# Configuring a sign-on form

You can use forms created in **User Experience > Forms** to allow users to sign on with credentials, social login providers, or a magic link.

## Creating a sign-on form with username and password

To configure a simple sign-on form to allow users to authenticate with their credentials:

### Steps

1. In the PingOne admin console, go to **User Experience > Forms**.

2. Click the **[icon: plus, set=fa]**icon and select the **Sign On** template.

3. (Optional) Customize the templated form using the form builder. Learn more in [Form configuration](p1_form_configuration.html).

4. Click **Save**.

### Result

You can now use the form in your DaVinci flow with the [Form connector](https://docs.pingidentity.com/connectors/form_connector.html).

## Creating a sign-on form with social login

### Before you begin

In the PingOne admin console, go to **Integrations > External IdPs** and configure social login providers. Learn more in [Adding a vendor-specific identity provider in PingOne](../integrations/p1_adding_vendor_specific_idps.html).

| - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|   | If you don't have social login providers configured in your PingOne environment, the **Social Login** component won't be available in the form builder. |

### Steps

To configure a sign-on form with social login:

1. In the PingOne admin console, go to **User Experience > Forms**, click **[icon: plus, set=fa]**and select the **Sign On** template.

2. Add a **Divider** component and optionally add a centered label, such as `OR`, to the divider.

3. Add one or more **Social Login** components below the divider to allow the end user to authenticate with social login.

4. (Optional) You can further customize the templated form in the form builder. Learn more in [Form configuration](p1_form_configuration.html).

### Result

You can now use the form in your DaVinci flow with the [Form connector](https://docs.pingidentity.com/connectors/form_connector.html).

To configure a sign-on form with magic link:

### Steps

1. Create an email prompt form:

   1. In the PingOne admin console, go to **User Experience > Forms**.

   2. Click **[icon: plus, set=fa]**and select **Blank Form**.

   3. In the **Form Name** field, enter a title for the form, such as `Sign On`.

   4. (Optional) Enter a **Form Description**.

   5. In **Fields > PingOne Attribute Fields > Contact**, drag an **Email** field onto the form.

   6. In the **Form Toolbox**, drag a **Submit Button** component onto the form.

2. Create a magic link prompt form:

   1. In the PingOne admin console, go to **User Experience > Forms**.

   2. Create a form with the **Magic Link Prompt** template.

   3. (Optional) Customize the templated form using the form builder. Learn more in [Form configuration](p1_form_configuration.html).

3. Configure the DaVinci flow:

   1. Add a Challenge connector node in your flow and create an out-of-band challenge flow pattern. Learn more about creating challenges in [Challenge connector](https://docs.pingidentity.com/connectors/challenge_connector.html).

   2. Add a Form connector node and select the **Show Form** capability.

   3. Toggle **Enable Polling** on and set it up to poll the challenge created earlier in the flow by the Challenge connector.

   4. In the **Dynamic Text** table, map the user's email address or phone number with the `magicLinkHint` **Key**.
