# Example: setting up custom mapping for Ping Identity
This page explains how to configure the custom mapping of roles for Ping Identity using [Legacy custom mapping](/platform-administration/user-management/single-sign-on-sso-for-authentication-to-snyk/custom-mapping/legacy-custom-mapping.md).
{% hint style="info" %}
This guide assumes your Ping Identity application is configured and functional.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="info" %}
Any step on the Snyk side in setting up the Enterprise application must be performed by your Snyk contact, as self-serve SSO does not accommodate custom mapping.
{% endhint %}
1. In your application configuration, select **Attribute mappings** and click the pencil to edit the attributes.
Edit mapping attributes
2. Select **+Add** and enter the following attribute, then save the change,\
**roles**: `Group Names`\\
Add roles array
3. In the left menu, select **Identities/Groups** and add the Snyk Groups needed following the syntax explained on the [Cusom Mapping Option](/platform-administration/user-management/single-sign-on-sso-for-authentication-to-snyk/custom-mapping.md) page.
Adding an example Group
4. If you so not select a **Population** at the bottom of the previous screen, ensure that you assign the Group to the user(s) who should be part of the role assignment in Snyk. If you select a **Population**, all users in that population will inherit the permissions of the assigned Snyk role.
5. To finalize the process, reach out to your Snyk contact to validate that the SAML payload contains the role array and to enable the custom mapping feature.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.snyk.io/platform-administration/user-management/single-sign-on-sso-for-authentication-to-snyk/custom-mapping/examples-setting-up-custom-mapping-for-idps/example-setting-up-custom-mapping-for-ping-identity.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
