MicroStrategy ONE

Add Okta Information to MicroStrategy Identity and Synchronize Users

  1. Return to the Identity Agent configuration page in MicroStrategy Identity Manager. When the Identity Agent successfully connects to your Okta Universal Directory, the status displays as Connected. Click Next.
  2. On the Configure page, map the MicroStrategy Identity fields to the corresponding Okta Universal Directory attributes, including first name, last name, full name, title, email, and email groups.
    • First Name: The key used to store users' first names. Default: firstName.
    • Last Name: The key used to store users' last names. Default: lastName.
    • Full Name: The key used to store users' full names. Default: displayName.
    • Title: The key used to store users' job titles. Default: title.
    • Email: The key used to store users' email addresses. Default: email.
    • Email Groups: The key used to store the email groups a user is a member of. Default: memberOf.
  3. You can also synchronize additional information from your Okta Universal Directory system. For example, you can include profile photos, as described in Including Profile Photos in Okta. Another example is including information about each user that is displayed on the user's badge, as described in Displaying Additional User Information on a Badge.
    1. Click Add to add a new row.
    2. From the User Info drop-down list, select a name for the user information that you want to synchronize. You can also add a custom name. To do this, click Add New. Enter a name for the user information that you want to synchronize and press ENTER.
    3. From the Available Okta Attributes drop-down list, select the Okta field that corresponds to the user information that you want to synchronize. For example, if you add a field for Photo URL, select the Okta Universal Directory field that contains information about the location of users' profile photos.
  4. Click Save to save your changes and apply the Okta mapping information.
  5. On the Import page, select each group that you want to import into your MicroStrategy Identity Network. All users included in these groups will be added to your MicroStrategy Identity Network.
  6. After you have selected the groups to add, click Import. Review the confirmation message, then click Yes.
  7. If you have not configured MicroStrategy Identity to automatically send badges when you import users (see Enabling badge invitations to be sent automatically), you must manually send badges to your users:
    1. Under User Management, click Manage Users. The Users page opens.
    2. Open the Badge Invitation tab and select the check box next to each user who you want to send a badge to.
    3. Click Send Badge(s) via Email, then click Send on the confirmation message. Badge invitations are sent to the users listed with links and instructions for users to download the MicroStrategy Badge app, and activate their new badge on mobile devices.
