NelsonL.79519 (Customer) asked a question.
Hi Support,
When On-premised Actove Directory users are removed from Okta it didn't deviated the account automatically until I have to performed a manual full import. Take note I have setup JIT with 1 hour interval sync.
Another question how can I perform a bulk deletion automatically for deactivate users.
Hello Nelson,
That is the expected behavior, because unless you use Realtime Sync, only the next import will update the user data and reflect the AD status, which is set to 1 hour in your environment, in this case.
Real-time sync updates user profiles, groups, and group memberships during sign-in instead of waiting for a scheduled import. You do not have to import all the users in your directory beforehand. Real-time sync also updates user information whenever you load or refresh a user's People page. See Using the Okta People page for more information.
https://help.okta.com/en/prod/Content/Topics/Directory/Directory_People.htm
Administrators can change organizational units (OUs), user profile information, and group information in Active Directory (AD) and users are immediately updated.
We currently do not have a bulk deletion option in the User Interface, but you can make use of the Okta API to automate user deletion.
If you have any further questions or concerns, please open a ticket with support so we can better assist you.
Thank you,

Hello Nelson,
You must install AD Agent 3.0.9 or later to use real-time sync. See the following documentation for more information: https://help.okta.com/en/prod/Content/Topics/Directory/okta-active-directory-agent.htm?Highlight=active%20directory
Thank you,
