Make jamf connect pop up on mismatch

After initial setup, when a users password is detected as a mismatch Jamf connect just pops up a little notification in the corner with vague (to a user) wording about IDP and local passwords mismatching.

Is it possible to make the actual Jamf Connect window pop up and not be closed until the user re-links their passwords? I went through all the options on https://docs.jamf.com/jamf-connect/2.1.0/administrator-guide/Menu_Bar_App_Preferences.html and RequireSignIn is enabled but it seems that is just for first run.

Alternatively can I specify the language in the notification so the user understands what is happening?

You can try to leverage the OnAuthFailure Menu Bar script setting and have a script that clears the Jamf Connect keychain entry and then force quits the app. If all the plumbing is in place this will throw the prompt up that they then need to login again, but this can be pretty distracting and you may also get false positives like if someone were to accidentally lock their account or the like.
