Hiding particular applications from user selectable list?
Hello, does anyone know if there's a way to hide a particular application so users do not try to add it in Okta?
For example, we have SAML integrated apps which are provisioned through our helpdesk, but users keep adding the SWA variant and creating their own personal account (not on our corporate side) and keep complaining that they don't have access to things.
There seems to be a way to hide the entire list, but we also don't want to limit people from adding other apps. We just want to hide the non SAML versions that conflict.
Only org-managed apps can be restricted for end users. If "Allow users to add personal apps" is enabled in the App Catalog Settings for Self Service, users can add any apps from the Okta app catalog that your org has not added, and that only require a username and password for account creation.

That's a bummer. Is there a philosophy behind not being able to control the "personal" apps?
Perhaps there could be a feature add request to block apps?
