# Setting up PingOne Authorize for Amazon Web Services integration

To allow Amazon Web Services (AWS) to use PingOne Authorize as an external runtime authorization policy service, set up an API gateway in PingOne that represents AWS. This will prepare PingOne Authorize to authenticate authorization requests from AWS.

## Before you begin

Add PingOne Authorize to your PingOne environment. Learn more in [Adding the PingOne Authorize service to your environment](p1az_adding_p1az_service_to_your_environment.html).

## Steps

1. In PingOne, go to **Authorization > API Gateways**.

2. Copy the **Service URL** and save it somewhere convenient for later use.

3. To add a gateway, click the **[icon: plus, set=fa]**icon next to **API Gateways**.

4. Enter a name for the gateway, such as `Amazon`. Click **Save**.
