#### User Login Flow

When the user enters their email on the service login page, they will be redirected to OneIdP. From there, OneIdP will redirect the user to the chosen identity provider (PureID, in this case) for authentication. Once the identity provider authenticates the user, then user will be asked for OneIdP Compliance.Once the compliance is pass then user can access the service.
