Integrating Okta with Authomize
Integration with Okta provides visibility about your Okta users, groups, roles and the applications they can access. After integration, Authomize provides visibility into Okta and the applications (in Okta or other IDPs) that Okta supports as an Identity Provider, enabling improved identity security and automated access reviews.
