Hello Thomas Barnes,
Thanks for posting.
Make sure you follow the steps found here: https://saml-doc.okta.com/Provisioning_Docs/Salesforce_Provisioning and to append the token Salesforce provided to you to your password, no spaces or other characters as in : passwordXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX,
where XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX is the API Token.
Once you create the token, you can begin using it, supplying it in the Authorization header of calls to Okta API endpoints. See Create a user by API for an easy way to explore making calls to Okta using the Okta APIs.
If you have any more questions or need any assistance feel free to open a support case.
Let us know if this helps you.
