Okta Groups for Access Gateway

All Access Gateway apps require one or more groups. These groups are used to grant or deny access to the protected apps resources.

Define one or more groups that represent the sections of your app being protected in your Okta tenant. Complex policies may require you to create multiple groups.

Before you begin

You have administrator rights on your Okta tenant and can assign apps to users, and create groups.

Define Okta org groups

Define one or more groups representing the sections of your app being protected in your Okta org. See the Manage app policies for access controlguide for information on defining a fine-grained access policy. You can also define additional attribute field values required by your app. However, they must be outside the values provided by default.

To define groups within your Okta tenant:

  1. Sign in to your Okta tenant as an admin.
  2. In the Admin Console, go to DirectoryGroups.
  3. Click Add Group.
  4. Click the name of the newly added group and use the various menu items to add members and manage group membership.
