HacWare users have the ability to configure a default Identity Provider to power Single Sign On (SSO). This article details how to configure Okta as the primary Identity Provider to facilitate SSO with the HacWare partner application.
Supported Features
Service Provider (SP)-Initiated Authentication (SSO) Flow - This authentication flow occurs when the user attempts to log in to the application from HacWare.
Identity Provider (IDP)-Initiated Authentication (SSO) Flow - This authentication flow occurs when the user attempts to log in to HacWare from Okta.
Requirements
In order to proceed with configuring login with SSO through Okta, you must:
Have access to an Okta tenant
Be an Okta administrator to that tenant
Be an existing HacWare partner. If you do not have a partner account you can apply for one here: https://www.hacware.com/msp.html#partner-app
Configuration Steps
You will need to provide your Okta credentials to HacWare. This is done in HacWare’s partner portal. You can login here: https://www.hacware.com/api/auth/partner-login/.
Once you have logged in you will see the Integration menu item on the left hand side of the screen.
Once you click Integration, you will see the following choices. Please select the Okta option.
