Downloading metadata for SAML IdPs

SAML metadata contains configuration details, including profile and binding support, connection endpoints, and certificate information, for single sign-on (SSO). You can use the service provider (SP) metadata to provide configuration information to your organization’s external identity provider (IdP) team.

You can provide SP metadata to the external IdP team when configuring the connection on the IdP side.

When connecting PingOne with a SAML application, you can also provide the application team with PingOne IdP metadata. Learn more in IdP metadata for SAML applications.

Steps

  1. In the PingOne admin console, go to Integrations > External IdPs and browse or search for the IdP for which you want to download metadata.

  2. Click the IdP to open the details panel and click the Connection tab.

  3. If your PingOne environment is:

    • Configured with a custom domain:

      1. Click Download PingOne Metadata.

        The service URLs in the metadata XML file start with your custom domain.

      2. If you prefer the application to send requests to the PingOne domain instead:

        1. Click Download PingOne Metadata for Original Domain.
