Okta Sign On Policy Not Getting Updated Through Postman Collection

I'm trying to update a rule on a sign on policy to switch to persistent cookies. I'm using the postman collection provided by Okta to do so. Retrieving Information through the get requests is working fine, I can see all my policies and rules but when I try to update one of my rules, it sends back 200 status and the policy remains unchanged.

    I've had a ticket open for this same bug for 6 months. No update yet.

    Hey @raj.nadimpalli1.5634849829812683E12 (Okta)​ I had also submitted a case and I provided the okta request id over the email. But here's a general request response.

    Request URL:

    <Okta domain url>/api/v1/policies/<policy id>/rules/<rule id>

    Body:

    {

        "name": "Persistent Sessions",

        "actions": {

            "signon": {

     

                "session": {

                    "usePersistentCookie": true,

                    "maxSessionIdleMinutes": 120,

                    "maxSessionLifetimeMinutes": 0

                }

            }

        },

     

        "type": "SIGN_ON"

    }

     

    Part of the Response:

     

     "actions": {

            "signon": {

                "access": "ALLOW",

                "requireFactor": false,

                "primaryFactor": "PASSWORD_IDP",

                }

            }

        },

    This is the exact same attribute I've been trying to update for 6 months and had a ticket open.

     

    Okta support, please see case #01009806

      Hey @NateO.69773 (Customer)​ 

      This got resolved for me. I was missing 'https' at the beginning of the request that's all. Also the persistent session doesn't work for admins/superadmins on okta. Only for the regular users. Hope this helps!

      • NateO.69773 (Customer)

        Wow, thank you for responding! This resolved my issue as well.

         

        Open ticket with Okta for over 6 months :D

         

        Thanks Gourav!!
