Using Striim Platform with Okta
You can configure Striim Platform to allow users in your organization to log in using Okta single sign-on (SSO). This requires you to create a SAML application in Okta, assign that application to your users, and configure Striim Platform to trust Okta as an identity provider (IdP). For more information, see SAML app integrations.
