i have a request to integrate OKTA into DataHub what is DataHub and why would it need OKTA data ? i would understand this is not for SAML/OIDC/SCIM but gathering data ? (even though there is a phrase which confuses me:
Copy code
Note that any users ingested from this connector will not be able to log into DataHub unless you have Okta OIDC SSO enabled. You can, however, have these users ingested into DataHub before they log in for the first time if you would like to take actions like adding them to a group or assigning them a role.
so - what would such integration be for, in the end ?
b
Possibly, this would allow other people to tag these staff with data assets so that viewers of the dataset would know who to contact?
s
would it be possible to generate data on what applications are used (SSO application triggered through the OKTA dashboard)?
b
Sorry, not familiar enough with okta to know what you're referring to
s
just reading through the integration support and i see that it reads only users, group and membership but no information on integrated applications
is there a google plugin to get the information ? i would not like to use okta for retrieving users/groups
b
Yes I don't think it lists down applications, only people and groups.
Not aware of any google plugins
s
so - far i see only LDAP (our google offers LDAP)
b
Can also ingest via ldap if I recall. Creates users and groups(?)
s
well - i dont want users and groups being created in datahub (at least not to its directory which handles access to datahub) tx anyway for your answers
