Enable AI agent imports for an app

Enable imports for an AI agent provider app so you can import AI agents into Okta. If you delete an app that's configured for AI agent imports from your org, any AI agents that you've imported from the app are also deleted. If you deactivate the app instance or disable its import functionality, the imported AI agents aren't impacted, but you can't run more imports.

You can assign individual users or groups as the default owners. The owners are responsible for the governance and lifecycle management of the app's imported AI agents. After you've imported an AI agent, you can manually update its ownership.

See Apps that support AI agent imports for a list of provider apps that you can configure for AI agent imports. You can also view this list by selecting the AI Agent Imports filter in the App Integration Catalog.

Before you begin

Start this task

  1. In the Admin Console, go to ApplicationsApplications.

    You can also click the Add AI agent provider button on the AI agent providers page to go to the Applications page.

  2. Search for and select an app that's configured for AI agent imports. If your org has multiple instances of an AI agent provider app, Okta recommends that you only configure AI agent imports for one of them.
  3. Go to the AI Agent Import tab.
  4. Select the Enable AI agent imports checkbox.
  5. Enter your authentication credentials and other required information for the provider app.

    Okta only imports AI agents that the admin account that's associated with the authentication credentials has permission to manage in the provider app. To ensure a complete import, use an admin account that has a global view of all AI agents.

  6. Click Test API Credentials. A message appears indicating that your credentials are confirmed.
  7. Click Save configuration.
  8. In the Assign AI agent owners section, select an option:
    • Assign individual owners: Add between two and five owners to the Individual owners field.
    • Assign a group owner: Select a group from the Select group owner menu. Ensure that there are at least two users in the group.
    • Do not pre-assign an owner: No default owner is assigned to the imported AI agents.

    Owners are responsible for the governance and lifecycle management of the app's imported AI agents. After you've imported an AI agent, you can manually update its ownership.

  9. Optional. Select a Full import schedule option:
    • Do not schedule imports (not recommended): AI agents are only added when an admin runs an import.
    • Weekly: Select the days and time when imports should run.
    • Hourly: Enter the import interval in hours.

    Scheduled imports only start if the previous import is complete.

  10. Click Save configuration.

Third-party integrations are subject to external updates. Make sure you periodically review your configurations to ensure that they remain compatible with any changes made by the provider.
