Preparing to use a PingAM journey

To use a PingAM journey, you must install PingAM and perform the additional configuration steps described in this document.

Before you begin

Complete the steps in the PingAM installation guide.

About this task

In the PingAM administrative console:

Steps

  1. If you do not have an alpha realm in your environment yet:

    1. Go to Realms and click New Realm.

    2. In the Name field, enter alpha.

    3. Click Use Client-Side Sessions.

    4. Click Create to save your configuration.

      You should have an alpha realm because it’s best practice to reserve the root realm for administrative operations. Learn more about configuring a realm in create a new realm.

  2. Configure client-side sessions by completing the steps in the configure client-side sessions procedure.

  3. Enable goto and redirects for the validation service.

    By default, PingAM denies all goto and redirects after the sign on flow is complete.

    1. In the alpha realm, go to Services.

    2. If the Validation Service is not in the list of services, click Add a Service and in the Choose a service type list, select Validation Service.

    3. In the Valid goto URL Resources field, enter one or more valid URL patterns to allow.

      Example:

      • https://<my_ping_federate_url>:*/*

      • https://<my_ping_federate_url>:*/*?*

  4. Configure push authentication journeys by completing the steps in the push authentication journeys guide.

  5. Optional: To adjust authentication session lifetimes:

    1. In the alpha realm, go to Services, click Session, then click Create.

    2. On the Dynamic Attributes tab, enter the desired values in the Maximum Session Time and Maximum Idle Time fields.

    3. Click Save Changes.
