Local login with SAML? /login not working

Hi there,

I have recently configured saml in openDistro and it is working as expected. What I am trying to figure out is how to login local with it.

I have basic_internal_auth as order: 0 and saml_auth_domain as order: 1 in the config. I found that with elastic you would type /login at the end of the url but in my case I get send to the idp either way.

Is there a different magic url that gets me to the local login screen?

basic_internal_auth_domain:
description: "Authenticate via HTTP Basic against internal users database"
http_enabled: true
transport_enabled: true
###  - start
#order: 4
order: 0
###  - end
http_authenticator:
  type: basic
  #challenge: true
  challenge: false
authentication_backend:
  type: internal
###  - start
saml_auth_domain:
	  #enabled: true
order: 1
http_authenticator:
	type: 'saml'
	challenge: true
	config:
		idp:
			metadata_file: 
			entity_id: https:
		sp:
			entity_id: urn:
		kibana_url: http:/
		subject_key: urn:oid
		roles_key: urn:oid:
		exchange_key: ''
authentication_backend:
	type: noop
###  - end

@lorenzo95 it seems currently there is no way to log in through kibana using basic auth if kibana has been configured to use SAML or other protocols. The basic auth option is then only accessible via direct access to elasticsearch such as curl etc, hope this helps
