Automate a newly imported group into a pushgroup based on a specific naming structure

Hello, I am trying to create an automation where any newly ingested/imported group is automaticly turned into a push group for a specific application based on the group title following a specific naming convention

 

Example Usecase: 3 Google groups are created "Finance_User", "Finance_Mgr", and "Finance_Auditor". I want those groups turned into pushgroups and have them pushed to our Salesforce platform. Okta sees 3 newly imported groups that begin with the naming convention "Finance_" and turns them into pushgroups, and now Salesforce has all 3 groups in the Salesforce directory and its' members.

 

I've got the event card setup "Import Group Created". What vexes me is the naming convention part. I've read that Im supposed to use a function "If/Else", with value a = Group.Name and the comparison (where I get stuck) should be "Contains" or "Starts with".....neither are an option. So I'm a little unsure how to make it work because none of the options dont really work with what Im trying to do

    To the best of my knowledge there are no API endpoints available to manipulate Pushgroups. This is relevant as Okta Workflows much like other API client tools can only leverage the publicly available endpoints for services (This includes Okta services).

     

    Okta's API's can be found here:

    https://developer.okta.com/docs/api/openapi/okta-management/guides/overview/

     

    Th rest of your evaluation is definitely possible but not the core component of your use case.

    Is there a group push API endpoint on the Workflows roadmap? I cant be the only organization that is trying to automate group push for a large number of groups and this is one of Okta's best features.
