Event Hooks

Receives real-time event data from Okta via webhooks for immediate security monitoring and incident response.

Sync Type: Push (Webhook)

Overview​

This input receives events directly from Okta via their Event Hooks feature, providing real-time data ingestion instead of polling the Okta API. Events are pushed to Monad as they occur in your Okta tenant.

Prerequisites​

Setup​

Step 1: Create the Input in Monad​

  1. Create an Okta Event Hooks input and add it to a pipeline.
  2. Copy the Pipeline ID from the pipeline details page.

Step 2: Configure the Event Hook in Okta​

  1. Log into your Okta Admin Console.
  2. Navigate to Workflow > Event Hooks.
  3. Click Create Event Hook.
  4. Fill in the following details:
  • Name: Enter a name for the event hook (e.g., "Monad Event Hook")
  • URL: https://app.monad.com/api/v2/http/send/{pipeline_id} (replace {pipeline_id} with your Pipeline ID)
  • Authentication field: Authorization
  • Authentication secret: ApiKey {api-key} (replace {api-key} with your Monad API key)
  • Custom header fields: Leave blank (additional headers will be ignored)
  • Subscribe to events: Select the events you want to send to Monad
  1. Click Save & Continue.
  2. Click Verify to confirm the connection is working.

Important Notes​

  • Okta event hooks are sent in batches with multiple events at the JSON path data.events. Monad processes each event in the batch individually.
