Getting Started

To install this example application, run the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/oktadeveloper/okta-angular-node-example.git
cd okta-angular-node-example

This will get a copy of the project installed locally. To install all of its dependencies and start each app, follow the instructions below.

To run the server, cd into the ProductsServer directory and run:

npm i
npm run build
npm start

To run the client, cd into the MyAngularClient directory and run:

npm install 
ng serve

Create a New OIDC App in Okta

Before you begin, you’ll need a free Okta developer account. Install the Okta CLI and run okta register to sign up for a new account. If you already have an account, run okta login.

Then, run okta apps create. Select the default app name, or change it as you see fit. Choose Single-Page App and press Enter.

Use http://localhost:4200/callback for the Redirect URI and accept the default Logout Redirect URI of http://localhost:4200.

Server Configuration

Set your domain and copy the clientId into ProductsServer/src/auth.ts.

NOTE: The value of {yourOktaDomain} should be something like dev-123456.okta.com. Make sure you don't include -admin in the value!

const oktaJwtVerifier = new OktaJwtVerifier({
  clientId: '{clientId}',
  issuer: 'https://{yourOktaDomain}/oauth2/default'
});

Client Configuration

For the client, set the issuer and copy the clientId into MyAngularClient/src/app/app.module.ts.

const oktaConfig = {
  issuer: 'https://{yourOktaDomain}/oauth2/default',
  clientId: '{clientId}',
  redirectUri: window.location.origin + '/callback'
};
