I am looking to switch to OKTA in a near term. however I already have SQL database with usernames/passwords and encryptions. Is it possible to have OKTA use my SQL database for user auth/registration/sign in process till we migrate our users to OKTA?
Thank you!
Are you saying the users will be created in Okta but they will authenticate against your SQL database?
they are (users) will be created in our SQL Database as well (next to ones that already exist), using username instead of email. (we are not using emails for logins/registrations)
Till we are ready to migrate all user database to OKTA and move to OKTA’s user store completely.
After more than 1year since the question posted, what is the answer?
I know of now way to support this within Okta.
We only support logging users in via a support external Identity Provider. If you stood up a SAML or OIDC integration that connected to your database and added it as an IdP within Okta, I could see that working until you can migrate the users into Okta directly.,
