OKTA Group Management & Access Controls 3

Question 1

What happens in Okta when a group that is configured with Group Push is deleted directly in the downstream target application?

Accepted Answer

Okta unlinks the group from the push configuration and marks the push status as an error requiring admin action

Answer

Okta automatically recreates the group in the application on the next synchronization cycle

Answer

The corresponding Okta group is also deleted to maintain bidirectional consistency

Answer

Okta creates a duplicate group with a modified name to replace the deleted one

Question 2

Which of the following correctly describes how Okta groups interact with application role assignments?

Accepted Answer

Okta groups can be assigned to specific application roles to control users' access levels within the application

Answer

Okta groups can only be used for authentication gating, not for authorization roles inside applications

Answer

Each Okta group can be assigned to only a single application at a time to prevent role conflicts

Answer

Application role assignments must always be configured individually per user and cannot use groups

Question 3

When an application with provisioning enabled is assigned to an Okta group, what happens when a new user is added to that group?

Accepted Answer

The user is automatically provisioned into the application according to the provisioning configuration

Answer

The user must manually accept the application assignment from their End User Dashboard

Answer

The user is added to the group but must be separately and manually provisioned in the application

Answer

The application generates a new account only after an admin explicitly approves the assignment
