How does “first mile” integration at the IdP work?

IdP integration involves retrieving user identity attributes from the IdP domain and sending them to the PingFederate server. Typically, the identity attributes are retrieved from an authenticated user session. For IdP integration, a number of attribute-retrieval approaches can be used, depending upon the IdP deployment/implementation environment.

Ping Identity Integration Kits provide “first mile” integration at the Identity Provider.

Ping Identity offers a broad range of commercial integration kits that address various IdP scenarios, most of which involve either custom application integration, integration with a commercial IdM product, or integration with an existing authentication system.
