Setting up Okta SSO

Step-by-step walkthrough for connecting Okta to Trebellar

View as Markdown

This guide walks through connecting Okta to Trebellar, screen by screen. For an overview of how SSO works in Trebellar — including what happens after the connection is live — see Single sign-on (SSO).

Before you start

Make sure you have:

  • Admin access to your Okta account.
  • Your Trebellar Org ID — provided by your Trebellar account rep.
  • Admin access to your Trebellar workspace — needed to configure SSO login behavior after the connection is live.

Don’t share your Client Secret over email. Send it to your account rep via a secure channel instead.

For the details to collect from Okta and send to Trebellar (entry point, issuer, and IdP certificate), see the SAML configuration reference on the main SSO page.

Step-by-step OIDC setup

Steps:

  1. Log into the Okta Admin Console, navigate to Applications > Applications, and click Create App Integration.
  2. Select OIDC – OpenID Connect and Web Application, then click Next.
  3. Name your app (e.g., “Trebellar SSO”), confirm the Authorization Code grant type, and enter the redirect URIs from the configuration reference above.
  4. Go to the Assignments tab and assign the users or groups who need SSO access to Trebellar.
  5. Collect your Okta Domain, Client ID, and Client Secret from the app integration settings.
  6. Send the collected details to your Trebellar account rep via a secure channel. Trebellar will complete the connection and confirm when SSO is live for your org.

After the connection is live

Once Trebellar confirms SSO is enabled, configure how sign-in is handled for users who don’t yet exist in your org — see Configuring SSO login behavior in Trebellar.
