# Okta client secret rotation

> Learn how to automatically rotate Okta Client Secrets.

> [!NOTE]
>
> **Rotation Type: Dual-Phase**
>
> This rotation maintains two active credential sets with overlapping validity, ensuring zero-downtime during rotation cycles.

## Prerequisites

* Create an [Okta Connection](https://infisical.com/docs/integrations/app-connections/okta.md).

## Create an Okta client secret rotation in Infisical

> [tab] Infisical UI
>
> 1. Navigate to your Secrets Management Project's Dashboard and select **Add Secret Rotation** from the actions dropdown.
>
>    ![Secrets Management Dashboard](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/infisical/images/secret-rotations-v2/generic/add-secret-rotation.png)
>
> 2. Select the **Okta Client Secret** option.
>
>    ![Select Okta Client Secret](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/infisical/images/secret-rotations-v2/okta-client-secret/select-okta.png)
>
> 3. Configure the rotation behavior, then click **Next**.
>
>    ![Rotation Configuration](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/infisical/images/secret-rotations-v2/okta-client-secret/configuration.png)
>
> * **Okta Connection** - the connection that will perform the rotation of the specified application's Client Secret.
>
> * **Rotation Interval** - the interval, in days, that once elapsed will trigger a rotation.
>
> * **Rotate At** - the local time of day when rotation should occur once the interval has elapsed.
>
> * **Auto-Rotation Enabled** - whether secrets should automatically be rotated once the rotation interval has elapsed. Disable this option to manually rotate secrets or pause secret rotation.
>
> 4. Select the Okta application whose Client Secret you want to rotate. Then click **Next**.
>
>    ![Rotation Parameters](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/infisical/images/secret-rotations-v2/okta-client-secret/parameters.png)
>
> 5. Specify the secret names that the client credentials should be mapped to. Then click **Next**.
>
>    ![Rotation Secrets Mapping](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/infisical/images/secret-rotations-v2/okta-client-secret/mappings.png)
>
> * **Client ID** - the name of the secret that the application Client ID will be mapped to.
>
> * **Client Secret** - the name of the secret that the rotated Client Secret will be mapped to.
>
> 6. Give your rotation a name and description (optional). Then click **Next**.
>
>    ![Rotation Details](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/infisical/images/secret-rotations-v2/okta-client-secret/details.png)
>
> * **Name** - the name of the secret rotation configuration. Must be slug-friendly.
>
> * **Description** (optional) - a description of this rotation configuration.
>
> 7. Review your configuration, then click **Create Secret Rotation**.
>
>    ![Rotation Review](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/infisical/images/secret-rotations-v2/okta-client-secret/review.png)
>
> 8. Your **Okta Client Secret** credentials are now available for use via the mapped secrets.
>
>    ![Rotation Created](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/infisical/images/secret-rotations-v2/okta-client-secret/created.png)

> [tab] API
>
> To create an Okta Client Secret Rotation, make an API request to the [Create Okta Client Secret Rotation](https://infisical.com/docs/api-reference/endpoints/secret-rotations/okta-client-secret/create.md) API endpoint.
>
> You will first need the **Client ID** of the Okta application you want to rotate the secret for. This can be obtained from the applications dashboard.
>
> ![Okta Client ID](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/infisical/images/secret-rotations-v2/okta-client-secret/client-id.png)
