Problem Definition

Currently, when you create a SAML integration and configure it to be used by the Portal-only users too (migrating their portal accounts to an Atlassian Account with no application access) when the user enters his/her email address, a button appears to redirect them to the Identity Provider to be authenticated.

It is an additional (an unnecessary) step until the user is able to access the product.

Note: more details about the difference between a Portal account and an Atlassian Account can be found here.

Suggested Solutions

Create a feature to automatically redirect the SAML users to the Identity Provider side after the email information is fulfilled as it happens at https://id.atlassian.com.
