Hello,
Is there a way to automate application assignments to users who try to log into an unassigned app for the first time? For example, We have users who have access to other applications in Okta but we want the user to only gain access to an unassigned Application when they try to access it for the first time?! Is there a way to set this up through group assignment/rule?

Hello @uvjdq (uvjdq),
You can assign applications directly to security groups: https://help.okta.com/en/prod/Content/Topics/Apps/apps-assign-applications.htm
Another simple option would be to use group rules: https://help.okta.com/en/prod/Content/Topics/users-groups-profiles/usgp-about-group-rules.htm
You can create a rule that says if a user is a member of group "abc" then add them to group "xyz", this way you can give the same access to new users.

@User16254393570754125507 (Okta) Hi Natalie, thanks for the reply. The use case I'm referring to is slightly different from group rules. In this case, the User has been assigned separate applications but wants to access an unassigned application(salesforce), is there a way the user can get access just by trying to access the unassigned Application?
