# Configuring SCIM 2.0 provisioning with Tableau and PingFederate

Learn how to enable Tableau SCIM 2.0 Provisioning in PingFederate.

## Before you begin

* Configure PingFederate to authenticate against an LDAP identity repository containing the users requiring application access.

* Configure PingFederate with the SCIM provisioning connector to support the SCIM 2.0 protocol.

* Configure PingFederate with the Tableau SP connection.

* Configure the PingFederate `run.properties` file to support provisioning.

## Enable SCIM provisioning in Tableau

1. Sign on to Tableau with an administration account.

2. Go to **Settings → Authentication**.

3. In the **Automatic Provisioning and Group Synchronisation (SCIM)** section, select the **Enable SCIM** check box.

4. Click **Generate New Secret**.

   This will generate a new API secret that PingFederate will use to authenticate to the Tableau SCIM endpoint.

1. In the PingFederate administrative console, select the Tableau SP connector.

2. On the **Connection Type** tab, select the **Outbound Provisioning** check box and in the **Type** list, select **SCIM Connector**.
