The OpenID Connect Provider (OIDC) can also be used to connect to other Identity Providers such as Okta. To configure the OIDC provider for Okta, perform
the following steps:
#### Configuring the OIDC Provider with Okta
1. Log in to Okta using an administrative account. It is suggested you try this in preview first, `example.oktapreview.com`
2. (OPTIONAL) If you want to configure authorization scopes and claims to be passed on to multiple applications,
you may wish to configure an authorization server for each application. Otherwise, the provided `default` will work.
* Navigate to **Security** then select **API**
* Click **Add Authorization Server**, if this option is not available you may require an additional license for a custom authorization server.
* Fill out the **Name** with something to describe the application you are protecting. e.g. 'Example App'.
* For **Audience**, pick the URL of the application you wish to protect: https://example.corp.com
* Fill out a **Description**
* Add any **Access Policies** you wish to configure to limit application access.
* The default settings will work for other options.
[See Okta documentation for more information on Authorization Servers](https://developer.okta.com/docs/guides/customize-authz-server/overview/)
3. Navigate to **Applications** then select **Add Application**.
* Select **Web** for the **Platform** setting.
* Select **OpenID Connect** and click **Create**
* Pick an **Application Name** such as `Example App`.
* Set the **Login redirect URI** to `https://example.corp.com`.
* Under **General** set the **Allowed grant types** to `Authorization Code` and `Refresh Token`.
* Leave the rest as default, taking note of the `Client ID` and `Client Secret`.
* Under **Assignments** select the users or groups you wish to access your application.
4. Create a configuration file like the following:
```
provider = "oidc"
redirect_url = "https://example.corp.com"
oidc_issuer_url = "https://corp.okta.com/oauth2/abCd1234"
upstreams = [
"https://example.corp.com"
]
email_domains = [
"corp.com"
]
client_id = "XXXXX"
client_secret = "YYYYY"
pass_access_token = true
cookie_secret = "ZZZZZ"
skip_provider_button = true
```
The `oidc_issuer_url` is based on URL from your **Authorization Server**'s **Issuer** field in step 2, or simply https://corp.okta.com
The `client_id` and `client_secret` are configured in the application settings.
Generate a unique `client_secret` to encrypt the cookie.
Then you can start the oauth2_proxy with `./oauth2_proxy -config /etc/example.cfg`
