What This Skill Does

The Okta skill for OpenClaw provides a robust interface for managing enterprise identity and access within your organization. It allows the OpenClaw AI agent to interact directly with the Okta API to perform administrative tasks such as listing users, auditing groups, and inspecting application assignments. By leveraging this skill, you can automate identity lifecycle management, streamline user onboarding, and perform real-time security checks across your Okta environment without manual dashboard navigation.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your environment, use the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/mrgoodb/okta

Once installed, you must configure your environment variables to authenticate with your Okta tenant. Set your unique domain (e.g., your-org.okta.com) and provide a valid API Token generated from the Okta admin console under Security > API. Ensure the token has the necessary permissions scoped to the resources you intend to manage.

Use Cases

This skill is designed for system administrators, DevOps engineers, and security analysts who need to automate IAM workflows. Common use cases include generating automated reports of current user groups, auditing active user lists during offboarding processes, and programmatically creating user accounts via chat triggers to speed up provisioning. It is particularly effective for teams looking to reduce manual ticket overhead by allowing an AI agent to handle routine directory information requests.

Example Prompts

1. "OpenClaw, list all users currently registered in the 'DevOps' group in Okta."
2. "Please create a new user profile for Alice Smith using the email [email protected]."
3. "Show me a list of all applications currently configured in our Okta tenant and their status."

Tips & Limitations

When using the Okta skill, always ensure that your API token is stored securely—never hardcode it in scripts shared with others. The current implementation relies on the Okta SSWS token model; verify that your token permissions follow the principle of least privilege. Note that this skill is primarily intended for read-heavy operations and simple user creation; complex operations like multi-step policy adjustments or bulk lifecycle management should be monitored closely. If you encounter connectivity issues, verify that your IP address is whitelisted in your Okta admin dashboard under API security settings.
