Connect action in the Okta package
Use the Connect action in the Okta package to establish a secure session with Okta by validating the tenant domain and OAuth 2.0 connection.
This action uses OAuth 2.0 authentication to safely authenticate and
authorize the bot, enabling secure interaction with Okta.
Before using the Connect action, ensure the OAuth 2.0 connection is properly configured in the Control Room with the following scopes:
- okta.users.read
- okta.users.manage
- okta.groups.read
- okta.groups.manage
Settings
The following settings are available in the Connect action:
- Domain URL
- Enter the Okta tenant domain to connect to, for example companyabc.okta.com. This field is required and must match the Okta domain.
- OAuth2 Connection
- Enter the Control Room managed OAuth2 connection used for authentication. This field is required.
- Okta session
- Use one of the following tabs for creating a session:
- Local session: To specify a session name that can be used only in the current automation.
- Global session: To specify a session name
that can be used across multiple automation, such as parent and
child.Note: The parent and child bots should have the same package version.
- Variable: To specify or create a session variable that stores the value.
