Prerequisites

You must be on the new Pages architecture in order to build secure Pages and sites.

This also cannot use Pages legacy config, but rather must use the new config structure. Refer to this guide to confirm you have the proper setup.

Overview

Using an outside OAuth Provider, in this case Okta, you can authenticate users and secure your entire site and sensitive information. These users will not have access to the Yext Platform. The following steps will walk you through how to configure and integrate your Site with an Okta developer account to follow standard OIDC protocol.

This guide is part of the Consumer Auth Initiative to create Private Sites. Please refer to this Consumer Auth Overview guide before getting started to make sure this is the right option for you.

Additionally, if Okta is NOT your IDP provider, please refer here .
