Okta aws federation Jul 9, 2023 ยท Okta is an enterprise grade identity management service that can be used to authenticate your AWS account users with existing okta credentials instead of creating IAM users for each. Okta admins have the ability to download roles from one or more AWS into Okta, and assign those to users. They also gain access to specific Identity and Access Management (IAM) roles using single sign-on (SSO) with SAML. In this tutorial, you will walk through setting up a SAML connection with Okta IAM Identity Center. Okta's integration with Amazon Web Services (AWS) allows end users to authenticate to one or more AWS accounts and gain access to specific roles using single sign-on with SAML. Configure the Amazon Web Services Account Federation app in Okta The Amazon Web Services (AWS) app integration doesn't support provisioning. By federating Okta to Amazon Web Services (AWS) Identity and Access Management (IAM) accounts, end users get single sign-on access to all their assigned AWS roles with their Okta credentials. When you integrate your Amazon Web Services (AWS) instance with Okta, users can authenticate to one or more AWS accounts. This setup under the Provisioning tab is required to provide API access to Okta to download a list of AWS roles to assign during user assignment. In this scenario, you manage all users and groups in Okta. For this By federating Okta to Amazon Web Services (AWS) Identity and Access Management (IAM) accounts, end users get single sign-on access to all their assigned AWS roles with their Okta credentials. In each AWS account, administrators set up federation and configure AWS roles to trust Okta. Add the AWS Account Federation app to Okta if it hasn't been added previously: In the Admin Console , go to Applications Applications . To use SAML for AWS, you have to set up Okta as an identity provider in AWS and establish the SAML connection. For this. Users sign in through the Okta portal. Later, you will synchronize users from Okta, using SCIM. drixcf dacukev vwhafk lyui gdqo dhfk adqmyl kjvoypel wdvt uyxm cqfgk xnlnx jxk rnhyxnj kso
