Set Up Okta SSO for JustCall
Okta SSO lets your team authenticate to JustCall through Okta's identity platform. This removes the need for separate JustCall passwords and gives your IT team control over access from a single dashboard. SSO is available on the Business plan.
Prerequisites
- JustCall Business plan
- Okta admin access (Super Admin or Application Admin role)
- A verified email domain in JustCall
Step 1: Enable SSO in JustCall
- Go to Settings → Security → Single Sign-On in JustCall.
- Click Enable SSO and select SAML 2.0.
- Copy the ACS URL and Entity ID.
Step 2: Create a SAML App Integration in Okta
-
Log into the Okta Admin Console.
-
Go to Applications → Applications → Create App Integration.
-
Select SAML 2.0 and click Next.
-
Set the App name to JustCall. Upload a logo if desired. Click Next.
-
Configure SAML settings:
Field Value Single sign-on URL Paste the ACS URL from JustCall Audience URI (SP Entity ID) Paste the Entity ID from JustCall Name ID format EmailAddress Application username Okta username (email) -
Add attribute statements:
Name Value email user.email firstName user.firstName lastName user.lastName -
Click Next.
-
Select I'm an Okta customer adding an internal app and click Finish.
Step 3: Copy Okta Identity Provider Details
- In the Okta app you just created, go to the Sign On tab.
- Under SAML Signing Certificates, click Actions → View IdP metadata for the active certificate.
- From the metadata page (or the Sign On tab details), copy:
- Identity Provider Single Sign-On URL
- Identity Provider Issuer
- Download the X.509 Certificate.
Step 4: Complete Configuration in JustCall
- Return to Settings → Security → Single Sign-On in JustCall.
- Enter:
- SSO URL: Identity Provider Single Sign-On URL
- Issuer / Entity ID: Identity Provider Issuer
- Certificate: Upload the X.509 certificate
- Set the Default Role for new SSO users.
- Click Save Configuration.
- Click Test Connection.
Step 5: Assign Users and Groups
- In the Okta Admin Console, go to your JustCall application.
- Click the Assignments tab.
- Click Assign → Assign to People or Assign to Groups.
- Select the users or groups and click Assign, then Save and Go Back.
Only assigned users can access JustCall through Okta. If a user is unassigned, they immediately lose SSO access.
User Login Flow
- From Okta: Users click the JustCall tile in their Okta dashboard.
- From JustCall: Users click Sign in with SSO on the login page and enter their company email. They are redirected to Okta for authentication.
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Solution |
|---|---|
| "Invalid SAML response" | Verify the ACS URL and Entity ID match between Okta and JustCall. Check for trailing slashes. |
| User gets "not assigned" error | Assign the user to the JustCall app in Okta (Assignments tab). |
| Attributes missing | Confirm attribute statement names exactly match: email, firstName, lastName. |
| Certificate error | Re-download the active certificate from Okta. Expired certificates cause authentication failures. |
