Okta Auth0 Setup for Workbench

Prerequisites

1. You must have an Auth0 user account with admin privileges to create the API keys.

Step 1: Create a Custom API in Auth0

1. Log in to the Auth0 dashboard.

2. Navigate to Applications > APIs.

3. Select Auth0 Management API.

4. Copy the "Identifier" URL without the /api/v2/ path on the end and save it in a safe place for use in a later step.

   
5. In the side navigation under Applications, choose Applications and select Create Application.

6. Choose Machine to Machine Applications and select Create.

7. On the Authorize Machine to Machine Application screen, select Auth0 Management API from the dropdown.

8. Assign the following permissions:

   • read:logs_users

   • read:logs

   • read:users

   • read:user_idp_tokens

9. Select Authorize.

10. On the My App page, select the Settings tab.

11. Copy and save the Client ID and Client Secret values to a safe place for use in a later step.

Step 2: Add Okta Auth0 as a Security Device in Workbench

1. Log in to Workbench.

2. In the side menu, navigate to Organization Settings > Security Devices.

3. Select the Add Security Device button.

4. In the search box, type “auth0” and then select the Okta Auth0 integration.

   
5. Complete the fields as follows:

   • Name - enter a name that might help you more easily identify this integration, such as “CompanyName Auth0”; this name will display in Workbench under the Name column, and is a text string that you can filter on.

   • Location - enter the location of your integration, for example “cloud”; this is also a text string that you can filter on, so we recommend being consistent with location naming across your Expel integrations.

   • Auth0 URL - enter the Auth0 Management API identifier without /api/v2/ on the end. For example, https://companyname.us.auth0.com.

   • Auth0 client ID - enter the Client ID you saved earlier.

   • Auth0 client secret - enter the Client Secret you saved earlier.

6. Select Save.

Your device should be created successfully within a few seconds. A few reminders:

• After your connection is healthy, it will take some time for your device to begin polling and receiving data.

• To check on the status, select the downward arrow for your device in the first column and choose View details.

• Polling will happen first; data will be received after that. You must refresh the page to see updates.

• If your device does not begin polling within 15 minutes, and does not begin receiving data within 30 minutes, contact our support team for help.

• To check if alerts are coming through, navigate to Dashboards > Alert Analysis. Scroll to the device you want to check, and select the Expel Alerts tab to reveal more alert information. It can take 36 to 72 hours for alerts to appear after setup, as we tune your device.
