Who can use this feature?
Workspace Owners, Super Admins, and Admins
Supported using the Cerby web app
As a workspace Admin, Super Admin, or Owner, you can update the settings of the Extended account access feature for Okta. With this feature, you and all workspace members can sync and extend the accounts they own to access them from their Okta dashboard powered by Cerby’s automated login.
You may want to update these settings if the domain of your Okta instance changes or the Okta API token expires. Cerby will display the Update status in your workspace settings to indicate when the token is no longer valid to perform syncs.
