Part of the Okta-M365 Integration guide
Adding the Okta M365 app initiates the integration process, but there are several important procedures you must complete before going live. For this reason, this procedure instructs you to hide the M365 app from end users temporarily. After the integration is correctly configured and federated, you can make the app visible.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN
As part of the Okta-M365 Integration guide, this procedure assumes you have already set the ImmutableID for all cloud-only M365 users and set up a private browser session.
Steps
In the Okta Admin Console, click Applications > Applications.
Click Browse App Catalog.
Click the Office 365 tile, then click Add Integration.
In the Microsoft Tenant Name field, type the name of the M365 tenant.
In the Display the following links area, clear all individual Microsoft product checkboxes and leave only Office Portal selected. This prevents a cluttered end-user dashboard and streamlines the user experience.
For Application Visibility, select Do not display application icon to users. This is important — you do not want users attempting to access M365 apps from their Okta dashboard until after federation is complete.
Clear the checkbox for Automatically log in when user lands on login page, then click Next.
Leave all default settings and click Done.
NEXT STEPS
Continue to Enable the Okta API integration with M365.
