    https://<your-team-name>.cloudflareaccess.com/cdn-cgi/access/saml-metadata

    where <your-team-name> is your Cloudflare One team name. 3. Select Import. 4. Save the configuration.

  7. In the Configuration tab, select Download metadata and save the XML metadata file. This file will be used in a later step to add PingOne to Cloudflare One.

  8. In the Attribute Mappings tab, add the following required attributes (case sensitive) and select Save.

    Application attributeOutgoing value
