About Okta
Okta is rebuilding developer identity around AI agents and 'builders,' not just apps.
Okta's developer surface is pivoting toward AI agents. Its Cross App Access (XAA) work — bringing agent-to-API connections under the enterprise identity layer instead of static API keys — now spans OIDC, SAML, and the Okta Integration Network. Alongside that, it relaunched documentation as task-oriented 'Journeys' and rebranded Developer Advocacy to 'Builder Advocacy.'
