2biv6 (2biv6) asked a question.
I have two different questions but it's on same topic: Azure Portal Login and Office 365 Okta Integration
How Okta's integration with Office 365 will also allow us to manage Azure Portal logins through the same Okta App?
Can you explain to me how flows working on the backend?
And, In order to use Okta as an identity provider for the Azure Portal only (by not integrating with Office 365), what are the possible solutions? Azure Portal login has the capabilities of SWA but I would like to configure SAML on it, but not using Office 365 integrations.

Hi @2biv6 (2biv6) ,
Microsoft 365 uses Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) to manage user identities behind the scenes. When you use 'Microsoft Office 365' application in Okta for federation, Azure AD is federated with Okta. So, yes, Azure Portal logins will be managed through the same Okta App.
for a long time we used aadconnect and adfs with okta as the mfa.
