# Using PingGateway no-code application and API protection

PingGateway connects to PingOne as a single sign-on (SSO) provider. This integrates web applications, APIs, and microservices with PingOne without modifying the applications or the containers where they run.

PingGateway runs as reverse proxy gateway calling on PingOne for authentication and authorization. In deploying PingGateway, you protect APIs and applications as they are without changing them.

The PingGateway declarative configuration model gives you the flexibility to serve many use cases without the need to write or change code.
