When you create a PingCentral template based on an existing PingFederate or PingAccess application, or add an existing PingFederate or PingCentral application to PingCentral, the raw JSON is saved to PingCentral.
PingCentral does not display the entire JSON file when you select an application, but the most relevant information is provided to help you distinguish between applications.
Creating OAuth and OIDC application templates
- The client application.
- The ATM, if one exists.
- The parent ATM, if one exists.
- The OIDC policy, if one exists.
- Definitions of exclusive scopes referenced by the client.
Refer to OIDC connection orchestration to see a diagram of the PingFederate items orchestrated by PingCentral.
To create a template, select a client configuration that exists in a PingFederate environment to replicate. PingCentral retrieves this configuration from PingFederate and saves it as a building block for future applications.
-
On the Select OAuth Client or OIDC Client page, select the PingFederate environment that hosts the client application
you want to use as a template, and then select the application itself from the
Client list.
Details regarding the selected client display.

Click Save and Close.
You will see the new template in the list of available application templates. Application owners will see the new template on the Select Template page.
Creating SAML SP application templates
- Connection information.
- Attribute names defined in the associated authentication policy contract.
Refer to SAML connection orchestration to see a diagram of the PingFederate items orchestrated by PingCentral.
To create a template, select a connection configuration that exists in a PingFederate environment to replicate. PingCentral retrieves this configuration from PingFederate and saves it as a building block for future applications.
-
On the Select SAML Connection page, select the PingFederate environment that hosts the connection you want
to use as a template, and then select the connection from the
Connection list.
Details regarding the connection display.

On the Select PingAccess Application page, from the
Environment list, select the PingAccess environment that hosts the
application you want to use as a template, and then from the
Application list, select the application.
The application details display next to the Application list.
