# Develop a XAA-Enabled Resource Application and Test with Okta

**[Okta Dev](https://daily.dev/sources/okta)** · 8 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Cross App Access (XAA) enables enterprise resource applications to become AI-ready by delegating access management to an Identity Provider. Resource apps validate ID-JAG tokens from AI agents by verifying the IdP's signature, checking the audience claim matches their identifier, and confirming the user identity. This tutorial walks through enabling XAA in Okta, registering both a sample requesting app (Agent0) and resource app (TaskFlow), establishing trust connections between them, and testing the complete token exchange flow including ID-JAG verification and OAuth client registration.
