You can manage provisioning channels in the PingFederate administrative console to add, modify, and delete channels.

A provisioning channel is a mapping configuration between user attributes contained in a source user store and attributes supported or required by the targeted software-service application. You can have multiple channels to the same target as needed, such as if your organization has separate LDAP stores, or different nodes in the same store, for various user groups needing single sign-on (SSO) access and provisioning to the same domain.

Tip:

There can be only one provisioning target per connection. If your organization subscribes to multiple domains for which you need provisioning support, you need a separate service provider (SP) connection for each domain.

Go to Applications > Integration > SP Connection > Configure Channels. On the Manage Channels tab, you can perform the following tasks:

  • To add a new channel, click Create.

    Alternatively, you can create a new channel by copying an existing channel and making other required changes.

  • To modify existing channel settings, select an existing channel.
  • To remove or cancel the removal request of the existing channel, use the Delete and Undelete workflow.
