ol2qq (ol2qq) asked a question.
Hi,
My company has several web app not Internet facing, means not accessible from Internet but these web app can access Internet. They support SAML2.0 So my question is: Can I still use Okta to do Single Sign On for them?
Cheers,
JJ

The application must be able to redirect to Okta for the Identity assessment and must expose a callback url for Okta to provide the SAML information
Hi Jorge,
Thanks for your answer. But I don't think SP need to expose a callback URL to Oka (iDP), because SP and iDP actually don't talk to each other, all their communication is through web browsers.
Hi JJ,
My name is Valentin from the Okta support team.
There are some requirements that are needed in order to set the applications from the SP side, to have a proper connection using SAML. Please refer to our guide regarding this:
https://developer.okta.com/docs/guides/saml-application-setup/overview/
Also please review this article we found very helpful in understanding how SAML works IDP and SP initiated, and how login flows should work, and what exactly happens in the back end.

If you do have any issues with setting everything up, I would recommend opening a support case with our team so we can have a more in depth discussion regarding the whole setup, and the flow you wish to achieve.
Regards,
Valentin Ion
Okta Support Engineer.
