|   | You can follow these steps to create a new SP connection, or you can modify your provisioning connection. |

## Steps

1. In the PingFederate administrator console, create a new SP connection:

   Choose from:

   * For PingFederate 10.1 or later, go to **Applications > Integration > SP Connections**. Click **Create Connection**.

   * For PingFederate 10.0 or earlier, go to **Identity Provider > SP Connections**. Click **Create Connection**.

2. Configure the basic connection details with the Zoom quick connection template:

   1. On the **Connection Template** tab, select **Use a template for this connection**.

   2. In the **Connection Template** list, select **Zoom Provisioner**.

   3. On the **Metadata File** row, select the `zoom-saml-metadata.xml` file you modified in [Getting a vanity URL for Zoom](pf_zoom_connector_getting_a_vanity_url_for_zoom.html). Click **Next**.

   4. On the **Connection Type** tab select **Browser SSO Profiles**. Click **Next**.

   5. On the **Connection Options** tab, select only **Browser SSO**. Click **Next**.

   6. If you see the **Metadata URL** tab, clear the **Enable automatic reloading** checkbox. Click **Next**.

   7. On the **General Info** tab, in the **Connection Name** field, enter a name for your connection. Click **Next**.

3. On the **Browser SSO** tab, configure browser SSO.

   You can find a complete guide in [Configure IdP Browser SSO](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingfederate/latest/administrators_reference_guide/help_spconnectionconfigtasklet_spbrowserssostate.html) in the PingFederate documentation.

   1. On **Browser SSO > SAML Profiles**, select all four checkboxes.

   2. On **Browser SSO > Protocol Settings > SLO Service URLs**, in the **Binding** list, select the method you chose for **Binding** in [Configuring single sign-on in Zoom](pf_zoom_connector_configuring_single_sign_on_in_zoom.html).

      1. In the **Endpoint URL** and **Response URL** fields, enter `/saml/SingleLogout`. Click **Add**.

   3. On **Browser SSO > Protocol Settings > Allowable SAML Bindings**, select the method that you chose for **Binding** in [Configuring single sign-on in Zoom](pf_zoom_connector_configuring_single_sign_on_in_zoom.html).

4. On the **Credentials** tab, configure the connection credentials. In the **Signing Algorithm** list, select **RSA SHA256**. Click **Next**.

   You can find a complete guide in [Configure credentials](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingfederate/latest/administrators_reference_guide/help_spconnectionconfigtasklet_credentialsstate.html) in the PingFederate documentation.

5. On the **Activation and Summary** tab, above the **Summary** section, turn on the connection. Click **Save**.
