Please follow the steps below to configure the SAML application in Okta:
Step 1: Create a SAML application in Okta
Log in to your Okta admin dashboard and create a new SAML application for your WordPress site.
Step 2: Enter the application details
While creating the application, add the application name and upload the logo if needed.
Step 3: Configure app visibility
During the application setup, you will see an option to control whether the Okta app tile should be displayed in the Okta end-user dashboard. Refer to the image below for guidance.
If you want to hide the Okta application tile from the end-user dashboard, enable the Do not display application icon to users option.
Step 4: Complete the SSO configuration
Finish configuring the SAML settings in Okta and complete the SSO setup between WordPress and Okta.
Step 5: Open the Okta end-user dashboard
Once the setup is completed, open the Okta end-user dashboard. If the app visibility option is enabled, you will see the Okta app tile there. Refer to the images below for reference.
Step 6: Log in using the Okta app tile
The user can click on the Okta tile from the Okta dashboard and will be logged in automatically.
