How to Configure SSO in Okta for Udemy Business

This guide provides the steps required to configure Single Sign-On using Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML 2.0) and Provisioning using System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM 2.0) for Udemy Business.

  • Existing Okta and Udemy Business customers who wish to enable SCIM Provisioning in Okta should use this configuration guide.
  • Learn how to configure advanced SSO settings on an organizational level.
  • Cohort learning: Review how to configure SSO for our cohort learning platform, Corp U.

Notes:

  • Single sign-on and provisioning are available to Udemy Business Enterprise Plan customers.
  • Users provisioned through Okta will not take up a license until they log into the Udemy Business application for the first time. 
  • SCIM provisioning changes can only be synced from Okta to Udemy Business, not the other way round. 
  • Users and Groups managed by SCIM in Okta cannot be changed within the Udemy Business app - SCIM is the single source of truth for user and group data.

7 - Navigate back to your Udemy Business account and access the Single sign-on (SSO) settings. On the configuration page, choose the appropriate metadata configuration method, and follow the instructions to create the SSO connection with your Identity Provider and Udemy Business.

Note:  If you are looking to enable Login via SSO provider only within Optional settings, please ensure your SSO is properly working by logging out and logging back in via SSO, before enabling this feature. Otherwise, you may be locked out of your Udemy Business account.
