Tutorial: Ansible and Account Automation with Okta
How to integrate Okta and Ansible to manage accounts in servers while abstracting account management from your playbooks
Hello, thank you for this information. It helps a lot. I wanted to see if you would have the ability to provide any documentation for the flow of a developer’s authentication in regards to their logging into Ansible Automation Platform. Then how the flow works from there on out in it’s auth to remote nodes when deploying custom developed and complied rpm packages for their product. Let’s say I’m a developer at Amazon for the Amazon Music app development team. I’ve been tasked from the security team to provide a set list of the functions and authentication methods/protocols used. From the start of my logging into Ansible Automation Platform, to the remote control nodes (if exist) to remote hosts for the code to be executed. Personally, I know most of the time, the code is being executed on AAP Controller node and then pushed over ssh to the remote node. However for some of the developers who deal in the OS patching side of the house with-in these teams. They actually execute the RPM packages they are developing on the remote host.
