Add Okta Tenant Information in Omnissa Access

Add your Okta tenant information and API token in the Omnissa Access console to enable Omnissa Access to connect to the Okta tenant to retrieve Okta apps and user entitlements. This is a one-time, initial configuration task.

Before you configure the tenant information in Omnissa Access, obtain an API token from the Okta Admin console.
