I was trying to add a domain federation with office 365 through OKTA. I entered tenant name and then OKTA ask to fectch and select domain thats fine for me and clear to me.
My question is that : OKTA ask to authenticate global administrator user from office 365 what is the purpose of this and why okta creates application named as Okta Microsoft Graph Client in my office account. what is the purpose of this application ?

Do you have provisioning enabled? If so, it needs GA permissions. See section 2: https://help.okta.com/en/prod/Content/Topics/Apps/Office365-Deployment/provision-users.htm
