Which type of users are referred to as Directory-Mastered people in Okta?

Directory-Mastered users in Okta refer to users who are managed within the directory service, such as Microsoft Active Directory (AD) or LDAP. This means that their identities, attributes, and lifecycle events (like creation, updates, or deletions) are primarily controlled through the directory service rather than directly within Okta.

This management approach allows organizations to centralize their identity management within their existing directory systems while still leveraging Okta for authentication and single sign-on capabilities. This integration with a directory service ensures that user information is consistent and managed in a secure and organized manner, fitting into the broader identity management strategy commonly used in enterprise environments.
