Okta | Jeli Integration User Guide
Manage User Access
Before users can log in to Jeli through Okta, you will need to provide them access via the Okta admin console. Adding Jeli’s Okta app allows you to assign privileges to use the app, which can be done at the user level or the group level, depending upon your requirements.
Assign Jeli Access to a User
Okta allows you to assign privileges to individuals, if you’d like to authorize a small number of users to access Jeli.
- In the Okta left menu, select Applications Applications.

- Select the Assignments tab, click the Assign dropdown and select Assign to People.
- Search and select the user(s) you wish to authorize.

FAQ
Can I have more than one enterprise SSO Provider?
For technical reasons, only one enterprise connection can be enabled at a given time. If you’re switching to Okta from Entra ID, you will need to coordinate a time for the cutover with PagerDuty Support.
In contrast, if you’re switching to Okta from another authentication method such as Google Auth, there is more flexibility. We can enable Okta while Google Auth is enabled, and then disable Google Auth once you’ve tested and confirmed Okta login.
What information does the Jeli app use?
Jeli’s integration with Okta is used for Single Sign-on (SSO) into the Jeli web app using your organization’s Okta account. We collect the following information for each user who signs in:
- openid: This is the unique identifier Okta uses to identify your account.
- email: Jeli uses email addresses to verify the organization’s domain, link individuals to their Jeli user account, and associate linking accounts on various other services like Slack and PagerDuty.
- profile: We fetch first and last names (where applicable) from Okta user profiles to identify users and update Jeli profiles where needed.
Jeli does not require any access to the Okta API scopes and none should be granted. You can confirm this by going to the Okta Applications page, selecting Jeli, and navigating to the Okta API Scopes tab.
What if I'm having difficulty signing in to Jeli using Okta?
If for any reason you’re having difficulty signing in to Jeli using Okta credentials, try the following:
- Make sure the user signing in has access to your Okta account and can sign in to your own Okta web portal independently of Jeli.
- Check that the Jeli Okta app is added to your Okta account and that it is in the Active state, as listed on the Okta Applications page.
- Confirm the user is authorized to use the Jeli app and their name is on the Assign Applications list (see: Manage User Access).
- Confirm that you are using the domain Jeli has associated with your organization. For instance, if your company is Example, Inc. and your domain is
example.com
, that your email is[email protected]
. - Contact Support for further investigation.
