# Okta

## Okta Provisioning

With Provisioning you can automate common administrative tasks. By enabling the System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) you can connect Visma with Okta, so you can:

- Create users and groups
- Grant and revoke access to groups
- Edit attributes of users and groups
- Suspend deprovisioned users

Prerequisites

- Okta admin account
- Before you configure provisioning for Visma, you need to have configured a SAML App integration. A step by step guide to configure Okta as a SAML identity provider within Visma can be found here
- Make sure the ‘Application username format’ is defined as ‘Email’.

### Configuration Steps

Once you have the SAML integration ready in Okta, follow the steps below:

1. Under your **SAML application** go to the “ **Gen**eral” tab and select **SCIM for Provisioning** under the **App Settings**.
