# OKTA SSO Configuration Guide (OIDC)

Connect your existing OKTA account

## Prerequisites 

* You must have admin access to your Okta organisation. 
* You need a gospace account with admin privileges, to have verified the Okta domain in admin settings.

## Configuration steps

1. Sign in to your Okta Admin Console.
2. Navigate to "Applications" > "Applications".
3. Click "Create App Integration".
4. Select "OIDC - OpenID Connect" as the Sign-in method, and "Web Application" as the Application type.
5. Click "Next".
6. Fill in the following details: 
   1. App integration name: "gospace" 
   2. Sign-in redirect URIs: <https://app.gospace.app/auth/login&#x20>;
   3. Sign-out redirect URIs: <https://app.gospace.app/&#x20>;
   4. Controlled access: Select "Allow everyone in your organisation to access"
7. Click "Save".
8. Navigate to the "Sign On" tab and scroll down to the "OpenID Connect ID Token" section.
9. Ensure that "Include in ID Token" is selected for both "Groups claim type" and "Group claims filter".
10. Set "Groups claim type" to "Filter".
11. In "Group claims filter", enter the Okta group that contains your gospace users.
12. Click "Save".
13. Return to your Okta Admin Console and assign the gospace application to the appropriate users or groups.

## SP-initiated SSO

To initiate SSO from gospace:

1. Navigate to <https://app.gospace.app/auth/login/>.
2. Click "Continue with Okta".
3. You will be redirected to the Okta sign-in page.
4. Enter your Okta credentials.
5. After successful authentication, you will be redirected back to gospace.

Troubleshooting&#x20;

* Ensure that the Redirect URI in both Okta and gospace configurations match exactly.&#x20;
* Check that users are correctly assigned to the gospace application in Okta.&#x20;
* If you encounter any issues, please contact **gospace support**&#x20;

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.gospace.com/integrations/sso/okta-sso-configuration-guide-oidc.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
