<div>Is it possible to manually invoke the Shibboleth SP?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Ie instead of the following flow:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>User attempts to access secured resource -> shibboleth sp is invoked by apache -> sp redirects to appropriate idp</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We could do:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>User clicks button -> sp redirects to idp</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Furthermore, is it possible to tell the SP via a URL parameter or otherwise which IDP to send the AuthNRequest to?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Hope Im making sense.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks!</div>
