Integrate Mac login with Identity Center

Question

I noticed that OKTA has a platform-SSO option for Mac OS.  Does AWS have something similar?

Ideally I want to configure the Mac so the user would log into Identity Center; define the normal AWS role or an optional secure role with MFA authorization and then open the Mac.

I created an Identity Center user with permissions.  Using the CLI **configire sso** the SDK works as expected but how do I get the AWS STS system linked to my Mac logon?

My apologies if this isn't making sense.  I fully expect that I am not thinking about this correctly.

Hi,

The list of valid identity sources for IAM Identity Center is detailled here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/singlesignon/latest/userguide/tutorials.html

MacOS identity system is not in the list but Okta is. So, you may achieve what you need via Okta that you would then connect to IIC.

Best,

Didier
