Integrating the Segura® platform and Okta happens through a manually generated token. In this article, you can find a step-by-step guide to generating this token in the Postman tool.

Info

Segura® carried out this documentation utilizing the Postman platform. The steps described are specific and may require adaptations for other apps.

Requirements

Step 1: Collect information

  1. On Segura®, in the navigation bar, hover over the Products menu and select Settings.
  2. In the side menu, select Provisioning > Identify Management (IGA) > Providers.
  3. Locate the desired third-party provider from the reports list.
    5.Click the Actions button and select Provider details.
  4. The Register Identity Manager Provider window will provide some of the information required to generate the integration token.
    5.1. Base URL: copy the URL to use in the next step.
    5.2. Token URL: copy the URL to use in the next step
    5.3. Customer ID: click the eye icon to access and copy the information.
