IdentityProvider: close() static method
Secure context: This feature is available only in secure contexts (HTTPS), in some or all supporting browsers.
Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
The close() static method of the IdentityProvider interface provides a manual signal to the browser that an IdP sign-in flow is finished.
Usage notes
close() needs to be called from the same origin as the IdP sign-in dialog, as defined in the IdP config.
close() is needed to close the IdP sign-in dialog when sign-in is completely finished and the IdP has finished collecting data from the user. A primary use case for close() is closing the IdP sign-in dialog in cases where the browser and the IdP login status become out of sync, and the browser initiates a dynamic sign-in flow to correct the issue.

None.
