Connecting to Okta as a Directory

Introduction

This guide covers using YeshID’s Okta integration to connect your Okta organization as a directory.

Once connected, YeshID imports:

• Users, including supported profile information, account status, and last sign-in information

• MFA enrollment indicators

• Groups

• Group memberships

• Active Okta applications

When application-access imports are configured, YeshID also imports users’ assignments to those applications.

With the appropriate API-token permissions and management configuration, YeshID can also manage:

• User creation, profile updates, activation, suspension, deactivation, and deletion

• Adding users to and removing users from Okta-managed groups

Generate your API Key in Okta

1. Log into Okta as a SuperAdmin and navigate to Security > API

2. Navigate to Tokens > Create Token

3. Name the token something memorable, like YeshID, and click Create

4. Save the token information somewhere safe, we will use this information in the next section
