Is it possible to integrate Okta as an IDP (Identity Provider) for an application in Azure, where Azure would be the Service Provider?

Presently the authentication is managed by Azure AD, we have AD users that have been granted access to these applications hosted in Azure, and Use ADAL for logging in users, and obtaining tokens for securing API calls to the Backend APIs.

Can Okta be added as an IDP and added to the AAD, through SAML or WS-Federation?

Yes, OKTA is listed as one of the third-party IDPs in the Azure AD federation compatibility list which can support federation with Azure Active Directory (AAD).

The supported scenario matrix is listed here.

Hope this clarifies your doubt.
