# Authentication API Support

You can use the PingFederate authentication API to integrate the GitHub IdP Adapter into your application.

The PingFederate Authentication API provides access to the current state of the authentication flow as a user steps through the PingFederate authentication policy. You can find more information in [PingFederate authentication API](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingfederate/latest/developers_reference_guide/pf_authentication_api.html) in the PingFederate documentation.

To integrate the GitHub IdP Adapter into your authentication flow, configure your application based on the states, actions, and models available in the PingFederate Authentication API Explorer. Learn more in [Exploring the Authentication API](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingfederate/latest/developers_reference_guide/pf_exploring_authentication_api.html) in the PingFederate documentation.
