# Create Password node (deprecated)

Lets users create a password when provisioning an account.

|   | This node and its related services are deprecated.Find information on the current methods for implementing social authentication in [PingGateway](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pinggateway/2026/gateway-guide/preface.html). |

Social identity providers do not provide a user's password. Use this node to provide a password to complete the user's credentials before provisioning an account.

|   | The flow must provision an account after prompting the user for a password, for example, by using the [Provision Dynamic Account node](provision-dynamic-account.html). If no account is provisioned, the flow does not save the password.Do not place any nodes that request additional input from the user between this node and the provisioning node; otherwise, the password is lost. |

## Example

The following example lets users who have performed social authentication using Google provide a password and provision an account when they don't have one. They must enter a one-time passcode to verify they are the owner of the Google account.
