Okta

This guide explains how to send Base64-encoded HTTP headers with Okta Access Gateway (OAG) using nginx configuration extensions. It covers internal-only app setup, usage of OpenResty modules, and examples for encoding user data in headers. Solutions include native nginx directives and Lua scripting, supporting common legacy integration needs for secure internal communication and custom header enrichment.

Enable rapid SCIM server testing with Okta using Flask, Docker Compose, and ngrok tunnels. This guide details a working starter solution with persistent PostgreSQL data, Makefile commands for easy management, and public access via ngrok. Ideal for demo and development, it supports Okta provisioning but implements no production-grade security. Sample endpoints, troubleshooting notes, and port references included for quick setup.
