Okta Apps Integration

This guide will show you how to setup an integration between Indent and Okta Apps. Once complete, you'll be able to use Indent to grant team members temporary access to apps in minutes.

Indent + Okta App Integration

This integration works by managing users access to Okta Apps by moving them in and out of Okta Groups to provision and deprovision access. This enables teams to control Okta App access using time-bound, role-based access control.
