Ping Identity account with admin privileges

Create Zilla Security Application in Ping

In Ping Identity, expand the Connections dropdown, click Applications, and click the Plus button on the Applications page to create a new app.

Type a name in the Application Name field and select SAML Application as the Application Type.

We will want to manually enter our configuration, and will be asked for the Zilla ACS URL and Entity ID:

Zilla SAML Provider Setup

Log in as a Zilla admin and click on the Settings tab on the left side of the page. On the Discovery & Configuration tab, expand the Single Sign-On Provider dropdown and click Configure.

Select SAML and then click Configure. A Configure SAML window will appear.

Ping Configuration

Copy the Zilla ACS URL and Zilla Entity ID to your clipboard and paste them into the appropriate fields in Ping.

Copy the Initiate Single Sign-On URL in Ping and paste it into the IdP SSO URL field in Zilla.

Navigate to the Configuration tab in Ping and copy the Issuer ID. Paste it into the IdP Entity ID (Issuer) field in Zilla.

In the Configuration tab of Ping, download the x509 Signing Certificate.

Open the certificate in a code editor and copy the contents to your clipboard. Paste it into the Zilla IDP X.509 Certificate field.

Important: When pasting this certificate into the Zilla IDP X.509 Certificate field, you will need to remove -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- and -----END CERTIFICATE----- from the pasted value.

Toggle the Zilla Security App On in Ping before validating the connection in Zilla.

Click Validate in the Zilla SSO Configuration window.

Any reviewers, technical owners, or app owners can now log in to Zilla to see the apps and reviews they have been assigned using Ping Identity SSO.

When you have completed the steps above, review the information that was synced in Zilla.
