Configuration – Password Safe

 

Create a Group for SCIM Service Accounts, and change access to Full Control for the Features as shown above.
For each Managed Account Smart Group, add Read Only permission.

Note: This is a manual step that is required every time a new Managed Account Smart Group is created.  Only Managed Account Smart Group of the Category “Managed Account” are visible via the SCIM today.  Category of “Platform” or “Custom” are not visible.

 

Note: The permissions to Managed Account Smart Group is not needed for current version of PingOne Advanced Security Cloud today but will be leveraged in upcoming version for expanded visibility.

Create a new User and assign to the Group.
Login as the Service Account and access the Connector. Recycle the Client Secret and write down both Client ID and Secret.

Note: Client Credentials is the preferred method for initial testing, while Refresh Token is recommended for Production.
