Establish a quick connection between PingFederate and PingID.

Before you begin

Components

PingID is hosted on Ping’s cloud identity platform, PingOne for Enterprise.

Do the following:

Verify that PingFederate 10.2 or later is installed and running.
Ensure that you have internet access.
If you do not already have a PingOne for Enterprise account, create an account at https://admin.pingone.com/web-portal/register. You can find more information in Registering the PingID service.

Sign on to the PingOne for Enterprise admin console at https://admin.pingone.com/web-portal/login.
On the Setup page, create a PingOne for Enterprise directory as explained in Select PingOne for Enterprise Directory.
On the Setup > PingID > Client Integration page, make sure there is at least one PingID client in the Integrate with PingFederate and Other Clients section.
Click Download beside the PingID client to download the corresponding pingid.properties file.

The pingid.properties file contains the connection information that PingFederate needs to connect to your PingID instance.
Configure the PingID Adapter in PingFederate as explained in Managing IdP adapters (page 389).
