I can certainly make my UserService use our deprecated SSO system to validate the token but I don't know how to mimic what IdentityServer's controllers do on a successful login.\r\n\r\nOption 1: Build a controller with a separate mapping and have it create the response.\r\nOption 2: Make my SSO provider an identity provider for IdentityServer.  Have that provider do the deprecated SSO lookup and generate a token for IdentityServer to validate and accept.\r\nOption 3: Something much easier that I don't know about.  (Something clever in preauthenticate?)\r\n\r\nAny help is appreciated.\r\n\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/IdentityServer/IdentityServer3/issues/comments/169791345","html_url":"https://github.com/IdentityServer/IdentityServer3/issues/2385#issuecomment-169791345","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/IdentityServer/IdentityServer3/issues/2385","id":169791345,"user":{"login":"codesilverback","id":864489,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/864489?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/codesilverback","html_url":"https://github.com/codesilverback","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/codesilverback/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/codesilverback/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/codesilverback/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/codesilverback/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/codesilverback/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/codesilverback/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/codesilverback/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/codesilverback/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/codesilverback/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-01-07T20:06:50Z","updated_at":"2016-01-07T20:06:50Z","body":"OK.  Now that I posted the logs, I see it.  The identityProvider I give must be in the client's restriction list.  That makes sense.  Thanks a bunch."}}
