|   | Only Evernote Teams account admins are authorized to configure SSO. Learn more about Evernote SSO configuration in [Configure SSO for your Evernote Teams account](https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/209005217) in the Evernote documentation. |

## Steps

1. Sign on to your Evernote account as an administrative user for your organization.

2. Go to the [Evernote Business Admin Console](https://www.evernote.com/business/AccountSettings.action).

3. On the left sidebar, go to **Security > Single Sign-On**.

4. In the **SAML HTTP Request URL** field, enter the HTTPS endpoint of your IdP for SSO requests.

   For example, https\://*\<pf\_hostname>*:*\<pf\_port>*/idp/SSO.saml2

5. Open your PingFederate signing certificate file using a text editor.

6. Under **X.509 Certificate**, paste your PingFederate signing certificate used to verify SAML responses.

7. Enter a **Session Duration**. This is the number of hours the SSO token will remain valid before employees must re-authorize their token.

   The default value is 24 hours.

8. Click **Save & Enable**
