SAML SSO using Okta
atSpoke is excited to offer an integration with Okta. atSpoke's SAML integration relies on a user level token. To insure consistent delivery of SAML services, atSpoke best practices recommend using an admin service account such as IT@yourcompany.com to complete this integration.
Supported Features
The Okta/atSpoke (www.askspoke.com) SAML integration currently supports the following features:
- SP-initiated SSO
- IdP-initiated SSO
- JIT (Just In Time) Provisioning
For more information on the listed features, visit the Okta Glossary.
For atSpoke-specific SAML best practices, make sure you read the Before you Begin section.

Before you begin
- Assign the app to yourself in Okta for testing first.
- Only atSpoke Admins have the superpowers to enable SAML for the organization.
- After SAML is enabled, all non-admin members in atSpoke must log in with SAML. Admins who have not setup a password will be prompted by a banner in the web app. Admins can still log in with a password as needed.
- Because the SSO setup will log out all users and admins, it’s best to setup SAML when there are few users logged in. Whether it be before launch, or outside of business hours.
- atSpoke offers just in time provisioning. This means that if a user logs into atSpoke for the first time using SSO, an account will automatically be created.
