Supported Features

Swiftlane OKTA integration support bulk import of users and groups, from OKTA into Swiftlane. Swiftlane then maps OKTA groups to Swiftlane groups, so that you can control physical access to your building simply by enrolling users in the correct OKTA user group.

How does this integration work?

Swiftlane + Okta integration allows bulk user import from Okta to Swiftlane. Admin access to both systems is required to complete the integration.

Prerequisites

  1. Map Okta groups to Swiftlane user groups. Swiftlane groups grant access to doors and you can assign more than one Swiftlane group for each Okta group. All users from Okta will be imported. Swiftlane will create groups with the same name as in Okta if you don't select Swiftlane groups for mapping.
