Solution

Method 1

To retrieve an application's creation date or date of last update, perform an API call. The following example uses Postman, a popular REST API client.

  1. Configure Postman to use the Okta API using the instructions in the Okta Support article How to Integrate Postman with Okta.
  2. Perform the List Applications API call. The syntax for all apps is:
    • GET {{url}} /api/v1/apps.

List Applications API call  

           3. This will return a JSON formatted response of all applications, with the date created and the date updated included.

NOTE: The API call will return a maximum of 200 results by default.

 

Method 2

Retrieve the same information using the Rockstar extension from the Chrome web store. With the extension enabled and active, perform the following steps:

  1. Log on to the Okta Admin Dashboard.
  2. Navigate to Applications > Applications.
  3. The Rockstar app will display the option to Export Apps (Custom).
  4. Click the option, and a window will open, allowing for several additional options to be selected, including Created Date.
  5. Once selected, click Export
  6. A CSV file will then be downloaded to the local system with the relevant information.
