Is there a way to streamline moving Okta apps you create in one org to another? Right now it appears you could possibly use the Okta Get App and Add App requests to potentially do this.

What’s the best practice if you create something in your dev Okta org and want to move it to a different Okta org? Goal is to eliminate any possible misconfigurations.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @mindset,

I would recommend using terraform to manage your Okta org configuration including application metadata. You can find more details about Okta terraform provider here:

> **[Provider: Okta - Terraform by HashiCorp](https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/okta/index.html)**
>
> The Okta provider is used to interact with the resources supported by Okta. The provider needs to be configured with the proper credentials before it can be used.

Thanks Raj. I will look into Terraform.
