OKTA OKTA Workflows and Automation 2 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: In Okta Workflows, what is a 'Table'?
- A report exported from Okta's System Log
- A persistent data store within Workflows for storing records (Correct answer)
- A visualization of user group memberships
- A policy table for MFA requirements
Correct answer: A persistent data store within Workflows for storing records
Tables in Okta Workflows are built-in data stores that allow Flows to read, write, and update structured records without an external database.
Question 2: What is the purpose of the 'List' card type in Okta Workflows?
- To display a list of active MFA factors for a user
- To iterate over or manipulate collections of items within a Flow (Correct answer)
- To enumerate all registered Okta apps in the tenant
- To show the Flow execution history in a table format
Correct answer: To iterate over or manipulate collections of items within a Flow
List cards in Okta Workflows allow you to perform operations on arrays or collections, such as filtering, mapping, or looping over items.
Question 3: When using Okta Workflows to deprovision a user, which action would you use to remove them from all their assigned Okta groups?
- Clear User Sessions
- Remove User from All Groups (Correct answer)
- Deactivate User
- Suspend User
Correct answer: Remove User from All Groups
The 'Remove User from All Groups' action card in the Okta connector removes a deprovisioned user from every group they belong to in Okta.
Question 4: Which feature of Okta Workflows allows you to run a subflow from within another Flow?
- Nested Policy
- Child Flow / Helper Flow (Correct answer)
- Delegated Authentication
- Event Hook
Correct answer: Child Flow / Helper Flow
Helper Flows (also called Child Flows) let you encapsulate reusable logic that can be called from multiple parent Flows, promoting modularity.
Question 5: What is the maximum number of concurrent Flow executions Okta Workflows supports by default per tenant?
- 10
- 50
- 100 (Correct answer)
- Unlimited
Correct answer: 100
By default, Okta Workflows allows up to 100 concurrent Flow executions per tenant; this limit can be increased for high-volume use cases.
Question 6: In Okta Workflows, what does the 'If/ElseIf' card allow you to do?
- Schedule a Flow to run only on weekdays
- Branch Flow logic based on conditional evaluation (Correct answer)
- Retry a failed action a specified number of times
- Set the timeout duration for an HTTP API call
Correct answer: Branch Flow logic based on conditional evaluation
The If/ElseIf card evaluates one or more conditions and routes the Flow down different execution branches depending on which condition is true.
