Authorization in Xsolla Publisher Account via Okta

How it works

Users who have an Okta account can login into Xsolla Publisher Account.

The interaction flow during the first authorization:

1. The user authorizes the Okta account.
2. The user selects the Xsolla Publisher Account application on the main page.
3. The user redirects to an email address input page.
4. The user enters the email address that is linked to the Okta account.
5. The Xsolla Login server sends an account confirmation email to the user.
6. The user follows the link from the confirmation email and is redirected to the Xsolla Publisher Account.

For subsequent authorizations, account confirmation is not needed.
