to redirect the user to. This would be an enhanced version of the current domain based forwarding that occurs when you configure the domain option on the SAML or OIDC IdP.

Solution

TBD

Alternatives/workarounds

Use some external proxy or routing configuration to accomplish most of this.
