This article outlines how organizations can reconfigure their existing Okta SSO connection to the standard Udemy SSO infrastructure.
- For additional information, see How to reconfigure your SSO connection from the legacy experience.
- For configuring with OIDC, see this article.
Prerequisites
Before getting started, make sure you have admin access to both Okta and Udemy.
How to reconfigure your SSO connection in Okta with SAML
- In Okta, navigate to your Udemy Application > General.
- In App Settings, click Edit.
-
Make sure the following are configured correctly:
Audience URI: https://sso.udemy.com
Subdomain: Your Udemy Business subdomain (for example, if your login URL is demo.udemy.com, enter demo)
Domain: udemy.com
ACS URL: https://sso.udemy.com/api/oauth/saml
Note: These need to be exact (no trailing slashes).
-
Once complete, click Save and navigate to the Sign On tab. Scroll down and look for the Metadata URL. Copy the value and open a new tab to go to your Udemy admin page.
-
In your SSO settings In Udemy Business, navigate to Manage > Settings > Single sign-on. You'll see a prompt to reconfigure your connection in the top right hand corner of your current connection overview.
- Start the new configuration: Click Reconfigure SSO to enter the edit settings experience.
- Paste in the Metadata URL and click Import metadata.
- Save the connection and test by logging in to your Udemy portal with a private or incognito window.
Reverting to your previous configuration
A revert option is available if you experience authentication issues after reconfiguring, for example if users are unable to log in, you can revert to your previous connection while you troubleshoot.
To do so, go to Admin Tools > Settings > Single sign-on and click Revert to previous in the top right corner of your connection overview. Once you've resolved the issue, you can reconfigure again at any time.

If you have questions or run into issues, contact our support team.
Note: If your SSO connection was originally set up by Udemy's team (a managed connection), you won't be able to reconfigure it directly from the self-serve UI. Please contact your Customer Success Manager or our support team to schedule your migration.
