Here’s my use case:
1- An admin of our web app wants to add 1 or more new users, using their email, firstname, lastname
2- The new users are added to Okta with the Create User without Credentials flow
3- Each new users should receive an email (could come from our backend or templated from Okta) inviting them to complete their account creation by clicking on a link in the email that forwards them to a page that has the same UX as the rest of our web app where they can choose a password, recovery question, etc. and then activate their account
Is this possible? We do not want to send users to Okta’s /welcome page since it cannot be modified to suit our needs.
According to the docs (https://developer.okta.com/docs/reference/api/users/#lifecycle-operations):
- If
sendEmail
isfalse
, returns an activation link for the user to set up their account. The activation token can be used to create a custom activation link.
What does a custom activation link looks like, and how does it use the activation token?
Thanks,
