After selecting a SAML template, you can apply the template to the application and then promote the application to the appropriate environment for testing.
Prepare to provide the following:
- Name of the application.
- A brief, accurate description of your application.
- Attribute mapping information, used to map your application attributes to the identity attributes required from the identity provider to verify users' identities.
- Entity ID, used to uniquely identify the application and obtained from the service provider.
- ACS URL, the application's URL to which SAML assertions from the IdP will be sent after user authentication occurs.
- Certificates, if the template you select is based on a PingFederate connection that requires a certificate.
When you add an application to PingCentral, you can provide an .xml file that contains service provider metadata from a similar SAML application. This file could contain an Entity ID, ACS URL, certificates, attribute information, or all of this information.
Or, you can provide the Entity ID, ACS URL and certificates during the promotion process.
To create an .xml file from a similar application, see Downloading service provider metadata.
