Configuring Okta single sign-on

This guide walks you through setting up SAML-based Single Sign-On (SSO) with Okta for DX. By integrating DX with Okta, your users can log in using their existing Okta credentials.

Setup instructions

Follow the instructions below to set up Okta single sign-on using the official DX Okta application.

Step 1 - Get SAML info

In DX, navigate to the SAML SSO admin page to obtain:

  • Single Sign-On URL (ACS URL)
  • Audience URI (SP Entity ID)

Only copy the final portion of the ACS URL and Entity ID to use in the next step.

Step 2 - Add DX Okta app

Log in to your Okta Identity provider account then:

  1. Navigate to Applications.
  2. Search for the application named “DX”.
  3. Assign the users or groups that should be able to log in.
  4. Click Add Integration.

Step 3 - Configure Okta settings

In Okta, go to the DX application’s General tab:

  1. Paste the ACS ID and Entity ID obtained in Step 1 (only the last portions, as noted earlier).
  2. Save or continue to the next step.

Step 4 - Configure DX settings

In Okta, go to the Sign On tab of the DX application.

  1. Copy the Metadata URL.
  2. In DX, navigate to the SAML SSO admin page and enter the metadata URL.
  3. Click Update to apply the changes.
