Integrate Prisma Cloud with Okta
Prisma Cloud integrates with the identity provider (IdP) service known as Okta to ingest single sign-on (SSO) data for the effective permissions calculation in the IAM Security module. After the integration, you will be able to list the effective permissions of your Okta users across your cloud accounts by using the IAM query and gain better visibility and governance into the entities accessing your cloud resources.
Okta integration is only available with a subscription of the IAM Security module. Learn how to get a 30-day free trial.
For AWS, Prisma Cloud supports a 1:1 mapping between the Okta app and your AWS account. If you have onboarded more than one AWS account on Prisma Cloud, you must create additional instances of the Okta app and generate API keys for each AWS account for which you want to ingest single sign-on (SSO) data.
Log in to your Okta administrator panel.
Access your Okta tenant.
The typical URL is the tenant name as a sub domain followed by userinput:[okta.com] . For example: userinput:[companyname.okta.com] .
Enter your username and password and Sign In.
Check that you are on the Classic UI view.

Add an administrator role.
From the top menu navigate to Security > Administrators.
Click Add Administrator.

Select your user under the Grant administrator role to field.

Select Read Only Administrator under the Administrator roles section.
Click Add Administrator.
Generate an API token.
API tokens are unique identifiers that are used to authenticate requests to the Okta API—they’re needed to connect your Prisma Cloud account to Okta so that Prisma Cloud can ingest the SSO data.
From the top menu navigate to Security > API.
Select Tokens.
Click Create Token and under Grant administrator role select your user.
Enter a name for your token and click Create Token.
Upon successful completion the message Token created successfully will display, along with a generated token that is associated with the current user.

Configure Okta with Prisma Cloud.
After you generate the API token, you can use it to connect your Prisma Cloud account to Okta.
In Prisma Cloud navigate to Settings > Integrations.
Click +Add New.
Click Integration Type and select Okta.

Enter your Description.
Enter your Domain.
Enter your API Token.
Click Test to verify that the integration was successful.
Click Save.

Run the IAM queries for Okta.
After Okta is integrated with Prisma Cloud, you will now be able to see the results of the IAM queries for Okta and gain visibility and governance into your cloud environment.
View all the RQL attributes for Okta.
Enter the following RQL query on the Investigate tab.
config from iam where source.idp
Use auto complete to build your idp RQL query.
Select the attribute that you want to add to your RQL query. For example, if you select userinput:[source.idp.username], then the results will return all the Okta users in your cloud environment.
View the results.
Click the magnifying glass icon to render the results.
