Set up the first mobile app

In this section, you configure settings for the first mobile app.

Note: This section assumes that you have already downloaded the appropriate sample apps from GitHub.

Use the sample iOS app that you cloned from GitHub to test how multiple apps can share a browser session with iOS.

Install the dependencies

To install the Okta Browser Sign-in sample app dependencies into your project, this guide uses CocoaPods.

Enter the following at the command line inside the sample app:

pod install

Note: Be sure to work within the Okta BrowserSignIn Workspace in Xcode after you do pod install.

Modify the configuration file

Make the following modifications in the OktaBrowserSignIn/Okta.plist file of your sample app:

• redirectUri: Enter com.first.sample:/callback as the value, which is what you defined as the Login Redirect URI in the Native app that you created in the last step.

• clientId: Enter the Client ID that you copied during the last step.

• issuer: This is the URL for the authorization server that performs authentication. It's a combination of your Org URL that appears in the upper-right corner of your Okta Org dashboard and /oauth2/default.

  For example: https//{yourOrgURL}/oauth2/default

• logoutRedirectUri: Enter com.first.sample:/logout as the value, which is what you defined as the Logout Redirect URI in the Native app that you created in the last step.

Add the redirect scheme

To redirect back to your application from a web browser, specify a unique URI to your app.

To add a redirect scheme for iOS, open Info.plist in your application bundle and set a URL Scheme to the scheme of the redirect URI.

For example, if your redirect URI is com.first.sample:/callback, the URL Scheme is com.first.sample.

Note: When you finish, you can build and run the app.
