How to connect LinkedIn and Okta
Create a New Scenario to Connect LinkedIn and Okta
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.
Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a LinkedIn, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, LinkedIn or Okta will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find LinkedIn or Okta, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring LinkedIn, Okta, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the LinkedIn and Okta integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between LinkedIn and Okta (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect LinkedIn and Okta
LinkedIn + Okta + Slack: When a new post is created on a LinkedIn organization page, a new user account is created in Okta, and a welcome message is sent to the new user in Slack.
Okta + LinkedIn + BambooHR: When an employee is terminated in Okta (via a new event), their LinkedIn profile data is retrieved, a post is created on LinkedIn announcing their departure, and their employee data is archived in BambooHR.
