Version 16100.4
Key features
- PingOne Authorize node (TNTP-183)
-
Use this node to send a decision request to a specified decision endpoint in your PingOne Authorize environment.
- PingOne node improvements (SDKS-3468)
-
- PingOne Create, Identify, and Delete Nodes
-
The following PingOne nodes are now available:
- PingOne Identity Match node
-
Use the PingOne Identity Match node to identify if a user exists both in the user repository and in PingOne, using defined attributes.
- PingOne Create User node

-
Delete users from the PingOne platform with the PingOne Delete User node.
- PingOne Verify nodes
-
Use the following PingOne Verify nodes in conjunction with the PingOne Identity Match node, PingOne Create User node, and PingOne Delete User node to create a seamless verification process in your journey:
- PingOne Verify Evaluation node
-
Use PingOne Verify to initiate or continue a verification transaction with the PingOne Verify Evaluation Node.
