How-To Recover your Okta Account when the Okta Activation Link has Expired

If you have received an Okta activation email, but you have not activated your account in the 7 days before the link expires or have clicked your link and navigated away, you will need to send a request to Okta support to receive a new activation link.

 

  1. Click the expired activation link, and you will see the Token Expired page shown below.
  2. Click the Request a new token button.

  3. After clicking Request a new token, a popup dialog box will be displayed. 

Enter the email that is being used to create the Okta account, and select an option from the drop-down menu.

In the Message text box, enter a message stating that your activation link has expired and that you are requesting a new one.

  1. Click the Send Message button to send the request, and you will receive a new activation link in your email shortly.
