# Setting the Attribute Authority Service URL

The attribute authority service URL corresponds to the endpoint location where your identity provider (IdP) provider receives attribute query requests.

## About this task

Attribute authority is the term used to refer to an IdP that provides user attributes to an attribute requester or your service provider (SP) site. For more information, see [Attribute Query and XASP](../introduction_to_pingfederate/pf_attrib_query_xasp.html).

## Steps

* Enter the fully qualified URL or a relative path if you have defined a base URL on the **General Info** tab. For more information, see [Identifying the partner](help_idpconnectionconfigtasklet_generalinfostate.html).
