Redirect sign in for Android (Kotlin)

Authenticate a user using the Redirect model in your Kotlin Android app using the Okta Android SDK.

The app launches a sign-in view hosted by Okta that handles the authorization using Authorization Code Flow + PKCE. Control is returned to the app once the user finishes the flow. An authorization code is returned to the app after a successful sign on. This code is then exchanged for ID and access tokens.

Using this project requires:

• Android Studio (Arctic Chipmunk 2021.2.1)
• The okta-mobile-kotlin SDK.

Guide

Follow the guide on developer.okta.com.

Prerequisites

Before running this sample, you will need the following:

• The Okta CLI Tool
• An Okta Developer Account (create one using okta register, or configure an existing one with okta login)
• Android Studio
• A virtual device emulator or a real device connected to work with Android Studio
• Java 11

Get the Code

Grab and configure this project using okta start android-kotlin.

You can also clone this project from GitHub and run okta start in it.

git clone https://github.com/okta-samples/okta-android-kotlin-sample.git
cd okta-android-kotlin-sample
okta start

Follow the instructions printed to the console.

Run the App

Run the app on emulator or hardware device from Android Studio (shift+F10 on Linux/Windows | Ctrl + R on macOS)

If you see a home page with a login button, then things are working! Clicking the Login button will redirect you to the Okta sign-in page.

You can sign in with the same account that you created when signing up for your developer org, or you can use a known username and password from your Okta Directory.
