Hello, @561oz (561oz)
Thanks for reaching out! I would like to know if you can provide some more details on this so we can help you.
Any config that you might think is not right or any screenshot will help.
Vicente
Okta, Inc
Here's our current client agent config.
Config: "C:\Program Files\Okta\Okta Windows Credential Provider\config\rdp_app_config.json"
{
"Url": "https://XXXXXXXX.okta.com",
"ClientId": "0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX97",
"ClientSecret": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX+Q==",
"FilterCredentialProvider": true,
"InternetFailOpenOption": true,
"RdpOnly": false,
"WidgetTimeOutInSeconds": 180,
"ErrorTimeOutInSeconds": 30,
"EnforceTimeoutVersionAgnostic": false,
"SslPinningEnabled": true,
"DisplayPasswordResetLink": false
}
To replicate the issue:
I made a case:
Case 01240186
Was there a solution for this issue? I'm trying out WCP and getting the same logoff results. Really annoying.
Hello Okta Community!
We have reviewed this internally and after the repro efforts by one of our engineers this behavior comes by design as a security measure. An Okta idea has been created already by the customer Darren DeHaven here: https://ideas.okta.com/app/#/case/142433. If you are seeing this behavior please access the link and up vote the idea so our engineering team can review it and evaluate it for future roadmaps.
I don't think that Okta realizes how this is a bad design, a bad signal to customers and the community overall. The initial problem was reported 6 months ago. No response, no help. Nothing !!!
Very annoying !!!
