# IdP installation and setup

## About this task

This section describes how to install and configure the PingFederate Integration Kit for SAP NetWeaver for an IdP.

## Steps

1. Download the NetWeaver Integration Kit `.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/netweaver-integration-kit).

2. Shut down the PingFederate server.

3. Unzip the distribution `.zip` archive.

4. Copy the `pf-netweaver-adapter-1.0.jar` file from the `dist` directory to this location:

   `[PingFederate installation directory]/server/default/deploy`

5. Obtain the SSO extension library from SAP and install the libraries on the system running PingFederate (see [System requirements](../pf_sap_netweaver_ik.html#_system_requirements)).

6. Restart the PingFederate server.

7. Log on to the PingFederate administrative console and click **Adapters** from the My IdP Configuration side of the Main Menu.

   For more information, see [Configuring an IdP adapter instance](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingfederate/latest/administrators_reference_guide/pf_configuring_idp_adapter_instance.html) in the PingFederate documentation.

8. Click **Create New Adapter Instance**.

9. Enter the **Instance Name** and **Instance ID**. Select **PF4 NetWeaver IdP Adapter v1.0** as the **Type** and click **Next**.

10. Enter the values for adapter configuration described below and click **Next**.
