Okta Integration

Prev Next

Okta is an integrated identity management service that leverages an on-demand cloud platform and secure integration with existing Active Directory infrastructure.  

Okta’s core service is a multi-tenant solution with an Active Directory agent that installs locally but without any appliances or servers to buy or maintain. Okta’s agent makes a secure, outbound-only connection over HTTPS. After Okta authenticates a user with the cloud application, all ongoing traffic is between the user and the application.

Okta supports delegated authentication, provisioning and de-provisioning, directory sync, and Active Directory password management. Whenever a change occurs in either direction between Active Directory or Okta, those changes are synchronized incrementally. An administrator can deactivate a user in the Okta Universal Directory, and the user’s record in the Active Directory will also be deactivated instantly.

Requirements

  • Okta Single Sign-On, with the option to create an OpenID Connect Application

  • CivicPlus does not support the setup of an Okta account or the implementation of any Okta requirements.

  • Users must have an Active Directory email address with the following:

    • An organizationally unique domain ([email protected])

    • Non-organizationally unique emails ([email protected]) can be used for logging on to CivicPlus SSO but cannot be integrated with an Okta log-on.
