Upload certificate files to build your certificate chain. The files must be in .pem or .der format.

Upload all the files and click Build certificate chain. The chain and its certificates appear.

Select a Smart Card attribute from the dropdown menu to use as the IdP username. You can also define a custom username using Okta Expression Language. See Smart Card idpUser expressions and Expressions.

Select an Okta attribute from the dropdown menu. The IdP username is matched against this value to find an existing user account in Okta.

Select what to do if no matching user account is found in Okta.

• Redirect to Okta sign-in page: The end user is redirected to the Okta sign-in page.
• Create new user (JIT): Okta creates a new Active user in Universal Directory. Specify how to create the Just in Time (JIT) account in JIT settings.

Map the Smart Card attributes to the user profile attributes that are required in Okta. The default required Okta user profile attributes are login, first name, last name, and email. However, depending on your configuration there may be more required profile attributes.

The Smart Card attribute you've selected for IdP username is mapped to the login attribute in Universal Directory when creating a JIT user. In the Profile Editor mappings, ensure the value mapped to the login attribute conforms to your username requirements.

Click Edit profile and mappings to map the values in the Profile Editor. See Map profile attributes.

Optional. In addition to the Okta-required values, you can specify more certificate values required to create the JIT account. Certificates without these values are denied access.

Select a Smart Card attribute from the dropdown menu and specify a corresponding required certificate value. You can also define a custom value using Okta Expression Language.

If you require more attributes, select if all or any of them are required to create the JIT account.

Optional. Select groups to which the user created by JIT is assigned. You can assign the user to multiple groups.
