If you don’t want a specific provider to show up at the Login Selector UI (e.g. to only support third-party initiated login) you can hide it with `showInSelector` setting set to `false`. However, in this case, the provider is presented in the provider chain and may be consulted during authentication based on its `order`. To disable the provider, use the `enabled` setting.
If you don’t want a specific provider to show up at the Login Selector UI (for example, if you only want to support third-party initiated login) you can hide it with `showInSelector` setting set to `false`. Or, if you only want to show a provider for a specific origin(s), you can use the `origin` setting. However, in both cases the provider is still part of the provider chain and may be used during authentication based on its order. To fully disable a provider, use the `enabled` setting.

::::{tip}
The Login Selector UI can also be disabled or enabled with `xpack.security.authc.selector.enabled` setting.
