User Assigned to Application

Trigger a flow when a user is assigned to an application in Okta API.

Options

Field Definition Type Required
Use App Instance ID?

If you choose Yes, then you can select the application instance directly through the App Instance ID field.

Dropdown FALSE
Application

Choose an app to trigger a flow for when a user is added to its membership.

Choose Enter Application ID to select an app by its ID.

The dropdown displays up to 1000 apps.

Dropdown FALSE
Application Instance

Choose from a list of existing application instances, dependent on the application chosen in the previous step.

The dropdown displays up to 2000 app instances.

This event triggers only for the selected application instance. If you don't see your application instance in the list, use the Use App Instance ID? dropdown list and the App Instance ID field to trigger the event for a specific application instance.

Dropdown FALSE
Application Instance ID Unique app instance ID. If you chose Yes in the Use App Instance ID? option, you can interact with your application instance directly through its ID.

To find the application instance ID for an app, complete the following steps:

  1. In the Admin Console, go to Applications.

  2. Click your app to open the application settings page.

  3. In your browser, the URL for this application page contains the app ID: https://yourcompany.okta.com/admin/app/yourappname/instance/YOURAPPINSTANCEID/

    For example, in https://acme.okta.com/admin/app/office365/instance/0oahjhk34aUxGnWcZ0h7/, the app instance ID is 0oahjhk34aUxGnWcZ0h7.
