Before you begin configuring Okta, make sure that:
  • You have a valid subscription with Okta that handles the sign-in process and eventually provides the authentication credentials to the Cloud App Security management console.
  • You are logged on to the management console as a Cloud App Security global administrator.

  2. Click Admin in the upper right, and then navigate to Applications → Applications.
