Okta Classic Engine Production release notes

Version 2026.09.1. Released on September 28, 2026.

Generally Available

Automatic tasks and questions reassignment after a manager change

To prevent access requests from being blocked during organizational changes, Okta Access Requests now automatically reassigns pending manager tasks and manager questions to an employee's new manager whenever a manager change occurs. This automated reassignment ensures that approvals proceed without manual IT intervention or delays, even if the previous manager's account has already been deactivated. This is available for requests built with both request conditions and request types.

Requester timeline view

Requesters can now view a detailed status timeline of their request's tasks directly from the Okta Access Request app. This enhanced visibility allows requesters to easily track the progress of their requests, see who has approved individual tasks, and identify remaining tasks, helping users stay informed throughout the approval process and reducing unnecessary status inquiries. The timeline is available for requests built with access request conditions.
