What is User Sync?
User sync refers to the process of synchronizing user data (such as user profiles, access permissions, and authentication credentials) between different applications or systems. In our case the user data is synchronized between Joomla and Okta. The goal of user sync is to ensure that user data is consistent and up-to-date across Joomla and Okta user directories, which reduces the additional overhead or separately maintaining records and reduces the risk of errors.
Why would you need Okta User Sync?
If your organization uses Okta to store their employee/ user details and you wish your user details to also be reflected in Joomla, you have come to the right place. The Okta User Sync plugin provides user provisioning and deprovisioning to help streamline user management and reduce the risk of errors or inconsistencies in user data. By keeping user data consistent across different systems, the Okta User sync plugin ensures that users have a seamless experience and can access the same resources and information regardless of which system they are using. The miniOrange Okta User Sync automatically keep your Joomla employee/User directory up to date, providing a bi-diretional sync. When changes are made in Joomla, they are immediately pushed to Okta and you don’t have to manually make changes. And your details are out of sync.

Your user will be created with the user profile attributes that you have provided in your registration form such as email, phone number, last name, email, etc.
Single Sign-on Integration

Employee Department Transfer
In your organization, when an employee moves to a different team or transitions to a different role, their user account needs to be updated. With the change in department and job responsibilities, the employee’s access rights and permissions changes. The Okta user sync plugin, not only helps to update the user’s Joomla role but also updates the user’s role in Okta.
Subscription Cancellation
If your site is based on a subscription-based services or membership platforms, users may choose to cancel their subscription or membership. Deactivating their user account ensures that they no longer have access to the premium features or content associated with their subscription. The Okta User sync plugin helps to deactivate a user account in Joomla if they cancel their subscription. If a users wants to reactivate their services, the user account can be reactivate.
