Okta Workflows 2024.08.0 Release

Current release

Production release of Okta Workflows 2024.08.0 began deployment on August 16, 2024.

IP session restrictions for Okta Workflows now in GA

The IP session restrictions feature is now enabled for Okta Workflows. This feature ensures that all Workflows requests in a session use the same IP address that was logged when the session was created. If the IP address doesn’t match any request, the session is terminated and the admin must sign in again.

If you want to disable the feature, contact Okta Support.

OAuth 2.0 security to invoke API endpoints now available in EA

Okta Workflows users can securely invoke API endpoints using OAuth 2.0 protocols and their Okta org authorization server. Compared with the existing token authorization option, this Early Access feature provides more security while also being easier to implement. Add the okta.workflows.invoke.manage scope to any new or existing app integration to make it eligible to invoke your API endpoint.

See Invoke a flow with an API endpoint.

Improvements to clarify incorrect card input

When provided with invalid input, some cards return a Max command request/response attempts reached error message instead of returning an error that the input is invalid. This behavior has been corrected and the card doesn’t attempt to retry the query with invalid input.

Improvements to Execution History Inspector view

When you view an in-progress flow execution, the Execution History Inspector now automatically scrolls to bring the most recently executed card into view.

Browser interface improvement for folders

The folder name is now included on your browser tab when you have a folder open in either the Folders view or in Connector Builder.

Fixes in Okta Workflows

  • After reverting a moved folder action in Okta Workflows, the System Log didn’t correctly record the folder paths.
  • Sometimes a currently running flow was marked as complete in the flow’s Execution History.
  • The Tables Search Row function card returned an internal server error when it contained a filter that used a string value instead of a strict boolean.
  • 9The Yubico template failed for orders that were made in countries without a state in the address.
