yc954 (yc954) asked a question.

Import users from a CSV file to a specific group in okta.

We are currently planning to migrate users from the existing system to OKTA using a CSV file. Could you please confirm whether it is possible to assign users to a specific OKTA group during the CSV import process?


  • In short, yes, it is possible.

    Steps:

    Create an Okta Workflow that listens for the event of a user being assigned to the application ( i.e., CSV application). This workflow will trigger once the user is imported via a CSV file. Inside this workflow, invoke the Okta Card to assign the user to the specified group.

  • Alternate Solution:

    When CSV user data contains a marker attribute (e.g., User Originating source) indicating the user is imported from a CSV, create a group rule to verify this attribute. If true, automatically add the user to the designated group.

    You can create the group in Okta, after created go to the group, Assign People --> More Actions -->Assign people from CSV.
