Provision people from Okta

Let Okta add, change and remove people and teams through SCIM.

In short

Connect Okta once. People you assign to the app join the organization, changes follow, and pushed groups become teams.

Before you start

Make the token

  1. Open your organization, then Settings › "Security and data", and find "Provisioning (SCIM)".
  2. Copy the "SCIM address".
  3. Optional: tick "People it adds may take a paid seat". Leave it off to keep provisioning within the seats you have.
  4. Press "Make a token" and copy the token. It is shown only this once.

Set up Okta

  1. In the Okta Admin Console open "Applications" › "Applications" › "Create App Integration", choose "SWA" or "SAML 2.0", and finish the app.
  2. On the app's "General" tab press "Edit" under "App Settings", tick "Enable SCIM provisioning" and save.
  3. On the "Provisioning" tab press "Edit": paste the SCIM address into "SCIM connector base URL", type userName as "Unique identifier field for users", tick "Push New Users", "Push Profile Updates" and "Push Groups", choose "HTTP Header" as "Authentication Mode" and paste the token into "Authorization". Press "Test Connector Configuration", then "Save".
  4. Under "Provisioning" › "To App" press "Edit", turn on "Create Users", "Update User Attributes" and "Deactivate Users", and save.
  5. On "Assignments" assign the people and groups; on "Push Groups" push the groups that should become teams.
