Configure Office 365 GCC High Tenant

Early Access release. See Enable self-service features.

US government customers and their contractors can add their Microsoft Office 365 Government Community Cloud (GCC) High tenant in Okta. Okta securely connects the Office 365 tenant to appropriate Office 365 endpoints and takes care of the back-end workflow.

When integrating an Office 365 tenant in Okta, select the Microsoft Office 365 Government - GCC High app.

  • Okta doesn't validate the tenant type. Ensure you have selected the right tenant type for your tenant. If you are unsure of your tenant type, please select the default option.
  • Before installing any Office 365 tenant in Okta, refer to the Microsoft Office 365 Deployment Guide for prerequisites.
