Manage Okta users and groups — identity lifecycle for an org.
Okta ships in the w6w first-party pack. It declares 11 actions, 2 health checks, and the host runs its code in a sandbox that never sees the credential.
io.w6w.oktaOkta manages the identity lifecycle for an org — users and the groups they belong to — against Okta’s own management API for either a production org or a sandbox. Users can be listed by name, email prefix or a SCIM-style filter, created, partially updated, deactivated and reactivated, and a user’s full set of assigned apps — direct or via group membership — can be read back.
Deactivation unwinds every app assignment and group membership for a user and cannot be undone; reactivation is not its inverse, it restarts activation for a user stuck mid-provisioning. Groups can be listed, read, and have members added or removed, for Okta-native groups — membership managed by an app import or a built-in group isn’t something this app changes.
Every request targets the org’s own domain, collected once when the connection is created, since an Okta org is its own host and every action needs to know which one it’s talking to.
Three routes to the same 11 actions. The Workflow tab is generated from Okta's own manifest and carries its real ids, so it is copy-pasteable; the Code and CLI examples are the same call for any action on any app, so every app-specific value in them is a blank you fill in.
group-remove-user Remove a user from an Okta-native group. Not valid for app-imported or built-in groups.
user-deactivate Deactivate a user. Unwinds all app assignments and group memberships. Cannot be undone.
user-list List users in the org, optionally filtered by name/email or a SCIM-style filter.
user-list-apps List every app assigned to a user, directly or through group membership.
user-reactivate Restart activation for a user stuck in PROVISIONED or RECOVERY status. Not the inverse of Deactivate.
A workflow step names the app and the action, and the editor fills in the
connection when you pick one. This is the Step shape from the
workflow spec, carrying Okta's real ids.

Every app-specific value here is a blank you have to fill in. An
app action is reached through the connection that authenticates it, so the
address is a connection id, not the app id — and connections belong to your account,
so a public page cannot know yours. Create one for Okta, then fill in
the three blanks: conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID, the action key, and the
parameters that action declares. The call itself is real — the shape is transcribed
from the studio's own snippet builder, which prints the same kind of blanks — but
nothing in it is specific to Okta. The Workflow tab is where this app's
real ids are.

One MCP endpoint exposes every app, function and workflow the caller is entitled to, as tools it can discover and run. Access is granted per team while we onboard.
One tool call{
"name": "w6w_invoke",
"arguments": {
"ref": "app:io.w6w.okta#group-add-user",
"input": {
"groupId": "<groupId>",
"userId": "<userId>"
}
}
}
Every tool names its target with a single ref. The
app: form above doesn't name a connection at all — the
host resolves which of the caller's Okta connections to sign
with, and refuses rather than guesses when the answer is ambiguous.
The token is attached host-side, at the moment of the call. It is never a tool argument, never in the model's context, and never in a transcript — so a prompt injection has nothing to exfiltrate.
Tools are derived per end user from what that person has actually connected and is entitled to — not one shared bot identity carrying the union of everyone's access.
Multi-step work runs on the workflow engine and returns a run handle the agent can poll — retries, branching and state survive the conversation that started them.
Okta's declared health checks are on the surface too, so an agent can tell "the vendor is down" from "your credential expired" before it burns a retry on either.
The MCP surface is part of the hosted platform. Okta itself is MIT, and the runtime that executes it is source-available (FSL).
Okta declares its own checks, so its health is a property of the app rather than something the host guesses at.
Headroom remaining on this call's rate-limit bucket, read off the `x-rate-limit-*` headers. Okta layers a per-endpoint cap on top of the org-wide one.
