Okta Log Ingestion with AWS Overview

If your organization uses Okta to securely manage user authentication across multiple applications and devices, you can use LogicMonitor to ingest logs from Okta. LogicMonitor leverages an AWS CloudFormation stack to automate the log collection, processing, and forwarding from Okta. For more information, see What is AWS CloudFormation? from AWS. 

Use the GitHub repository containing the Okta log integration to enter the relevant parameters and create the CloudFormation stack. For more information, see Okta Log Collector for LM Logs GitHub repository. Once the stack is created, the Okta logs will be ingested and forwarded based on your configuration. 

Review the following to see how Okta log ingestion works when integrated with AWS using CloudFormation stacks:
