Creating a web application
Now that we’ve added our environment, and created new users and a group, we’ll create a web application that uses a SAML connection.
Steps
-
Go to Applications → Applications.

In the Applications window, click the button.
-
In the Add Application panel, enter an Application Name, an optional Description.
Add an icon for your application so that it is easy to identify on the Application Portal.
-
Click SAML Application and then click Configure.
-
For SAML Configuration, select Manually Enter.
-
Enter the following:
-
ACS URLs:
https://decoder.pingidentity.cloud/saml
-
Entity ID:
pingidsamldecoder
-
-
Click Save.
-
At the top of the panel, click the toggle to enable the application.

We’ll now limit access to the application to the Sales group.

Under Groups, select the check box for the Sales group.

Click Save.
Assigning the Multi_Factor authentication policy to the application
We’ll now assign the Multi-factor authentication policy to your web application. The application should still be open for edit.

Go to Applications → Applications. Locate your application and click the application entry to open the details panel.
-
Click the Policies tab and then click the pencil icon.

Under PingOne Policies, select the check box for the Multi_Factor policy.

Click Save.
