I am integrating okta sign in flow with AEM SPA site. Okta sign in page is already created and hosted as separate application using okta widgets ,so once user is authenticated then I need to verify user logged -in status in sling filter and return the resource. if anyone has integrated okta on their AEM site, please provide some pointers?

 

 

AEM version 6.5 with react spa editor

I tried to check if there are okta java sdk examples that can do what I am trying to do but couldn't find it

Hi,

 

Did you try to use SAML to integrate AEM with Okta, there are several tutorials explaining how to integrate Okta and AEM, please see below:

I think you can even customize the OKTA login page as well (if the style is a concern) but this needs to be done in Okta side

Hi @estebanbustamante ,

 

We are migrating an existing website to AEM so we will need to use existing okta application to user existing user base. Existing okta application is not SAML based so we can not integrate using SAML.

 

Also client doesnt want external users to be created/synced to AEM
