**NOTE: **Selecting **Server Logout** will not Sign you out of your Okta session. In fact, if you Login again by selecting **Server Login**, you will be brought back to the **Login Successful** page, and can enter Profile without having to re-enter any user details, by clicking the **Open Profile **button. See [How to Log into Profile Using Single Sign On via Okta for more detailed step-by-step information.](docId\:pmgyx2Vt_2XLcR96QYFke)
