Why integrate with Okta
Integrating Shapes with Okta allows you to automatically provision and deprovision Okta accounts.
Whenever an employee is added to Shapes, they will automatically be created in your Okta account
Whenever an employee’s data is updated in Shapes, the data will automatically be updated in your Okta account
Whenever an employee is terminated in Shapes, they will be automatically deactivated in your Okta account
How to set up the integration
All Super Admins can integrate in 3 simple steps.
Step 1: Enter Shapes' Account Settings -> Okta
Step 2: Click connect and open the fields for the Okta domain and Secret Key
Step 3. Connecting to Okta
Simply log in to your Okta account and on the top right, click your user name. You will see your Okta domain underneath your email address. Simply copy and paste the browser address.
You'll also be asked for an API token. To create this, in your Okta account visit Security > API > Tokens and hit Create Token.
Paste the created token into Shapes.
Hit save in Shapes, and we'll connect to Okta.
