API & Authentication
Okta uses OAuth 2.0 to securely connect your organization's directory to Konnectify. This authorization flow redirects you to your custom Okta domain to authenticate, allowing Konnectify to perform directory actions on your behalf without ever seeing or storing your master administrator credentials.
The integration leverages Okta's Core API to securely read, write, and update users, groups, and application assignments in real-time.
Ensure your Okta administrator account has the necessary super admin or application admin privileges to authorize OAuth scopes. API rate limits are determined by your Okta organization's subscription tier.
For detailed endpoint specifications, refer to the official Okta API Reference Documentation.
How to Connect
- An active Okta organization domain (e.g.,
your-company.okta.com) - An Okta Administrator account with permission to manage OAuth applications
- Your Client ID and Client Secret from your Okta Developer Console registration
