Hi, 

I'm having the same issue as Marius. I've checked the "Auto-launch the app when user signs into Okta." checkbox but login still navigates to /app/UserHome. I've tested in Chrome and Safari and neither redirect to my chosen app.

Any thoughts? @Marius did you find a resolution?

Thanks,

Colin

Hi,

I am using a workaround. I am not sure if it will work in all scenarios.

If you open the application you want to be autolaunched (I am using the actual app, not the bookmark), at the bottom there is an "App Embed Link" field, that looks kinda like this:

https://myOktaDomain.okta-emea.com/home/oidc_client/someID/someOtherID

This is not what I do, but I am guessing this would redirect the user correctly after login.

I am using SAML logins. How I got this to work was to add the "/home/oidc_client/someID/someOtherID" at the end of the IDP login link, that you get from the Identity Providers page in Okta (after configuring this up).

Hope some of this can help 🙂

Hi Marius,

Thanks for replying so quickly. I got it working using the App Embed link and setting it to the value of the redirecturl variable and forcing it to redirect on a successful response.

var orgUrl   = 'https://ORG.okta.com/';

 var str     = decodeURIComponent(window.location.href);

 var redirectUrl = 'https://ORG.okta.com/home/APP_NAME/CLIENT_ID/AUDIENCE_ID';

 var oktaSignIn = new OktaSignIn({baseUrl: orgUrl});

 oktaSignIn.renderEl(

   { el: '#okta-login-container' },

   function (res) {

     if (res.status === 'SUCCESS') {

       console.log(res)

       console.log('User %s successfully authenticated %o', res.user.profile.login, res.user);

       res.session.setCookieAndRedirect(redirectUrl);

     }

   }

 );

Hi Marius, Colin,

Can you explain in a bit more detail? I'm running into the same issue and am unfamiliar with they way you got it to work.

If it's not to much to ask, can you please do a step-by-step setup guide?

Really love to get this working.

Kind regards,

Mike

The problem seems to be that the application cannot be assigned when you check this setting. What I have found as a fix for this is:

• Remove all assignments
• Uncheck the setting
• Re-check the setting
• Reassign the application
