Hi Sharon,
We are not using a WAYFless URL - when I asked Jisc/Airbus about WAYFless URLs, I was told that WAYFless URLs are not supported for this resource. If others have different information on that I'd be interested to know and I'll follow up with them to query that.
This is our login process:
If users go to https://jisc.geostore.com/jisc/#/home then at this point they are unauthenticated. There is no IP authentication for Jisc Geospatial - so regardless of where users are coming from, when they land on the homepage they are unauthenticated.
Any user can browse across the site - this is unrestricted. To/access, interact with the data requires institutional login. In order to login, we instruct users to go through these steps:
- Click My Account
- Click Login
- go through WAYF steps to select institution and enter University login credentials
- user is now authenticated on the site (institution account number displays - not very meaningful to a student, I agree) + can access data collections
[first time users need to accept terms and conditions before accessing collections - pop up box appears after they have provided valid institutional login credentials.]
As I was told that WAYFless URLs weren't supported, I didn't think there was another route for logging in via Shibboleth other than going through those steps...
Regards,
Fiona

Hi,
We are looking at this again. However, we are still having an issue with the login whether this is via the WAYF or WAYFless routes.
After "logging in", in both cases, I see no indication that I am, in fact, logged in. Instead I have to click on the Account link, then Login. At this point I am finally recognised as U74859 which is apparently our account code.
Is anyone else seeing this.
Many thanks,
Sharon
