PingFederate stores customer identities in PingDirectory, improving the flexibility, scale, and security of your user data. Follow these steps to connect PingFederate to a directory to store identity and profile data and expose the data to all applications and channels through LDAPv3.

Using the Data Store Configuration tab, connect your LDAP datastore to PingFederate.
  1. Go to Authentication > Policies > Local Identity Profiles.
  2. On the Data Store Configuration tab, click Configure Data Store.
    This will open a Data Store window.
  3. On the Data Store Type tab, enter a name in the Name field, and from the Type list, select Directory (LDAP).
  4. Click Next.

    If you have not yet created an LDAP datastore to connect PingFederate to your PingDirectory or if you want to review your LDAP datastore settings, click Manage Data Store.
