VivekS.64167 (Customer) asked a question.
Adding Okta platform as an application with Pingfederate
I got a project where Okta already working and having 100 applications with it.
They got about 100 more new applications to be federate / SSO with new solution PingFederate.
They don't want to disturb their Okta for time being but what they are looking for is to integrate Okta as a whole plateform into PingFederate as an application. So that once user authenticate via Ping he should get the Okta dashboard where all 100 old applications will have the icon and SSO works from there.
Is that a possible options ?
Vlad here with Okta's Customer Support Team, thank you for reaching out to us.
Okta can be used as an SP but what you're looking for is a custom Okta app that should be configured in the iDP side. There's an app that works like this between two Okta orgs - it's called Org2org. If you were to build one on PingFederate, you should get the same result.
Here you can find information about what Okta offers. If you have specific configuration issues, we ask that you open a Support case.
