Each region runs its own request from a different part of the world. A service can be up for one continent and down for another, which is usually the first sign of a routing or CDN problem.
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 all 18 regions to find out where it breaks.

How we measure this
- We request Okta's public endpoint every 2 hours from Fly.io regions across six continents — 12 of them answered the most recent check.
- A region counts as down only when it gets no usable HTTP response. A
403or429means the origin answered and refused us, which we report as blocked, never as an outage. - A single failing region is treated as probe noise. We only change the 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. An all-clear from the vendor can soften an unconfirmed degradation; a vendor-declared outage only worsens our verdict when our own checks corroborate it.
