How to Set Up Okta SSO

This feature is part of the Premium and Enterprise plans. See  our plans and pricing .

Use OpenID Connect in Slite to allow users to securely sign in with Okta identities. It will also become the only way people can sign in to Slite.

How to set it up?

Step one: Create application in Okta:

    In your Okta workspace, select the Applications tab, then click create a new application.
    Choose the Web App type.
    In the login redirect URI input, add the following URL https://slite.com/api/auth/openid/callback
IMPORTANT - Make sure to tick the refresh token box in your settings.

Step two: In your Slite workspace:

    Click your team avatar in the left sidebar, and then select "Team settings". Next, click the Security tab.
    Click Expand next to SSO Authentication Enforcement, and click OpenID authentication.
    Enter the name of the authentication provider.
  • The provider URL is the url of your Okta workspace under the form
https://[YOUR_OKTA_WORKSPACE].okta.com/
    Enter your Client ID and your Client secret that you'll find in the Slite application you created in Okta.

Last steps

    Finally, head back to Okta and go to Applications created, then Settings.
    Under the General tab, copy and paste the Client Id & Client secret into Slite.
    Click "Validate" and save. Every member of your Slite team is now required to sign-in through Okta.
