Hi everyone,

Is there an API that provides the vendor and application names (e.g.: Google - Gmail, Microsoft - OneDrive, Slack - Slack) for installed Okta apps?

Thanks!

Have you taken a look at the Apps API? That will allow you to list all the application instances present in an org. You’ll see that in the sample responses in the right panel on that page show that it will return the application name and label.

Thank you for your reply! I’ve tried exploring the Apps API, but the closest fields I found are the label (user-defined) and the name, which seems to be an identifier for the app (e.g., “google” for Google Workspace Apps, “skydrive” for MS OneDrive, “slack” for Slack, “whiteboardms” for MS Whiteboard). However, I’m looking for a more accurate and reliable source for the official names. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

The name is the field that is going to be the more “official” version of the name. For any application found in our Okta Integration Network, the name will be specific to that integration (you’ll see that we specify what this value is for the OIN apps we have documented on the Apps API docs, e.g. Zoom’s OIN integration has the name ‘zoomus’). Note that all instances of the same OIN app will have the same name, so they will not be unique within the org.

I’ll also add that we do not currently document this list of names anywhere, just the ones mentioned explicitly in these api docs (configuring OIN apps via API is not supported/documented for all OIN apps).
