# Adding an existing PingID tenant to a new PingOne environment

If you have a separate PingID tenant, you can easily integrate it with your PingOne environment.

## Before you begin

This task describes the steps required to add an existing PingID tenant to a PingOne environment. In order to add an existing PingID tenant, the following conditions must be met:

* You must have a full PingOne license. This option isn't available with a trial license.

* If your PingID tenant hasn't been migrated to PingOne, and the PingID Global Administrator email is linked to multiple accounts, you must create a new Global Administrator account so PingOne can identify the correct tenant. The new Global Administrator account needs:

  * A unique email address.

  * A Global Administrator role with full privileges that isn't read-only or SSO only. To learn how to set up this role, see [Assign administrative roles](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingoneforenterprise/pingone_sso_for_saas_apps/p14saas_assign_administrators.html).

* Your PingID license must support a connection to PingOne.
