Okta Discovery

Okta Discovery connects Okta to XFA so you can discover devices associated with your organization. Once connected, XFA uses Okta data to improve device visibility and prepare those devices for reporting, Awareness messages, or Enforcement. Use it to connect the source and confirm devices appear in XFA.
