Ensure that your Okta account has API Access Administrator, Organization Administrator, or Super Administrator privileges.

​
Getting Your Okta Credentials

To configure the Okta connector profile, you’ll need your Okta domain and OAuth application credentials. These are set once at the profile level — end users will not be asked for them.

1

Log in to Okta

Log in to your Okta account at https://login.okta.com/

2

Find Your Okta Domain

Your Okta domain can be found in the URL when logged in to Okta.

  • Given the URL https://your-org.okta.com/app/UserHome, your domain is your-org.okta.com
  • For preview environments, the domain may be your-org.oktapreview.com
3

Navigate to Okta Admin Console

From your Okta homepage, click the Admin button in the top right corner.

4

Create an OAuth Application

Create an OAuth application to obtain your Client ID and Client Secret.

  • In the Admin Console, navigate to Applications > Applications
  • Click Create App Integration
  • Select OIDC - OpenID Connect as the Sign-in method
  • Select Web Application as the Application type
  • Click Next
5

Configure Application Settings

Configure your OAuth application with the appropriate settings.

  • Enter an App integration name (e.g., StackOne Integration)
  • Check Authorization Code and Refresh Token both under the Grant type
  • Set the Sign-in redirect URI to the callback URL provided by StackOne: https://api.stackone.com/connect/oauth2/okta/callback
  • Under Assignments, assign every user who should be able to connect their account
  • Click Save
6

Copy Client Credentials

After saving, copy your OAuth credentials.

  • Client ID is displayed on the application’s General tab
  • Client Secret is also on the General tab (click the eye icon to reveal)
  • Store these credentials securely as you’ll need them for the connector profile
7

Configure API Scopes

Enables actions: Activate Device, Add User To Group, Create Group, Create Realm, Create User, Create User Type, Deactivate Device, Delete Device, Delete Group, Delete Realm, Delete User, Delete User Type, Get Device, Get Group, Get Realm, Get User, Get User Info, Get User Type, List Devices, List Group Members, List Groups, List Realms, List User Blocks, List User Types, List Users, Remove User From Group, Replace User, Replace User Type, Update Group, Update Realm, Update User, Update User Type

Navigate to the Okta API Scopes tab.
Grant the required OAuth scopes for this integration.
See Okta OAuth 2.0 Scopes for details.
Also include the offline_access and openid scopes in the list of scopes configured on the connector profile.

​
Realm Access Configuration

Required for: Create Realm, Delete Realm, Get Realm, List Realms, Update Realm

Realm scopes require an Okta Identity Governance, Secure Partner Access, or Advanced Directory Management subscription.

1

Verify subscription eligibility

If your subscription does not include realm management, the API will return authorization errors.

  • Navigate to Settings > Account in the Admin Console to verify your subscription tier
