Okta Identity Engine release notes (2024)
Version: 2024.01.0
January 2024
Generally Available
Sign-In Widget, version 7.14.0
For details about this release, see the Sign-In Widget Release Notes.
For more information about the Widget, see the Okta Sign-In Widget Guide.
Okta On-Prem MFA Agent, version 1.7.4
This version includes security enhancements. See Okta On-Prem MFA agent version history.
Configure multiple IdP authenticators
You can now configure multiple SAML 2.0 or OIDC Identity Providers as authenticators. See Configure the IdP authenticator.
Read-only permission for admin role assignments
Super admins can now assign the View roles, resources, and admin assignments permission to their delegated admins. This permission gives admins a read-only view of the admin roles, resource sets, and admin assignments in the org. See Role permissions.
New possession constraint available in authentication policies
Admins may now require users to enter a PIN or do biometric verification when they authenticate. This enhancement enables admins to increase the security of their orgs and their authentications.
Use your own email provider
You can now use an external email provider to send email notifications in Okta. By default, email notifications such as the welcome email or an account recovery email are sent through an Okta-managed SMTP server. However, you can configure a third-party email provider in Okta and send these emails through it. Adding a custom email provider gives you more control over your email delivery. See Use your own email provider.
Operating system in the Okta Verify push challenge
The Okta Verify app now displays the correct operating system when the push challenge is initiated.

- system.idp.key.delete
System Log event for GET an IdP
A new System Log event is generated for GET /api/v1/idps[/{idpId}.
Application Entitlement Policy
Admins can now override attribute mapping when assigning apps to individuals or groups. Attributes can also be reverted to their default mappings. See Override application attribute mapping. This feature will be gradually made available to all orgs.
New Smart Card attribute for user matching
A new issuerSnReverseByteOrder attribute has been added to the Smart Card IdP user match.
Google Workspace system roles
Okta now supports Google Workspace system roles.

IP restrictions on tokens
Admins can specify allowlisted and blocklisted network zones for static, Single Sign-On Web System (SSWS) API tokens. This strengthens org security by letting them control where calls to Okta APIs can originate from. It also restricts attackers and malware from stealing SSWS tokens or replaying them outside of their IP range to gain unauthorized access.

Version: 2024.02.0
February 2024
Generally Available
Sign-In Widget, version 7.15.1
For details about this release, see the Sign-In Widget Release Notes.
For more information about the Widget, see the Okta Sign-In Widget Guide.
Okta LDAP agent, version 5.19.1
This version of the agent fixes the expiring signature error that prevented agents from auto-updating to the newest LDAP agent version. See Okta LDAP Agent version history.
Okta Active Directory agent, version 3.16.1
This version of the agent fixes an expiring signature error that prevented agents from auto-updating to the newest Active Directory agent version. See Okta Active Directory agent version history.
Okta MFA Credential Provider for Windows, version 1.4.2
This version includes bug fixes and security enhancements. See Okta MFA Credential Provider for Windows Version History.
Assign admin roles to an app
Orgs can now assign admin roles to their custom API Service Integrations. Apps with assigned admin roles are constrained to the permissions and resources that are included in the role assignment. This helps ensure that apps only have access to the resources that are needed to perform their tasks, and improves orgs' overall security. See Work with the admin component.
Seamless ISV experience
Okta now provides a seamless ISV experience to optimize the Okta Integration Network (OIN) submission experience for SAML and OIDC integrations. This new experience enables independent software vendors (ISVs) to build and manually test their integration metadata before submission. This reduces the time needed for the OIN team to review and validate that the integration functions as intended, which shortens the time to publish in the OIN.
This experience also incorporates communication processes in Salesforce, enabling improved collaboration internally within Okta teams and externally with ISVs. See Publish an OIN integration overview and Submit an SSO integration with the OIN Wizard guide.
Email or password no longer required in authenticator enrollment policy
Currently, the authenticator enrollment policy requires either email or password, even when you’ve enabled another authenticator for authentication. Now you can set email or password as optional or disabled in the policy, and instead require stronger authenticators like Okta Verify, Okta FastPass, and FIDO2 (WebAuthn) for authentication. With this change, passwordless users who initially signed in with an email now receive the activation email. See Create an authenticator enrollment policy.
Force authentication
Orgs now support force authentication for WS-Fed SSO requests. Users must re-authenticate WS-Fed authentication requests that include Wfresh=0.
DPoP support for Okta management API
You can now use OAuth 2.0 Demonstrating Proof-of-Possession (DPoP) access tokens to access Okta management APIs. See Configure OAuth 2.0 Demonstrating Proof-of-Possession.
MFA Activity report
The new MFA Activity report provides insight into the MFA trends in your org. It helps you understand which authentication methods were used to access Okta and Okta-protected apps. The report also provides information about the characteristics of authenticators, helping you measure how phishing resistant your org is. See MFA Activity report.
LDAP real-time synchronization
With real-time synchronization, user profiles, groups, and group memberships can now be updated when LDAP-sourced users sign in to Okta, or when they refresh their People page. Admins no longer need to perform full or incremental imports of user attributes, and user profiles, groups, and group memberships are always up to date. Real-time synchronization also reduces the burden on system resources because user attributes are imported and updated individually and not in large groups. See Manage your LDAP integration. This feature is being re-released.
Reports field update
The operator field of the Reports Edit Filters dialog shows the selected item in the dropdown menu.
Dynamic user schema discovery now available
Dynamic user schema discovery is now available for SCIM app integrations that support user entitlements and Identity Governance.
OIN connector support for Entitlement Management
The PagerDuty and Zendesk connectors have been updated to support Entitlement Management. See Provisioning-enabled apps.
App integration tile now available for Okta Workflows
Users who are assigned to the Okta Workflows app integration now have a dedicated tile on their End-User Dashboard to launch the Okta Workflows Console. See Workflows Console.
API setting now an Admin Console option
The Use Persistent Name ID (Higher Security) checkbox allows more secure account linking. This setting allows Okta to determine the associated user account by matching the Name ID with the External ID. When no match is found, Okta uses the IdP username value for account matching.
New action items for self-service upgrades
The OIE Upgrade Hub displays actions items if orgs have non-writable attributes in their self-service registration policy or a factor enrollment policy set to Do Not Enroll. See Self-service upgrade action items.
New System Log event
There's a new system.mfa.preregister.initiate System Log event. The event appears for event hooks and represents MFA preregistration flow initiation. Currently, it's only available for pre-registered YubiKey enrollments.
UI enhancements to Authenticator Enrollment tab
The Authenticator Enrollment tab has been updated to include information about how the enrollment works.
Super admin role now required to update direct authentication grants
Super admin permissions are now required to enable or change direct authentication grants for clients.
Early Access Features
Detect and block requests from anonymizing proxies
Orgs can now detect and block web requests that come from anonymizers. This helps improve the overall security of your org.
Custom languages for email templates
Admins can now customize Okta-generated emails in any BCP47-formatted language. Previously, customizations were limited to 27 Okta-supported languages. This feature allows admins to configure additional locales using Okta’s Brands API. When a new locale is configured, it's available as a new language selection within the Email Templates Editor. See Customized Email Notifications.
Dynamic OS version compliance for device assurance
You can configure OS version compliance by using device assurance. However, you have to manually update the policies every time a new OS version or patch is released. With Dynamic OS version compliance, Okta updates device assurance policies with the latest OS versions and patches, eliminating the need for manual updates. With this feature you can ensure OS version compliance in your org without tracking OS releases. See Add a device assurance policy.

This feature enables commercial customers in the North America region (excluding Compliance cells) to recover faster in the event of a disaster or regional outage. See Overview of enhanced disaster recovery.
Admin sessions bound to Autonomous System Number (ASN)
When an admin signs in to Okta, their session is now associated with the ASN they are logging in from. If the ASN changes during the session, the admin is signed out of Okta, and an event appears in the System Log.
Admin sessions bound to IP address
The General Security.
page has a new IP binding for admin console setting that's enabled by default. This setting associates all of the admin sessions in your org with the device IP address. If the IP address changes during the session, the admin is signed out of Okta, and an event appears in the System Log. This setting can be disabled, but Okta recommends keeping it enabled as a security best practice. SeeVerify Zoom users with Okta
Zoom users can now attest and verify a user’s identity between two independent parties using Okta-signed tokens.
Permission conditions for profile attributes
You can now apply conditions to the View users and their details and Edit users' profile attributes custom admin role permissions. Permission conditions help you limit the scope of a role by including or excluding admins' access to individual profile attributes. This gives you more granular control over your custom admin roles and helps meet your org’s unique security needs. See Permission conditions.
Enhanced security of Okta Verify enrollments
The Higher security methods option on the authenticator configuration page ensures that users enroll in Okta Verify in a phishing-resistant manner. With this option, users can't enroll with QR code, email, or SMS link. See Configure Okta Verify options.
Stay signed in
Today, Keep me signed in allows the user to select whether their multifactor authenticators from previous sessions should be remembered. However, the option to select Keep me signed in was only available on the sign-in screen.
To enable Stay signed in for integrated authentication flows, admins can now configure their sign-in experience such that the option to Stay signed in is provided either before the user signs in to Okta or before and after the user completes multifactor authentication. If a user selects Stay signed in, they won't be challenged for MFA the next time they sign in. In addition, users will now be able to sign out of all active Okta sessions from the Okta End-User Dashboard. See Stay signed in.
Granular permissions to manage directories
This feature enables you to assign permissions to view and manage directories as part of a customized admin role. Admins without universal application administrator permissions can handle directory-specific tasks.
Improved password reset process for Active Directory-sourced users
The password reset process sends password update and verification requests to the same Active Directory agent to avoid replication delay.
Device Context using Limited Access in Okta Identity Engine
You can now pass device context using Limited Access in Okta Identity Engine. See Pass Device Context using Limited Access in Okta Identity Engine
Unknown devices detection using fingerprint
Admins can now configure how unknown devices are treated based on the presence of a device fingerprint.
See Block suspicious password attempts from unknown devices.
New requirement for email customizations
To prevent phishing attacks, Okta now requires orgs to have a custom domain to send customized emails. All customized emails currently sent from the Okta domain are disabled, and orgs that use the Okta domain can send default email templates only. This feature is currently enabled by default for new orgs only.
Enhanced System Log Event
The policy.evaluate_sign_on System Log event now shows the assurance policy factor requirement and a list of the available authentication factors for the sign-on event.
Cornerstone OnDemand now uses OAuth for authentication
Cornerstone OnDemand replaced the previous authentication method with OAuth authentication to improve security for provisioning. Create a new Cornerstone OnDemand app instance and configure it to use Oauth credentials. See Configure provisioning for Cornerstone OnDemand.
Styling change for Brands pages
The
section of the Admin Console now uses Odyssey UI components. There's no change to functionality, but some of the styling is different.AAL values for Login.gov IdP
The Login.gov IdP configuration has been updated to include all allowed AAL values. See Create an Identity Provider in Okta.
New System Log information for password policy changes
System Log entries for password policy changes now display the policy settings before and after the update was made.
Improved System Log map view
The System Log map view now includes a reset button and left and right bounds on the zoom function.
New System Log information for MFA enrollment policy changes
System Log entries for MFA enrollment policy changes now display the policy settings before and after the update was made.
IP binding for Admin Console setting
The General Security.
page has a new IP binding for Admin Console setting. When you enable this setting, all of the admin sessions in your org are associated with the system IP address that they signed-in from. If the IP address changes during the session, the admin is signed out of Okta, and an event appears in the System Log. SeeAdditional operator for date filter
The date filter is now standardized across all reports and includes the in range operator.
Early Access
Direct End-User Settings access

Version: 2024.04.0
April 2024
Generally Available
Sign-in Widget, version 7.17.0
For details about this release, see the Sign-In Widget Release Notes.
For more information about the Widget, see the Okta Sign-In Widget Guide.
Okta MFA Provider for ADFS, version 1.8.0
This release includes vulnerability fixes and a .NET Framework version upgrade.
Content Security Policy for custom domains
The Content Security Policy (CSP) feature lets admins control which URLs may be linked to from customized sign-in and error pages in orgs that use custom domains. Admins add trusted URLs to Okta that link to items such as images and add these links to the code in their sign-in and error pages. This feature enhances security by enabling admins to allow only approved content to appear and prevent the introduction of potentially malicious code to these pages. See Customize the Content Security Policy (CSP) for a custom domain.
SAML Certificate expiration notification feature
This feature notifies admins through task entries in the Admin Console about expired or soon-to-expire certificates for SAML apps. This enhances security and minimizes app downtime caused by expired certificates.
Support case management for admins
Super admins can now assign the View, create, and manage Okta support cases permission and Support Cases resource to a custom admin role. This allows delegated admins to manage the support cases that they’ve opened. See Role permissions.
Okta Usage report enhancements
The Okta Usage report now attempts to download the generated CSV file immediately upon loading, and updates the email template when the report is generated. The CSV file can now contain up to five million rows. These enhancements automate the tasks of downloading and emailing the report, and provide more data to admins.
Direct Authentication
Direct Authentication offers a new set of OAuth 2.0 grants that give app developers greater control over the authentication process. When redirect authentication isn't an option, you can use direct authentication to allow client apps to authenticate users directly, without relying on HTTP redirection through a web browser. This is beneficial when there's a high degree of trust between the user and the app and when browser-based flows aren't feasible, like with mobile apps. See Configure Direct Auth grant types.
Okta Verify user verification with PIN or passcode
The Okta Verify enrollment relies on biometric verification, which presents challenges for users whose devices don’t support biometrics. To address this limitation, Okta Verify now supports user verification with PIN or password in addition to biometrics. This enhancement broadens accessibility, enabling all users to authenticate with Okta Verify and Okta FastPass, regardless of their device capabilities or personal constraints. See Configure Okta Verify options.
Granular API policy authenticator controls
The Authentication Policy API now includes three new constraints object parameters that provide precise control over what specific authenticators and methods are displayed to end users. Previously, some authenticators were mapped to the same authenticator types and methods. The parameters authenticationMethods and excludeAuthenticationMethods now identify (or exclude) the exact authenticator for both knowledge and possession constraints. The required parameter indicates whether the knowledge or possession constraints are required by the assurance. See the Policy API.
Granular controls for authentication policies
You can now disallow or allow individual authentication methods for an authentication policy. This gives admins more granular control over access to apps.
Require possession factor before password during MFA
You can now require users to verify their identity with a possession factor before a password or other knowledge factor during MFA. This helps protect your org against password guessing or spray attacks. See General Security.
New maximum number of connected AWS accounts
Admins can now connect a maximum of 1000 Amazon Web Services accounts to the AWS Account Federation app in Okta. This change helps avoid timeouts when testing API credentials on AWS.
Improved date filter display in reports
The date filter is now standardized and appears inline for the following reports: Telephony usage, Continuous access violation, Entity risk, At-risk user, and MFA events.
Improved Admin Dashboard and Administrators page
The appearance of several UI components (like buttons and dropdown menus) have been improved across the Admin Dashboard and the Administrators page.
Updated documentation links
Documentation links under the Security, Applications, and Customizations menus now redirect to the correct documentation.
End-User Dashboard and unsupported browsers
The End-User Dashboard no longer loads in unsupported browsers, including Internet Explorer 11 or Edge in Internet Explorer mode. This change enhances security by preventing access from browsers that no longer receive updates.
End-User Dashboard branding and accessibility enhancements
The End-User Dashboard now features design changes that provide a consistent brand experience across Okta's app and enhance accessibility for users.
New target added to a System Log event
A new target was added to the user.authentication.auth_via_mfa System Log event. The target shows the type of MFA app that was used to authenticate.
Authentication context System Log event
The new AuthenticationContext System Log event shows who accessed the configuration secrets for ADFS, Windows Credential Provider (RDP), Epic Hyperspace, and Epic Hyperdrive apps.
New DSSO user impersonation System Log event
A System Log event is now logged when a user attempts Desktop Single Sign-On (DSSO) authentication using a profile source that wasn't the highest priority.
Additional CrowdStrike signals
Okta Verify collects additional trust signals from CrowdStrike. You can view these signals in the System Log. When you configure authentication policy rules, you can use the CrowdStrike signals in Expression Language conditions. See EDR signals for custom expressions.

2024.04.2: Update 2 started deployment on April 22
Generally Available
Referrer-Policy HTTP header sends default value
The Referrer-Policy HTTP response header controls how much referrer header information should be included with requests. Okta currently doesn't send the Referrer-Policy response header. The default value for the header is strict-origin-when-cross-origin when it's not sent by Okta. Browsers use the current default value. With this change, Okta will send the Referrer-Policy response header with the default value of strict-origin-when-cross-origin. This feature will be gradually made available to all orgs.
