Aerial Org Groups and Request Condition Template APIs

Previously, access request conditions for managed orgs could only be applied to all managed orgs using a template app or a single org from within its Aerial org's Admin Console. Now, you can create org groups and apply access request conditions to one or more managed orgs all from within the Aerial Console. To support this new flexible grouping and governance experience, Okta introduces a new suite of APIs that allow developers to programmatically manage Org Groups and apply access request conditions across multiple orgs at scale. These APIs help you define precise rules for access, streamlining governance and improving usability.

See the Org Groups (opens new window) and Governance (opens new window) APIs. For more information on managing Org Groups in the Aerial Console, see Create org groups (opens new window).

Aerial member role available in EA

Previously, all users were invited as Aerial Owners with super admin privileges. Now, they can be invited as Aerial members, providing lower-scope permissions. This enhances security by distinguishing true owners from members who need access for specific tasks, ensuring tighter control over Aerial workflows.

See Aerial members (opens new window).
