==== Parameters Forwarding
The {{book.project.name}} initial authorization endpoint request has support for various parameters. Most of the parameters are described in
http://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-core-1_0.html#AuthorizationEndpoint[OIDC specification] . Some parameters are added automatically by adapter based
on the adapter configuration. However there are also few parameters, which can be added on per-invocation basis. When you open the secured application URI,
the particular parameter will be forwarded to the {{book.project.name}} authorization endpoint.
For example, if you request offline token, then you can open the secured application URI with the `scope` parameter like:
[source]
----
http://myappserver/mysecuredapp?scope=offline_access
----
and the parameter `scope=offline_access` will be automatically forwarded to the {{book.project.name}} authorization endpoint.
The supported parameters are actually:
* scope
* prompt
* max_age
* login_hint
* kc_idp_hint
Most of the parameters are described in the http://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-core-1_0.html#AuthorizationEndpoint[OIDC specification].
The only exception is parameter `kc_idp_hint`, which is specific to {{book.project.name}} and contains the name of Identity provider to automatically use.
More info in {{book.adminguide.link}}[{{book.adminguide.name}}] in `Identity Brokering` section.
