Ping Identity PAP-001 Exam - Topic 7 Question 4 Discussion

Posted by Elouise on Oct 06, 2025 at 07:52 PM

A protected web application requires that additional attributes be provided once the user is authenticated. Which two steps must the administrator perform to meet this requirement? (Choose 2 answers.)

Suggested Answer: B, E

When applications require additional attributes:

The Web Session must be configured to retrieve those attributes from the token provider (OIDC or PingFederate).

The Identity Mapping must be updated to forward those attributes to the application (e.g., as headers).

Exact Extract:

''Web sessions define how user attributes are retrieved from the token provider. Identity mappings determine how those attributes are inserted into requests to applications.''

Option A is not necessarily required; attributes can be retrieved via userinfo endpoint or access token, not only ID tokens.

Option B is correct --- Identity Mappings must be updated to pass attributes to the app.

Option C is incorrect --- Site Authenticators define how PingAccess authenticates to apps, not attribute handling.

Option D is incorrect unless the architecture specifically requires access token updates; PingAccess often uses the Web Session to fetch attributes.

Option E is correct --- Web Session must be updated to retrieve additional attributes.

This one's straightforward. The two steps are to request that the token provider update the ID token, and to update the identity mapping.

Ah, I see what they're getting at here. We need to request that the token provider update the ID token, and we also need to update the identity mapping to include the new attributes.

Alysa 12 months ago
Okay, let me think this through. I'm pretty sure we need to request that the token provider update the ID token with the additional attributes. And I think we also need to update the identity mapping.
