Okta permissions for terraform

Hi,

 

I'm encountering the issue mentioned in this doc: https://support.okta.com/help/s/article/terraform-plan-throwing-failed-to-set-authentication-policy-error-when-creating-application?language=en_US

 

The setup uses OAuth with a custom role with permissions to manage app and auth servers. okta.policies.read scope is already granted to the application and configured in terraform provider

 

The problem is I'm not sure what permissions to give to the custom role to read policies. The closest that I can see is Identity and Access Management but that doesn't help either. I don't want to use the standard roles provided by Okta because they contains more permissions than I need. Could you advise what permissions should I use?

 

Thanks

    Hi @DavidN.87485 (Customer)​ , Thank you for reaching out to the Okta Community! 

     

    This question is more appropriate for our dedicated Okta Developer Forum.

    My advice would be to reach out via devforum.okta.com to take advantage of their expertise.

    While we'll do our best to answer all of your questions here, this medium is more inclined towards Okta core products and features (non-custom/developer work). 

    That being said, I was looking into this and as far as I can see in this article okta.policies.manage might also be required. I recommend confirming with the Dev team.  

     

    Regards.
