Using Text-Em-All with Okta

If your organization uses Okta, you can integrate it with Text-Em-All to make logging in easier and more secure.

This article walks you through the steps to set up your Text-Em-All application in Okta. Once complete, your team will be able to access Text-Em-All using single sign-on (SSO).

Setting Up the Integration in Okta

To get started, you'll need admin access to your Okta account.

Step 1: Create a New App Integration

Log into Okta as an administrator.
From the top menu, select Applications > Create App Integration.
Choose OIDC – OpenID Connect as the sign-in method.
Select Web Application as the application type.
Click Next to continue.

Step 2: App Integration Details

Replace My Web App with Text-Em-All as the App integration name.
Upload the logo provided by your Text-Em-All contact (optional).
Leave the Grant type as the default: Authorization Code.

Replace your organization name with a unique identifier (e.g., ABC Company, Acme).
Enter your redirect URI using this format: https://app.text-em-all.com/oidc/login-callback/your-organization-name

You can assign users or groups at this step or do it later.
Click Save.

Step 3: Edit General Settings

Scroll down to the General Settings section of your newly created app.
Click Edit.

Step 4: Update Login Settings

Under the Login section:
- Change Login initiated by dropdown option to Either Okta or App.
- Check both Application visibility boxes.
Set the Initiate Login URI using the same format as earlier: https://app.text-em-all.com/oidc/login/your-organization-name
Click Save to store your changes.

Final Step: Email Setup Info to Text-Em-All

To complete the setup on Text-Em-All's side, please email the following details to Text-Em-All:

Your organization name
The Client ID and Client Secret generated by Okta

You can copy these values directly from your Okta dashboard using the copy icons.

Once we receive your information, we’ll finish the setup on our side and let you know when everything’s ready.
