I want to use keycloak as SAML IDP & websphere as SP.  
This would be SP Initiated flow where user will be start using application URL & then will be redirected to keycloak.  
Websphere version: 8.5.5.16  
Keycloak version: 8.0.2

I would appreciate if someone can guide me with steps?

Thanks  
Abhijai
