    Article Summary

    SysAid’s Okta Repository integration allows you to more efficiently manage the users in your company from one central location, by automatically pulling user data from Okta to SysAid. The integration runs these data imports on a schedule that you define; saving time and preventing human error that could occur from manually copying the data.

    While this integration provides admins with access to users from Azure within SysAid, the users themselves cannot access SysAid unless you also enable the Okta integration.
