We need to host streamlit on internal linux server (not on cloud yet) and was looking for ways to integrate with Okta security (restrict to internal users based on global group etc).
There is some reference if streamlit app is hosted on cloud but we are not there yet.
any pointers or doc links would be highly appreciated. thanks
It can be done (as you mention, we show that with Streamlit Cloud), but that functionality is outside of the Streamlit Python package. Meaning, the workflow is something like:
User logins in to Okta
User clicks on server resource
If the permissions for the user allow it, Okta lets the user see the resource
So in that sense, however you set up Okta to do any server authentication process is how you would do it for Streamlit, but that’s a question for your Okta rep/admin to be able to answer.
Yes, this is what I was describing, but it’s important to note that I can’t be your source for actual security protocol. You definitely want to talk to Okta or your Okta admin about how this should be set up properly
