What is the Ping Identity MCP Server?
Connect your Ping Identity environment to any AI agent to streamline identity and access management (IAM). You can audit users, check security policies, and review applications directly through conversation.
What you can do
- User Management — List identities, view detailed user profiles, and safely delete users across the enterprise directory.
- Applications & Groups — Audit all Web, Native, or SPA apps federated under your environment, and list active IAM groups.
- Populations — Review isolated populations dividing contractors, partners, or B2B clients.
- Risk & Policies — Inspect active Risk Management rules and Zero-Trust sign-on workflows dictating real-time MFA.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your PingOne Environment ID and API Token
- Start managing your enterprise identity posture from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- IAM Administrators — audit active user populations, access groups, and verify application settings faster.
- Security Engineers — review real-time risk policies, sign-on flows, and MFA requirements instantly without navigating consoles.
- IT Support — quickly fetch specific user metadata and check active session/credential health.
Built-in capabilities (10)
Revokes all current session tokens, nullifies application scopes, isolates SCIM directory references, and executes the formal deletion API. Hard delete a user identity and purge related credentials
Determines configured Implicit/Authorization Code grants, token lifespan definitions, embedded sign-on policies, and allowed callback URIs required for stringent redirection security mapping. Get configuration for a single federated Ping Identity application
View explicit details encompassing a standard Ping Group
Get complete contextual metadata for a specific Ping Identity user
Crucial to verify application exposure footprint. List Web, Native or SPA apps federated under standard PingOne
Allows mapping high-level RBAC scopes dynamically injected into ID tokens returned via SSO channels upon successful client authorization flows. List identity Groups utilized for aggregate permissions
g., 'Contractors', 'Partners', 'B2B Clients') possessing inherently different default password complexities, independent password expiration parameters, and isolated self-service recovery scopes. List isolated Populations logically partitioning the Environment
Evaluates contextual IP anomalies, impossible travel, blocklisted VPN routes, or behavioral irregularities explicitly stepping up authentication flows or directly blocking malicious login execution. List active Risk Management rules dictating real-time MFA
Sign-on policies chain distinct rules together enforcing explicit MFA prompts, enforcing complex password structures based on population assignment, or mandating implicit biometric validation prior to releasing environment tokens. List logical Sign-on flows and strict authentication conditions
Paginates across all bounded external and internal localized users containing primary credentials, deeply nested JSON identifiers, and physical verification states assigned under the Enterprise Directory schema. List all user identities within the standard PingOne Environment
Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Ping Identity data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 10 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.
- —
VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor
- —
Project-scoped MCP configs (
.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access - —
Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop
- —
GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically detect insecure applications federated under my PingOne Environment?
Yes. Ask the agent to list all applications and their OIDC/SAML parameters. It will return grant types and callback URIs. You can instruct your AI to identify any applications exposing excessive grants, lacking mandatory PKCE, or missing secure redirection URLs.
Can I use the agent to investigate complex zero-trust policies?
Absolutely. Query the agent for your current Risk Policies and Sign-On Policies. The AI translates raw rulesets (like IP anomalies, VPN blocklists, or ML-based behavioral steps) into human-readable summaries, letting you track how authentication flows operate without reverse-engineering JSON files.
How does the agent organize directories inside PingOne?
The agent can separate users utilizing Ping Identity's native Population boundaries and abstract mapping Groups. You can list all Populations to see distinct buckets entirely independent of each other, enforcing different self-service and strict password compliance boundaries globally across your organization.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
