An identity provider (IdP) adapter looks up session information and provides user identification to PingFederate. You must configure at least one instance of an IdP adapter in order to set up connections to service provider (SP) partners.

PingFederate comes bundled with the PingID integration kit and the following adapters:

  • Composite Adapter
  • HTML Form IdP Adapter
  • HTTP Basic IdP Adapter
  • Identifier First Adapter
  • Kerberos Adapter
  • OpenToken IdP Adapter
  • PingID Adapter
  • Reference ID IdP Adapter
  • X.509 Certificate IdP Adapter

Additional integration kits are available on the PingFederate download page under the Add-ons tab.

  1. Go to Authentication > Integration > IdP Adapters.
