# SSO to the PingOne for Enterprise admin portal from PingFederate

If you use PingFederate as your identity bridge, there are a couple of ways you can configure single sign-on (SSO) directly to the PingOne for Enterprise admin portal from PingFederate.

## Steps

1. Use one of the following methods to SSO to the PingOne for Enterprise admin portal:

   ### Choose from:

   * For all PingFederate versions:

     1. Log in to PingFederate and go to **IdP Configuration > SP Connections - PingOne**.

     2. Copy the **SSO Application Endpoint** entry to a text file and add this specific `TargetResource` value to the /idp/startSSO.ping endpoint:

        ```
        https://pingone.com/1.0/8bfe0aeb-79ca-4fd4-a116-c3f7c7dbe6ca
        ```

        Entering the resulting URL in a browser displays the credentials prompt for SSO to the PingOne for Enterprise admin portal. For example:

        ```
        /idp/startSSO.ping?PartnerSpId=http://pingone.com/yourAccount&TargetResource=https://pingone.com/1.0/8bfe0aeb-79ca-4fd4-a116-c3f7c7dbe6ca
        ```

        Learn more about the start SSO endpoint in [/idp/startSSO.ping](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingfederate/latest/developers_reference_guide/pf_idp_endpoints.html) in the PingFederate documentation.

   * PingFederate 8.0 or later

     1. Go to **Server Configuration > Server Settings > PingOne Settings**.

     2. Click **Launch PingOne Admin Portal**.

        PingFederate uses the credentials you used to log in to PingFederate for SSO to the PingOne for Enterprise admin portal.

## Next steps

After you've configured SSO to the PingOne for Enterprise admin portal from PingFederate, you also can choose to apply a secondary level of authentication using PingID. See [Create or update an authentication policy](p14e_create_update_authentication_policy.html) for more information.
