MatthewH.10249 (State of Iowa) asked a question.
I know this has been asked before and there are old posts in "Ideas" but does anyone know if there is any news about having a way to directly link from an calling app (SP) to the Okta hosted widget for self-service registration (SSR) & account recovery making sure that when the user has registered or recovered their account they will get redirected to the calling app rather than being sent to the Okta Dashboard.
I'm aware of using "https://youoktainstance/signin/register but that does not contain any SP details so redirection to calling app does not take place.
We are upgrading this weekend from Okta Classic to OIE and wonder if the switch offers any enhancements in this area. Perhaps profile enrollment policies would assist with this?

Thanks for responding! Are you trying to show me something specific with the screenshot in regards to how it allows for a user to directly navigate to self-service registration or account recovery pages (forgot pwd/unlock acct) in the Okta Hosted Widget and then redirect back to the calling app (SP)? I've seen this screen in our preview tenant and have read the documentation but I don't see how to do this so please provide some context in regards to my use case.

I don't know whehter I understand your use case. please reference this documents.

SSR is enabled. My use case is that I have SP/apps that use the org wide Okta Hosted Widget and wish to have a link on their app that would take users to the create account screen, forgot password screen or the unlock account screed directly rather than sending them to the sign on screen and then having the user have to click a subsequent link. If there is such a way to go to these screen directly in the Okta Hosted Widget it needs redirect users back to the SP/app for which they originally came from rather than the Okta Dashboard.
This may not be possible at this time but I wonder if there was any progress in this direction as this has been something people have asked for a long time.
