Supported Authentication Attributes

The set of authentication attributes supported by Okta is smaller than the set formerly supported by CAS. Applications that need other data should retrieve that information from the system of record.

One of the following attribute sets may be selected in DSA Manager.
    • IAM ID

    The IAM ID uniquely identifies the authenticated account in the authorization system. You may use this identifier to correlate records in your application and to request domain-specific identifiers from other systems. You MUST NOT use this identifier as the primary key in your application.
