    Hi All,
    We have a requirement to leverage OKTA for B2Bi user authentication. Could you please let me know if any of you tried this? If so, please share some insights.

    Thanks for your support.

    Hi Rags,

    I believe OKTA uses Oauth2 protocol. SI does not support Oauth2 authentication at this time, you would need to developed a custom service for this.

    Thanks

    ​We are looking to integrate OKTA with B2B as well. However we use SSP and OpenLDAP for authentication into B2B/SFG. We heard from our vendor (an IBM partner) that it is possible to integrate OKTA. Our vendor stated they have worked with IBM on how to set it up. We haven't had a chance to implement but plan on doing some test configurations this year.

    SAML 2.0 is supported on SSP 6.x. So, I believe OKTA can be implemented.

    Per OKTA catalog IBM SFG is verified application- https://www.okta.com/integrations/ibm-sterling-file-gateway/.

    Thanks @Kharlon Galbreath and @Rajasekhar Muthamsetty.

    @Rajasekhar Muthamsetty: OKTA catalog says it can only SWA with SFG, SWA only enables a chicklet of SFG on OKTA pa​ge (more like bookmark) and SSO needs to be achieved by LDAP to AD. Yes, SAML option to be explored.​​

    Since this thread was last responded to; has anyone been able to get OKTA with SAML working with SSP to provide SSO for B2Bi Dashboard users?

    We have OKTA working for external multi factor authentication, but are now looking to do it for all the internal admin web pages.  Would be interested if someone has done this?  Our understanding from IBM contacts is that it has to be done through the SSP for all the admin/dashboard URL's.
