lqcv7 (lqcv7) asked a question.
Hello All,
When viewing the user logs for a specific user, you are able to expand the log to view more details. Once the UserAgent tab is expanded in the log you are able to view the associated OS. This information is great, however does not appear to be easily reportable for the entire Okta tenant. Is there a way through Okta that you can pull the OS each user is using to log into Okta?
Hi! Quick question, I am assuming you are referring user agent OS, correct?
You can search the following "client.userAgent.os eq "Windows 10"" (replacing Windows 10 with OS of your choice) and you can get a list of users using the specified OS during the time span you configure. You can always download the report as a csv for further monitoring, so for instance, if you want to view all the User Agent OS(s) then you should be able to search say for.. "eventType eq "user.session.start"" and then download the CSV.
from there, you can look into the CSV and filter down on the User Agent OS(s) values that you are looking for. Not perfect, but an adequate solution I am assuming.
Couple thoughts on this, it would be great to have either a report that does this automatically or the ability to search with a wildcard so that you can just search and get this information directly, but neither are available to the best of my knowledge. May be worth submitting on Okta Ideas if you would like.
I do hope that helps! Please feel free to ask any questions or advice. Thanks!
