# Configuring a Syniverse account for PingOne

Use the information in this section to configure PingOne to use your Syniverse account.

## Before you begin

Ensure that you have your Syniverse account Access Token. You can copy it as required from the Syniverse dashboard. You should also have set up one or more origination phone numbers.

## About this task

|   |                                                                                                           |

|   | By enabling your Syniverse account, you are taking responsibility for dispatching SMS and voice messages. |

## Steps

1. Go to **Settings > Senders**.

2. Click **+**, enter the following options, and then click **Next**:

   1. In the **Sender Type** list, select **SMS/Voice**.

   2. In the **Provider Type** list, select **Syniverse**.

3. To include Syniverse notification events in the PingOne audit logs:

   |   |                                                                                 |
   | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
   |   | A Syniverse account applies across all PingOne applications of the environment. |

   1. Copy the URL from the **Address** field.

   2. In your Syniverse account:

      1. In the **Delivery Configuration**, paste the URL that you copied from the PingOne **Address** field.

      2. Create 2 subscriptions: **SCG-Message** and **SCG-Voice-Calls**.

      See the Syniverse article [How to setup a Webhook for Receiving Messages and Notifications](https://sdcsupport.syniverse.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001528033-How-to-setup-a-Webhook-for-Receiving-Messages-and-Notifications) for more information.

   |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           |
   | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
   |   | These Syniverse configurations are required in order that Ping Identity's dashboards and reports will reflect complete and accurate data. Ping Identity will not be able to troubleshoot SMS or voice events related to Syniverse if these configurations are incomplete. |

4. Copy/paste your Syniverse Access Token to the **Access Token** field.

   |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  |
   | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
   |   | The system uses your access token to connect to your Syniverse account.Recommended: In your account in the Syniverse portal, define an application that is dedicated to PingOne traffic. Use this application for analyzing PingOne traffic throughput, and troubleshooting SMS or voice message despatch cases. |

5. Click the **Verify Account** button. That validates the account to PingOne and populates the Origination Numbers list from your Syniverse account.

   |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |
   | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
   |   | * If the **Access Token** is incorrect, an `Invalid account information` error message will display.

   * If your Syniverse account is not fully configured a yellow exclamation mark appears next to the **Access Token** field. If you click on it, the `Syniverse Not Configured` warning message appears.

   * If there are no originating phone numbers in the Syniverse account, it will not be validated to PingOne. |

   If the account was successfully verified, the display will change to show a list of originating numbers from Syniverse.

6. In the **Syniverse Setup - Select Numbers** popup:

   1. Select at least one origination number to use.

      * Select the origination numbers to be used.

      * Click the **Show only selected**/**Show all** toggle to display only the marked phone numbers and hide the numbers that are not selected, or to display selected and unselected numbers.

      * Click **Select all** to select and mark all the origination numbers for this Twilio account.

      * Click **Unselect all** to deselect and unmark all the origination numbers for this Twilio account.

        | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
        |   | * If you intend to use both SMS and voice, all your selected numbers must support both SMS and voice.

        * Syniverse allows the use of sender IDs (in place of telephone numbers) for commercial use or to comply with regulations requiring SMSs to be sent as **transactional** and not **promotional**.

        * Sender IDs are displayed according to the Sender IDs sent in the API requests. |

   2. Select **Done** to continue with the configuration, or **Cancel**.

      ### Result:

      The **Origination Numbers** table displays.

   3. For **Toll-free** and **Short code** numbers, you can configure supported **Countries** for notification recipients:

      * Click in the **Countries** field. The **Configure countries** popup opens.

      * Click in the **Select countries** field to display the list of countries. Select a country from the list.

        |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      |
        | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
        |   | * **Toll-free**: You can add multiple countries in the **Select countries** list. If no country is specified, the specified toll-free number can only be used to dispatch notifications to United States recipient numbers.

        * **Short code**: You can select only one country in the **Select countries** list. If no country is specified, the specified short code can only be used to dispatch notifications to United States recipient numbers. |

7. In **Fallback to Default Account**, select **Twilio** to use your Twilio account as a fallback if Syniverse becomes unavailable for reasons explained in the following note.

   |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     |
   | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
   |   | **Under fallback:**If PingOne receives an error during the message dispatch process that the used number is invalid, it retries using another configured Syniverse number. After attempting to dispatch the message and receiving an error for all configured numbers, the fallback flow is triggered.- If there was no way of originating the SMS or voice event with the tenant's own Syniverse account and you defined a fallback, the event will be originated from the configured fallback account.

   - The following errors will cause fallback:

     * All API errors (but not SMS delivery errors).

     * No origination number was found on the Syniverse account.

   - If a transaction was charged to a specific account, it does not imply that subsequent transactions will be charged to the same account. The account charged for each transaction is determined on an individual basis. Preference is always given to the custom account. |

   * **Twilio**:

     Enter the **Twilio Account SID**, **Auth Token** and select at least one **Origination Number**:

     1. Copy/paste the Twilio account SID to the indicated field.

        |   |                                                                      |
        | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
        |   | If the SID is shorter than 34 characters, an error message displays. |

     2. Copy/paste the Twilio **Auth Token** to the indicated field.

     3. Click the **Verify Account** button. That validates the account to PingOne and populates the **Origination Numbers** list from your Twilio account.

        |   |                                                                                                                                                                           |
        | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
        |   | * If the **Auth Token** is incorrect, an error message displays.

        * If there are no originating phone numbers in the Twilio account, it will not be validated to PingOne. |

        If the account is successfully verified, the display changes to show a list of originating numbers from Twilio.

     4. Select at least one originating telephone number to use.

8. Click **Save**.

9. To complete the setup process, click **I Agree** on the **Third-party Service Consent** popup to confirm your legal consent.

   |   |                                                                                |
   | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
   |   | You will only be asked for legal consent when entering a new **Access Token**. |
