Verify User's Group Membership in Okta via Slack Command - Workflow Template

Receive a Slack command with the users email and optional group and provide the group membership including a match if a group is provided.

Updated over 6 months ago

This workflow template facilitates quick identity and access management within an organization by allowing users to verify a user's group membership in Okta through a Slack command. When a Slack command is issued, the workflow checks Okta for the specified user's details and assigned groups. If a specific group is mentioned in the Slack command, the workflow will verify membership in that group. Finally, it responds to the Slack user with the appropriate group membership status of the queried user. This automates and centralizes group membership checks, enhancing productivity and security governance.
