Since we don't have direct access to the binary, we would either need to rely on customers to provide the installer with each release or set up a development tenant—something we are not willing to support at this time. Additionally, we are concerned that the binary may be unique to each customer, potentially leading to a situation similar to our previous experience with the think-cell app, which we had to discontinue following direct discussions with the vendor.
At this time, we recommend leveraging our Custom Apps feature as the best path forward.

CONSIDERING / BACKLOG
Per their documentation, they have provided this URL to always pull the latest version of Okta Verify from their CDN server:
https://davidnoie.okta.com/api/v1/artifacts/WINDOWS_OKTA_VERIFY/download?releaseChannel=GA&packageType=EXE
This is the link to the installer. This is always the most up to date installer available and is not specific to customer.
https://okta.hud.gov/api/v1/artifacts/WINDOWS_OKTA_VERIFY/download?releaseChannel=GA&packageType=EXE
Need this.
The EXE supports being updated by a newer version with the /q command + your specific tenant parameters.
Hi PMP support, 128 votes so far any updates from yourselves here on packaging up Okta verify? thanks
Comment from Brett Anderson:
Some notes to support this one:
Okta does have an unauthenticated API path which can be used to pull the binaries, which is cool. The downside is it's only available at a tenant level. The good side is that dev tenants are free! :)
So if PMP stands up a dev tenant (https://www.okta.com/developer/signup), the current binary information can be pulled from:
https://<tenant>.okta.com/api/v1/artifacts/WINDOWS_OKTA_VERIFY/latestThe response will include the release and file information (including file hashes), and the download path for the binaries.
