Hi Damari,

Thanks for reaching out to us!

Okta is an identity and access management solution which provides Single Sign On (SSO), Multi-factor authentication, lifecycle management, API access management, universal directory, advanced server access and much more.

To integrate OKTA with the Hexnode account, the API token needs to be created from the OKTA account.
Kindly follow the below steps to create an API token:

  • Log in to your Okta account.
  • Go to Security > API >Tokens.
  • Click on Create Token.
  • Enter a token name and click on Create Token.
  • Copy and save the created token in a secure place.
  • Once the API token is created, navigate to your Hexnode portal > Admin > OKTA > Enter your OKTA domain name and API Token.

Please note that the OKTA domain name needs to be of the form “portal name.okta.com” and not “portal name-admin.okta.com”. If it is the latter, user & group sync and the directory integration will be successful, but self-enrollment by the users will be blocked.
