Dive into simple steps to link Supabase with Okta for smooth single sign-on (SSO). Boost app security and elevate user experience now!
Linking Supabase with Okta for single sign-on (SSO) marries the strong database and backend features of Supabase with Okta's robust security controls. Users can then access many apps and services using one set of login details. The process? First, create an Okta application. Next, configure callbacks. Then, set up SSO with Okta. Finally, integrate everything into Supabase. A good grip on both platforms and their functionalities—like authorization and API management—is crucial to grasp the steps and components. This kind of integration offers a golden chance for businesses aiming to enhance security, refine user experience, and streamline authorization processes.
In the Okta admin console, head over to the Applications
tab and create a new Application Integration. Pick 'Web' as the platform and 'OpenID Connect' for the sign-on method. Configure the app to fit your needs.
In the 'Login redirect URIs' box, enter the base URL of the website you want to authenticate with Okta.
After setting up the application, Okta will give you a client ID and secret. You'll need these for the Supabase integration.
Go to the Supabase dashboard and select your project.
Within your project, navigate to the Auth
section, then the Settings
tab, and finally the External OAuth Providers
section.
Click on + Add Provider
and then choose OpenID
. A new form will pop up.
https://{yourOktaDomain}/oauth2/default/v1/authorize
.https://{yourOktaDomain}/oauth2/default/v1/token
.https://{yourOktaDomain}/oauth2/default/v1/userinfo
.Click Save
.
When a user wants to sign in, redirect them to the Supabase sign-in URL with the 'provider' parameter set to the Provider ID you entered in step 2. The URL should look like this: https://{yourSupabaseUrl}/auth/v1/authorize?provider={yourProviderId}
.
After the user logs in with Okta, they'll be redirected back to your app with an authorization code in the URL. Your app should exchange this code for a token by calling supabase.auth.signIn()
with the provider
parameter set to 'okta' and the code
parameter set to the authorization code from the URL.
Once you've done all this, your users should be able to log in using Okta. Their Okta profile will also be saved in Supabase's Users table, making management a breeze.
