Registration Inline Hook
Extend Self-Service Registration with external custom logic or 3rd party services to modify and validate profiles before completing registration.
Progressive profiling
Incrementally build customer profiles over the customer’s lifetime by adding progressive profiling for required and optional attributes.
Limit initial registration forms to the bare minimum and delay asking users for additional information until necessary to reduce abandonment rates.
Ask for additional attributes later in the customer journey.
API-based user management
Programmatically create and manage users using powerful APIs or SDKs built for automating user tasks.
Event Hooks
Event Hooks allow you to be notified of certain events within Okta so you can more tightly integrate with or kickoff processes in downstream technologies. Potential customizations made possible by Event Hooks include:
- Push newly registered user into the rest of your marketing technology stack, including email marketing systems, analytics, CRM, data warehouse, etc.
- After a user registers in Okta, complete the account creation process across backend systems
- Sync user profile updates into downstream data stores
- Upon user deletion in Okta, begin the process of deleting user data in other related systems

Inline Import Hook
