# Deploy the provisioning connector

## About this task

This section describes the common steps required to install the PingFederate PingID SDK Connector.

## Steps

1. Download the PingID SDK Connector `.zip` archive from the [**Add-ons** tab of the PingFederate downloads page](https://www.pingidentity.com/en/resources/downloads/pingfederate.html) or the [Ping Identity Marketplace](https://marketplace.pingone.com/item/pingid-sdk-integration-kit).

1) Stop PingFederate.

2) Delete any existing PingID SDK Connector files in the PingFederate directory.

   1. Go to `<pf_install>/pingfederate/server/default/deploy`.

   2. Delete `pf-pingidsdk-quickconnection-<version>.jar`.

3) Deploy the provisioning connector.

   1. Extract the PingID SDK Connector distribution file, and then go to `dist`.

   2. Copy `pf-pingidsdk-quickconnection-<version>.jar` to `<pf_install>` `/pingfederate/server/default/deploy`.

4) Enable the PingFederate provisioning engine.

   1. In `<pf_install>/pingfederate/bin`, open `run.properties` for editing.

   2. Change `pf.provisioner.mode` to `STANDALONE`. Save the file.

      |   | To configure the `FAILOVER` mode instead, see [Deploying provisioning failover](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingfederate/latest/server_clustering_guide/pf_deploy_provis_failover.html) in the PingFederate *Server Clustering Guide*. |

5) Start PingFederate.

6) If you operate PingFederate in a cluster, repeat steps 1 - 5 for each instance of PingFederate.
