Detection methodology for Authentication

Auth providers expose a script SDK and (usually) a hosted login endpoint. Auth0's `@auth0/auth0-spa-js` plus `*.auth0.com` redirects; Clerk's `@clerk/clerk-js` plus `clerk.<account>.lcl.dev`; NextAuth's `next-auth` package plus the `/api/auth/...` route handler. We catch each via the bundle and the network requests, plus the exact SDK version from the sourcemap.

How we detect Okta

Each signal alone is rarely conclusive — Sourcemap Explorer cross-references all of them and weights by confidence. You can reproduce any of these checks yourself in Chrome DevTools.

JavaScript global

Window-level global the technology installs on page. Reproducible by typing the path into the DevTools console.

window.OktaAuth
window.isOktaEnabled
window.okta.cdnUrlHostname
window.okta.locale
window.oktaCurrentSessionUrl
Script src URL

Script URL pattern. Typically a CDN host or chunk path that ships with the technology.

oktacdn\.com/.+/([\d.]+)/

FAQ

How do I check if a website is using Okta?

Open the page in Chrome, click the Sourcemap Explorer toolbar icon, and read the Stack tab. The popup matches Okta's fingerprint signals (response headers, asset URL prefixes, runtime globals, sourcemap paths) and flags it whenever any combination is found. The same checks can be reproduced manually in DevTools — see the "How we detect" section above.

What Okta version can Sourcemap Explorer detect?

Okta ships as a hosted authentication rather than a bundled npm package, so version-specific detection isn't always possible. Where the platform leaks a version in response headers (`X-Powered-By`, `Server`, generator meta tags) we surface it; otherwise we report presence only.

How much does Okta cost?

Okta's pricing model is documented as: poa, freemium, recurring. Detection is independent of the pricing tier — Sourcemap Explorer flags the technology by its fingerprints, regardless of which paid plan a site is on. See the official site for the current pricing page.
