Okta can integrate with Meraki for SAML and RADIUS authentication, there isn’t a direct integration available for managing Meraki Cloud Auth users through Okta.
The Meraki API does provide endpoints for managing users, but these would need to be used in conjunction with Okta’s APIs to synchronize user data between the two platforms. This would likely involve writing a custom script or application to handle the synchronization.
Use Okta’s Event Hooks or System Log API to monitor for events related to user creation, updates, and deletions.
Sync changes to Meraki: When a relevant event is detected in Okta, use the Meraki API to make the corresponding change to the user in Meraki.
Implement error handling to ensure that failures in the synchronization process are dealt with appropriately. Also consider how to handle edge cases, such as conflicts between the two systems.
This approach would require some development effort and ongoing maintenance to ensure the synchronization process continues to work as expected. If you don’t have the resources to develop and maintain this kind of integration in-house, you might want to consider working with a professional services provider or a managed services provider with experience in Okta and Meraki integrations.
I am not a Cisco Meraki employee. My suggestions are based on documentation of Meraki best practices and day-to-day experience.
