# Reviewing an IdP connection

When you finish creating or modifying a connection, you can review the connection settings and toggle the connection status on the **Activation & Summary** tab.

## About this task

|   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             |

|   | When creating a new connection, the default connection status is **Enabled** when you reach the **Activation & Summary** tab.Regardless of whether you choose to disable a new connection now or later, you must click **Save** on the **Activation & Summary** tab if you want to keep the new connection. |

## Steps

* To amend your configuration, click the corresponding tab title and then follow the steps to complete the task.

* To keep your changes, click **Save**.

* To discard your changes, click **Cancel**.

## Result

The **SSO Application Endpoint** provides a sample URL at the `/sp/startSSO.ping` application endpoint that webmasters or web application developers at your site might use to invoke single sign-on (SSO) for the connection. For a list of supported parameters, see [Viewing SP application endpoints](pf_viewing_sp_applicat_endpoints.html). If you selected the **No Mapping** option on the **Identity Mapping** tab, the **Summary & Activation** tab does not show the **SSO Application Endpoint** sample URL.

PingFederate also generates and displays a **Front-Channel Logout URI**. For more information, see "Front-Channel Logout URIs" in [Configuring OAuth clients](pf_configuring_oauth_clients.html).
