Network Zones

The Network Zones API provides operations to manage system default and custom zones in your Okta org. Network Zones are configurable boundaries that you can use to grant or restrict access to resources in your organization. They're used for two purposes:

POLICY: Network Zones used to guide policy decisions
BLOCKLIST: Network Zones used to deny access from certain IP addresses, locations, Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs), proxy types, or IP service categories before policy evaluation

Note: The Network Zone blocklist applies to all URLs for the org.

See Network zones in the Okta product documentation.

Your Okta org provides the following default system Network Zones that you can modify and use:

LegacyIpZone: The system default IP Network Zone
BlockedIpZone: The system default IP Blocklist Network Zone
DefaultEnhancedDynamicZone: The system default Enhanced Dynamic Network Zone

You can create and use the following custom Network Zones:

IP Network Zone (IP): Allows you to define network perimeters around a set of IPs
Dynamic Network Zone (DYNAMIC): Allows you to define network perimeters around location, IP type, or ASNs
Enhanced Dynamic Network Zone (DYNAMIC_V2): Extends the Dynamic Network Zone and allows you to include or exclude specific locations, ASNs, or IP service categories

Notes:

To create multiple Network Zones, you must have Adaptive MFA enabled in your Okta org.

Enhanced Dynamic Network Zones is a self-service Early Access (EA) feature. You must enable Enhanced Dynamic Network Zones in your Org settings to access this API. See Manage Early Access and Beta features.

List all network zones
OAuth 2.0: `okta.networkZones.read`

Lists all Network Zones with pagination. A subset of zones can be returned that match a supported filter expression or query.

This operation requires URL encoding. For example, filter=(id eq "nzoul0wf9jyb8xwZm0g3" or id eq "nzoul1MxmGN18NDQT0g3") is encoded as filter=%28id+eq+%22nzoul0wf9jyb8xwZm0g3%22+or+id+eq+%22nzoul1MxmGN18NDQT0g3%22%29.

Okta supports filtering on the id, usage, and system properties. See Filter for more information on the expressions that are used in filtering.

Request

query Parameters

after	string Specifies the pagination cursor for the next page of Network Zones Example: after=BlockedIpZones
limit	integer <int32> Default: -1 Specifies the number of results for a page Example: limit=5
filter	string Filters zones by usage, ID, or system expression Example: filter=id eq "nzowc1U5Jh5xuAK0o0g3"
