Tyk API Gateway

Okta integrates with Tyk in several different ways: Admin SSO: SSO from Okta into the Tyk admin dashboard via OIDC. Note: you must install Tyk Identity Broker as part of this process. Authentication (id token): Tyk can enforce OIDC access to an endpoint. Set Okta up as an OIDC provider and Tyk will check for a valid id token before passing on the request to an endpoint. Authorization: Tyk has a somewhat unique approach in that Tyk approaches authorization via jwt, which is different from many other API gateways. A jwt passed to Tyk must include a “policy id” claim. This policy id tells Tyk which Tyk policy is valid for that jwt. Tyk does not support extracting scopes from external jwts.

Add this integration to enable authentication and provisioning capabilities.
