Problem

Employees needed to know which internal system handled their question before they could ask for help. Support requests crossed IT and people operations, including travel and expenses.

Approach

Okta built Dex on its internal Okta One agent platform as a shared entry point for employee support. Dex coordinated support across systems. Okta registered agents in its identity directory and checked access against the permissions of the employee using them.

Results

Takeaway

A shared support entry point reduced the need for employees to understand the underlying systems. Adoption and interaction counts did not establish how many requests Dex resolved.
