Okta (API Token)

🚀 Quickstart

Connect to Okta with Nango and see data flow in 2 minutes.

Create the integration

In Nango (free signup), go to Integrations -> Configure New Integration -> Okta (API Token).

Authorize Okta

Go to Connections -> Add Test Connection, enter your Okta Domain and API Token, then save. Later, you’ll let your users do the same directly from your app.

Call the Okta API

Let’s make your first request to the Okta API (fetch the token owner’s user record). Replace the placeholders below with your secret key, integration ID, and connection ID:

cURL
Node

curl "https://api.nango.dev/proxy/api/v1/users/me" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <NANGO-SECRET-KEY>" \
  -H "Provider-Config-Key: <INTEGRATION-ID>" \
  -H "Connection-Id: <CONNECTION-ID>"

Install Nango’s backend SDK with npm i @nangohq/node. Then run:

import { Nango } from '@nangohq/node';

const nango = new Nango({ secretKey: '<NANGO-SECRET-KEY>' });

const res = await nango.get({
    endpoint: '/api/v1/users/me',
    providerConfigKey: '<INTEGRATION-ID>',
    connectionId: '<CONNECTION-ID>'
});

console.log(res.data);

Or fetch credentials with the Node SDK or API.✅ You’re connected! Check the Logs tab in Nango to inspect requests.

API gotchas

Okta strongly recommends OAuth 2.0 over API tokens for production use — see Okta (Client Credentials) for the OAuth alternative. API tokens are still useful for quick scripts or when an API Services app isn’t an option.
