Setting up SCIM with Okta

Step 5. Provision Okta users in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services

Step 5. Provision Okta users in
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services

To provision Okta users in
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
, create users in Okta, assign the users to a group, and then assign the provisioning app to the group.
Before you provision users, ensure that SCIM is enabled in both
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
and the provisioning app and that the test connection from the app is successful.
Every user that you want to provision must be part of a group because
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
roles are mapped to Okta groups. If the user is not part of an Okta group, the user will have no
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
role and cannot sign on to
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
.
  1. Create users in Okta:
    1. In Okta, on the left panel, select
      Directory
      People
      , and click
      Add person
      .
    2. In the
      Add Person
      dialog box, enter the user details.
    3. Click
      Save
      or click
      Save and Add Another
      to add another user.
  2. Assign the users to groups:
    1. Select
      Directory
      Groups
      , select a group, and click
      Manage people
      .
    2. Assign people to the group and click
      Done
      when finished.
    3. Repeat steps a and b for all groups that you need to provision users for.
  3. When the users are created and are part of a group, assign the app to the groups:
    1. Open the provisioning app that you created.
    2. On the
      Assignments
      tab, select
      Assign
      Assign to Groups
      .
    3. Select the group you want to assign, click
      Assign
      , and then click
      Done
      .
    4. Optionally, enter group attributes such as
      Preferred language
      ,
      Locale
      , and
      Time zone
      .
      These attributes will be assigned to all users in the group.
      The attributes that appear on this page vary based on the attribute mappings configured in the profile editor.
    5. Click
      Save and Go Back
      .
    6. Repeat steps c through e for all groups that you want to provision users for.
    7. Click
      Done
      .
After a group is assigned to the provisioning app, all users in the group are immediately provisioned in
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
. You can view users on the
Users
page in
Administrator
.
Users will be in the Pending Activation state until they first sign on to
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
. Users are editable while in the Pending Activation state, but once they sign on and the status changes to Enabled, the user details become read-only. Any changes you make to the user details will be overwritten the first time the user signs on to
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
.
At this point, the users have no groups assigned. If a user has no groups or roles assigned in
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
, the user cannot sign on. You must map the Okta groups to
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
roles and push the Okta groups to
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
so that the users get their group and role assignments.
