Manage Active Directory accounts in Okta Privileged Access

This feature allows management of Active Directory (AD) account passwords through Okta Privileged Access using the Okta AD agent. Okta Privileged Access admins can set discovery rules for accounts in specific organizational units (OUs) and create policies for user access, ensuring passwords are rotated upon check-in or on a schedule. Users with access can view their assigned accounts and retrieve passwords. To enable this feature, contact Okta Support. See Manage Active Directory accounts.
