Splunk® Intelligence Management (Legacy)

User Guide

Enable users on Splunk Intelligence Management using Ping Identity

Install and configure the Ping Identity app that provides single sign-on (SSO) access to the Splunk Intelligence Management web app. The Ping Identify app uses the SAML 2.0 standard to enable SSO. For more information on SAML, see Okta's SAML documentation.

Ping SSO does not impact or change API credentials. Usage of Python SDK or any other vendor integrations remain unimpacted when you switch a user from non SSO to SSO-enabled login credentials.

When using the Ping Identity app for SSO, Ping is the identity provider (IDP) and Splunk Intelligence Management app is the service provider (SP).

Prerequisite
You must be a Ping Identity administrator to complete these steps.
