Get started

Early Access release. See Enable self-service features.

Follow this sequence of configuration tasks to start using Govern Okta admin roles.

Super admin task

Description

Configure policies for Govern Okta admin roles apps Learn about the apps that are available when you enable this feature and set up policies that govern their access.
Create an admin role bundle Pair an admin role with a resource set so you can automate the process of requesting access.
Create an access request condition Define which users can request access to which admin role bundles, how long should they have access for, and who should approve their access request.
Assign Okta Access Requests app to users Assign the Okta Access Requests app to approvers for them to approve or deny a request. See Assign a single app to groups or Assign applications to users.
Enable a condition Enable your new access request condition so that it's active.
Create a campaign Create resource campaigns to periodically review users’ admin role assignments.

If you previously changed or canceled your subscription while a campaign was active, that campaign is considered unsuccessful. However, successful review and revoke decisions in the campaign are still honored. If you re-enable the feature, you should recreate those campaigns to determine which items require manual remediation. See Copy campaigns.
