An API token is required for onboarding an Okta application with Britive. Follow these steps to create an API Token in Okta:
Notes:
- API tokens inherit the status of the account that is used to create them. If the account is deactivated/deleted then the token associated with it will also be deactivated/deleted. It is therefore good practice to use a service account when you create API tokens.
- Grant Super Administrator role to the service account so that the API token also inherits the Super Administrator privileges. The token requires super administrator permission to update assignments for the Admin Roles.
- Log in to Okta Console with super administrator privileges.
- From the Navigation menu, click on Security->API.
- Click on the Tokens tab and click Create Token.
- Enter a name for the Token and click Create Token.
- Copy the Token Value and click OK.
