No downtime Partial Downtime Not measurable No data

Measured by FlareWarden's own checks of okta.com from multiple regions every 2 hours. Okta's status page sets the verdict above when it reports trouble, but never these figures. Percentages count only checks that returned an availability answer — 90 days measured so far. A dash means that window does not yet hold enough measured days to publish a figure.

What Okta does

Okta is an identity provider handling single sign-on and multi-factor authentication for workforce and customer applications. When an organisation routes login for its whole application estate through Okta, an outage is not one application failing but every application refusing new sessions at the same moment.

What an outage looks like

When Okta is down, users cannot sign in to anything behind it: the login page fails to load or hangs after credentials are entered, and multi-factor prompts may never arrive. People holding a valid session usually keep working until it expires, so the impact spreads gradually through the day rather than hitting everyone at once.

What to do about it

Check status.okta.com and identify your cell, because availability is reported per cell rather than globally. Tell people not to sign out: existing sessions normally survive the incident and signing out cannot be undone. Break-glass administrator accounts that bypass the identity provider exist for this situation, and this is when they are used.

Is it down for everyone, or just you?

If this page says Okta is up but it is not loading for you, the problem is between you and them. Run a check against any URL from up to 17 cities across three regions to find out where it breaks.

Okta outage FAQ

Will I be logged out of everything if Okta goes down?
Usually not immediately. Applications generally accept an existing session until it expires, so people already signed in keep working. What fails is anything requiring a fresh authentication: new logins, new devices, and sessions that happen to time out during the incident. That is why signing out mid-outage is worth avoiding.
How do administrators get in during an Okta outage?
Through a break-glass account that authenticates locally rather than through the identity provider. Most organisations create these precisely so an identity outage does not lock everyone out of their own systems. If yours has not, an Okta incident is a bad time to discover it, and worth adding to the post-incident list.
Is Okta down or is my application misconfigured?
status.okta.com reports per cell, and your cell is identifiable from your Okta org URL. If your cell is healthy and only one application fails, the problem is more likely that application's integration than Okta itself. Check whether other applications behind the same identity provider are still accepting new logins.
Does an Okta outage affect Auth0?
Auth0 is operated as a separate platform with its own status page, so an Okta workforce incident does not automatically mean Auth0 is affected. Organisations using both should check each independently rather than assuming one status covers the other.

How we measure this

  • We request Okta's public endpoint every 2 hours from Fly.io regions across six continents — the most recent check ran from 12 of them. When you open this page and our last check is more than 30 minutes old, we check again on the spot; those checks update the verdict, never the availability figures.
  • A region counts as down only when it gets no usable HTTP response. A 403 or 429 means the origin answered and refused us, which we report as blocked, never as an outage.
  • A single failing region is treated as probe noise. Our checks only change their verdict when two consecutive cycles agree.
  • Response times average only the regions that actually served the page, so a timeout never inflates the number.
  • Where Okta publishes an official status feed we read it too, and the verdict is the worse of what it reports and what our checks see: a major outage of Okta itself is Down, trouble with one part of it is Degraded, problems at a few of a provider's many locations change nothing, and a security notice that marks nothing down is shown but changes nothing either. A reading counts for 45 minutes; we read the feed again within minutes of any change to its incidents. The availability figures above are our measurement alone.

Get alerted when Okta goes down

We check Okta every 2 hours, and again when you open this page if that was more than 30 minutes ago. Your own monitors run as often as every 30 seconds, from up to 17 cities across three regions, and tell you the moment something breaks.
