AlanL.32187 (Customer) asked a question.
Being signed into two applications at the same time.
I've got a setup that has two applications with different URLs and I want the same set of users to be able to sign into both. I've setup two applications in Okta with the different URLs and they both individually work. The issue seems to be when I sign into one the user will get signed out of the other. I'm sure this should work because I don't get signed out of dev-okta which is the same account.
I've got both applications setup as "Web" applications and both are using C* ASPNet Core, and both have the same users as their groups as assigned to both applications.
I'm sure I've misunderstood something about this whole setup and this is my first time using OAuth so I'm feeling a bit lost. Thanks.
Is your both app use same Authorization Server ? e.g https://abc.oktapreview.com/oauth2/default. Also check the Access Policy of that Auth server.
Yes both apps are using the same default authorization server which I haven't changed any of the policies. Looking at the options on a rule, I don't see anything that obviously makes it so that you can only be signed into one app at a time, is there something that I should be looking for?
Thanks.
Hi Alan,
Are you using Secure Web Authentication (SWA) as the Sign-on Method, or are you using some other type of Sign-on Method?
Hi Tim,
I'm not sure how to tell. I'm using a lot of the defaults that come after creating a "Web" application C# server.
Hi Alan,
From the Admin Panel, go to Applications, and select Applications. Select the application you're referring to. From there, go to the Sign On tab. What does it show selected under Sign On Methods?
Hi Tim,
I'm not completely sure what you meant by Admin Panel. I changed to the Classic UI and went to Applications from there, which does have a mention of Sign On Methods, unlike the Developer UI. Under Sign On Methods there's only one selected option OpenID Connect.
