# Ping Identity SAML

This guide explains how to integrate Fiddler with an existing Ping Identity SSO application using SAML.

### Ping Identity Setup

1. Create a new SAML integration application with following properties:

* **ACS URL**: <https://deployment\\_name/api/sso/ping/callback>
* **Entity ID**: <https://deployment\\_name/>
* Set Signing property to **Sign Assertion and Response** .

Once the setup is complete, download the certificate file.

### Deployment Instructions

1. Create a `<secret_filename>.yaml` file using the following template.

You'll find the values in the Ping application's configuration.

```yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
    name: fiddler-sso-ping-credentials
    namespace: <NAMESPACE_NAME>
data:
    # Value of Single Sign-On Service when viewing the configuration of the application 
    sso-ping-entry-point: <PING_ENTRY_POINT> 
    # Value of entity ID
    sso-ping-entity-id: <PING_ENTITY_ID> 
    # Download .crt file from the application configuration
    sso-ping-cert: <PING_CERTIFICATE> 
type: Opaque
```

{% hint style="info" %}
All the values must be base64 encoded.

On Mac OS X, you can run `echo -n "string to be encoded" | base64` to get the encoded value.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Do not use double quotes anywhere in the values.
{% endhint %}

2. Update the Kubernetes secret in the namespace of the cluster using the above file.

```
kubectl apply -f <secret_filename>.yaml -n fiddler
```

3. Update the Helm variables below.

```
fiddler:
    auth:
        sso:
            provider: ping
        ping:
            secretName: fiddler-sso-ping-credentials
```

{% hint style="info" %}
Once the deployments are updated, the new SSO settings will be applied.
{% endhint %}
