n4uay (n4uay) asked a question.
I would like to be able to use OKTA to manage groups for hashicorp vault where I put users from google that I use as idp. I know this is doable.
The vault integration of Vault is great in the sense that's easy to manage users and groups with okta however it seems to have a huge problem. You cannot login with Google as your idp, you do not get prompted to login with Google from vault, it just asks for a username and password from okta.
This is a no go for us, we do not want to manage authentication with okta, only authorization. If this is not possible we would not be purchasing okta, if it is however we would have a very powerful incentive to do so because managing groups via raw OIDC auth method is a little tedious.
I have found this thread:

It seems that what I am trying to do is not possible, but if I am mistaken please do let me know.
