You can set up Single Sign-on (SSO) with PingFederate for your team. This section helps you to create an OIDC application with PingFederate. The Client ID, Client Secret, and Issuer URL of this OIDC application are required to setup SSO in Ona. See the step-by-step guide for the general instructions.

​
Prerequisites

As prerequisites you will need the following:
  • Access to your PingFederate instance
  • Administrator permissions on PingFederate to create and configure OAuth clients
  • Understanding of your organization’s authentication flow requirements

​
Create an OAuth Client

The OAuth client allows you to integrate with Ona using the OpenID Connect protocol. Please refer to the official PingFederate documentation for detailed configuration steps.
  1. Log in to your PingFederate Administrative Console.
  2. Navigate to Applications → OAuth → Clients.
  3. Click Add Client to create a new OAuth client.
  4. Configure the OAuth client with the following settings:
    • Client ID: Generate or specify a unique identifier (you’ll need this for Ona)
    • Client Authentication: Select Client Secret
    • Client Secret: Generate a secure secret (you’ll need this for Ona)
    • Allowed Grant Types: Select Authorization Code
    • Redirect URIs: https://app.gitpod.io/auth/oidc/callback
    • Allowed Scopes: Include at minimum:
      • openid
      • profile
      • email
  5. Configure Token Settings:
    • Set appropriate token lifetimes based on your security policies
    • Ensure ID tokens include necessary claims (sub, email, name)
  6. Save the Configuration and note down:
    • Client ID: The unique identifier you specified
    • Client Secret: The generated secret
    • Issuer URL: Your PingFederate base URL (e.g., https://your-pingfederate.company.com)

​
Additional Configuration

Depending on your PingFederate setup, you may need to:
  • Configure attribute mapping to ensure user information (email, name) is properly passed to Ona
  • Set up any required authentication policies or adapters
  • Configure session management settings
  • Review and adjust any security policies that might affect the integration

​
Continue with Ona Configuration

Once you have obtained the Client ID, Client Secret, and Issuer URL from your PingFederate configuration, continue with Step 1. Create a login provider in Ona.

​
Troubleshooting

Ensure the redirect URI in PingFederate exactly matches https://app.gitpod.io/auth/oidc/callback.
Verify that your PingFederate configuration includes the required OpenID Connect claims (sub, email, profile).
Check PingFederate logs for detailed error information.
For detailed configuration instructions and troubleshooting, refer to the PingFederate OAuth Configuration Guide.
