I want to create a group of applications and then assign those groups to the users or user group. The user will then access the application through SSO
Is it possible with okta.

May Okta Community Buzz

that will work, in a nutshell thats exactly what Universal Directory and Single Sign On do within Okta. Of course there are dozens of methods, conditions and things to think of, but yes, this is definitely possible.
regards!
Thanks for the response
Can you suggest the steps that I can follow to segregate the application into a group and then assign that group to a user
Hi Manish!
Thanks for posting on our community! We're glad that we can help you out!
As HenkJan mentioned, this is 100% achievable.
And here's a more in depth view and configuration that you can take advantage of.(Assuming that we're looking at either AD/Okta Mastered Groups and the users already exists in Okta)
We will be more than happy to discuss and elaborate what you can achieve with group rules for automation, if you call us or open a support ticket. However, here are some helpful links that can get you going avoiding the hustle of calling us.

what he said :point_up: :D
Let me be very specific with the problem.
Two different "application group" can have same applications.
Hi Manish,
I'm glad that you are interested in what I like to call a first assessment on the desired workflow.
Since we want to express value to your needs and we don't want to share personal information on our community page, I will recommend opening a support ticket with us, sharing a best phone number to be reached at and we can have an engineer helping you understanding what you can achieve with okta.
If you will wish to call us and have an engineer open the support ticket for you, here are the information:
US: 800-219-0964

FR: 0800 91 49 49
NL: 0800 022 4471
UK: 0800 808 5574
As soon as we will receive your support request, it will be just a matter of minutes to be reached by one of my colleagues. Who knows, maybe I will be the engineer assigned to the case.
Thank you,
