Enable users on Splunk intelligence Management using Okta

install and configure the Okta app to provide secure and reliable single sign-on (SSO) access to the Splunk Intelligence Management web app. The Okta app uses the SAML 2.0 standard to enable single sign-on (SSO). For more information on SAML, see Okta's SAML documentation.

Okta SSO does not impact or change API credentials. Usage of Python SDK or any other vendor integrations remain unimpacted when you switch a user from non SSO to SSO-enabled login credentials.

When using the Okta app for SSO, the Okta app is the identity provider (IDP) and the Splunk Intelligence Management app is the service provider (SP).
