9bu0v (9bu0v) asked a question.

user authentication through Okta api

One of our client used OneLogin as SSO provider and we used SAML assertion endpoint with user credentials and bearer token.

Here is the link for reference - https://developers.onelogin.com/api-docs/1/saml-assertions/generate-saml-assertion

Considering if client wants to switch to Okta, what is equivalent process using Okta api? 


  • Hi A M, thanks for your question. Good to hear that your client's looking to move to Okta. I've asked my Support colleagues to look into this for you.

  • Hello,

     

    Thank you for contacting Okta!

     

    Okta also uses the SAML authentication, you can find more details regarding that following the link: 

    https://www.okta.com/integrate/documentation/saml/

     

    We have Pre-Built SAML apps already integrated in our OIN (Okta Integration Network) but you can also create custom SAML apps with Okta. More information about creating a custom SAML app can be found accesing the following link:

    Hi Alexandru,

     

    Thanks for the info. But what I am looking here is user authentication endpoint which takes username, password and any other required parameter and authenticates the user. This will be used for iPad application. iPad application is using web service at our end to communicate with SSO provider (in this case Okta api).

    Can you please suggest the required endpoint with parameters?
