Azure AD B2B Direct Federation
Hello,
We currently use OKTA as our IDP for internal and external users. We are currently in the middle of a project, where we want to leverage MS O365 SharePoint Online Guest Sharing. However, we want to make sure that the guest users use OKTA as the IDP. For this to occur, we could create, Azure AD Direct Federation with a Third party identity Provider, which has OKTA in as supported (this Azure AD feature, still in preview still though) .
I need to know, if OKTA has any documentation for this or has anyone else used / configured this Azure AD direct federation with OKTA to be the IDP? if Yes, can you provide some reference article link please?
Hi Jeff,
Please find below several pieces of documentation regarding the integration between Okta and Azure. As this is a complex integration and involves several parties, we highly recommend opening a ticket with our Support team that could better guide you through this process. You are also correct in that we do not have specific documentations on the topic, since our articles are backed up by Support and exist for our-of-the-box implementations which this would not be. For this our recommendation would be to leverage an Okta partner to perform this deployment. For the Okta Partners portal, please navigate to https://www.okta.com/partners/
