   |   | When you save the application, PingAccess verifies that the redirect Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) *(tooltip: \<div class="paragraph">&#xA;\<p>Identifies a web resource with a string of characters conforming to a specified format.\</p>&#xA;\</div>)* for the application's virtual host is configured in PingFederate. If PingAccess determines that the redirect URI is not defined, you will see the following warning:```
   Save succeeded. Unable to find a matching Redirect URI in the PingFederate OAuth Client configuration for <VHost>/pa/oidc/cb
   ```If you see this warning, ensure that there is a redirect URI that matches your configuration. If you have a wildcard in your virtual host configuration, ensure the redirect URI list includes the same wildcard host definition, otherwise you might have a configuration that is only valid in some circumstances.This validation is performed if the **Application Type** is `Web` or `Web + API`, a **Web Session** is selected, and the PingFederate Administration connection is configured. |
