SSO IDP - Okta
Allow Okta to be an Identity Provider and log in to Foxpass using your Okta credentials
SSO IDP Configuration
To configure Okta as an Identity Provider for Foxpass, follow the steps below:
⚠️ Important: The official Foxpass application listed in the Okta Integration Network is currently configured only for the Global stack (https://console.foxpass.com). If your organization is using a non-Global stack (such as the EU stack at https://console.foxpass.eu), you will need to configure SSO using a custom SAML app in Okta instead of the default Foxpass app. When creating a Custom SAML App, make sure to use the appropriate stack-specific URLs for both: Single sign-on URL and Audience URI (SP Entity ID)
Format:
https://<your-stack-domain>/login_idp/<your-foxpass-domain>/
(e.g. https://console.foxpass.edu/login_idp/example.com/)
