Configure Ping Identity as a SAML identity provider for NocoDB.

This article gives the steps to configure Auth0 as the identity provider for NocoDB.

### NocoDB, Retrieve `SAML SSO` Configuration details

1. Go to `Account Settings`.
2. Select `Authentication (SSO)`.
3. Click the `New Provider` button.
4. In the dialog, type a `Display name` for the provider. The login page shows the provider with this name.
5. Copy the `Redirect URL` & `Audience / Entity ID`. You need these values later to configure the identity provider.

6. On the "Add Application" panel:
   * Type the application name and description.
   * For the Application Type, select "SAML Application". Then click "Configure."
   * In the SAML Configuration panel, select "Manually Enter."
   * In the `ACS URLs` field, enter the `Redirect URL` from step (2) above.
   * In the `Entity ID` field, enter the `Audience URI` from step (2) above.
   * Click `Save`.
7. In your application:
