This guide describes how to configure Single Sign-On (SSO) between Lative and Okta using the Lative application available in the Okta Integration Network (OIN).
Overview
The Lative Okta integration enables users to sign in to Lative using their Okta credentials through OpenID Connect (OIDC).
Because the integration is available directly through the Okta Integration Network, the application comes preconfigured with the required OpenID Connect settings and redirect URIs. This simplifies setup and helps reduce manual configuration errors compared to creating a custom Okta application.
Step 1 – Add the Lative Application
- Sign in to your Okta Admin Console.
- Navigate to Applications → Applications.
- Click Browse App Catalog.
- Search for Lative.
- Select the Lative application.
- Click Add Integration.
- Enter an application label if desired.
- Click Done.
Okta will automatically create a preconfigured OpenID Connect application for your organization.
At this stage, the application has been added to your Okta environment but users will not yet have access until assignments have been configured.
Step 2 – Configure Access
- Open the newly created Lative application.
- Navigate to the Assignments tab.
- Assign the users or groups that should have access to Lative.
Only users assigned to the application will be able to authenticate through Okta and access Lative.
Step 3 – Obtain the Required Configuration Values
Open the General tab of the Lative application and record the following configuration values:
Client ID
Located in:
General → Client Credentials
Client Secret
Located in:
General → Client Credentials → Client Secrets
Okta Domain
Your Okta domain is the base URL of your Okta organization.
Example:
If your browser displays:
https://your-company-admin.okta.com
remove the “-admin” portion when providing the domain to Lative
Once you have collected the required values, provide the Client ID, Client Secret, and Okta Domain to your Lative representative or support contact to complete the SSO configuration.
After the configuration has been completed, assigned users will be able to securely sign in to Lative using their Okta credentials through Single Sign-On (SSO).s and minimal manual configuration
