PingOne Worker Application and User Configuration

PingOne Worker Application Configuration
To manage PingOne resources using credentials other than your own, you are required to have a PingOne Worker App.
There are three options to authenticate to PingOne from pingctl:
-
Authorization Code (w/ PKCE) Flow (Recommended and most secure) - Using a PingOne Admin User
-
Implicit Flow - Using a PingOne Admin User
-
Client Credentials Flow (Easiest, but most insecure, as a user isn’t required)
Additionally, you must set up the proper roles for your Worker App
