Okta is degraded. Is your product working?
An incident on their side does not always mean an outage on yours, and the only way to know is to already be watching your own endpoints. Set that up in under a minute and you will be notified the next time your own site is affected. And there will be a next time.

Affected components: Workflows
What happened?
Okta logged one incident on this day, titled "Service Disruption in Workflows", starting at 14:23 UTC and lasting 9h 39m. Workflows was the only component listed as affected. Okta's status page carries no updates at all for this incident, zero in total, so there is no record of what went wrong, what was tried, or when a fix landed. The page gives you a start time and an end time and nothing in between. No user reports were filed during the window, so there is no outside account of what the disruption looked like in practice for anyone building automations on Workflows. Over the past 90 days Okta has logged 9 incidents with a median duration of 1 hour 53 minutes, which puts this one well past typical. Across all time Okta averages 2.3 incidents a month on their status page, so a single outage on its own is not unusual for them, but the length and the total absence of updates are. A single filing from a vendor, with no running commentary, is a thin record to build confidence on, and that is all this incident leaves behind.
Learning
If you build processes or provisioning flows on Okta Workflows, this incident sat entirely on Okta's side, inside a specific component rather than the whole platform, which is why a broad check of Okta's login page or API could easily have stayed green while Workflows itself was down for almost ten hours. UptimeRobot's own 30 day figures for Okta show 4 incidents, all resolved, with a median duration of 6h 48m, which tells you that long, quiet outages like this one are a pattern here, not a one off. The shape of this kind of failure is narrow and deep: one component breaks and stays broken for hours while the rest of the platform reports fine, so a health check pointed at the wrong endpoint tells you nothing useful. Watching your own integration only shows you that your calls are failing, not why, and Okta's own status page gave no updates to fill that gap either. Your monitoring covers your half, UptimeRobot now watches the provider's half too, so next time you know which side broke without guessing.
