Configuring Okta for LMS v4 requires creating a Single-Page Application (SPA), which differs from the Web Application method used in LMS v3.

Clients upgrading to LMS v4 and using Okta must add the new LMS v4 callback URL provided by Intellek to their OKTA application to ensure proper functionality after the upgrade is complete.

In addition, the LMS v4 callback URL must be added to the Trusted Sites security zone and Pop-up Blocker exception lists.

Use the following steps as a guide to setting up Okta for LMS v4.

Create the Application

1.Log in to the Okta Admin Console.

2.Navigate to Applications > Applications, then click Create App Integration.

3.Select OIDC – OpenID Connect as the Sign-in method.

4.Choose Single-Page Application as the application type.

5.Click Next.

Configure General Settings

1.Complete the application settings:  

•App integration name - Enter a name for the application. This is the name displayed in Okta.

•Logo - Upload a logo if desired.

•Sign-in Redirect URIs - Enter the following URI (callback URL provided by Intellek): https://[Intellek_LMS_URL]/authentication/sso/okta-callback (Replace [Intellek_LMS_URL] with your LMS URL)

Note: For new clients or LMS implementations, Intellek recommends testing OKTA SSO in a test environment before enabling it on your production site. First, enter the test site URI provided by Intellek. You may add the production URI using Add URI, or update the primary URI after testing has been completed successfully.  

 

•Controlled Access - Select whether the application is available to all users or only assigned users/groups:

oTo allow organization-wide access, select Allow everyone in your organization access.

•Federation Broker Mode - Enable if required for your environment.

2.Click Save.

3.After the application has been created, open the application page and record the following values:
