Utilizaing Oauth2.0 login_hint

Hi experts,

Has anyone tried or used the login_hint parameter in Azure?

I am integrating the F5 APM and Azure AD (which OIDC is working), and one of my goals is to improve the user experience by auto filling-up the username. However, I can't see any documentation from F5 on how to properly use this in F5 APM.

Thank you.

    This is straight forward to implement.

    Add a login_hint parameter with value %{session.logon.last.username} to your AuthRedirectRequest.

      I think yours is different, the authentication is from Azure. So, technically you don't have the session logon variable in APM.

    You can populate the parameter with each session variable apm has. If apm does not know the user, how it should populate the login_hint?
