Integrate Gong
Gong is a reality platform that captures what is going on with a company's customers and team to deliver insights and guidance that allows companies to adapt, upskill, and hit company targets. See https://www.gong.io. You can protect access to Gong by integrating Gong with Identity as a Service. Once integrated, users can use single sign-on to log in to their Gong account through Identity as a Service.
Note: This integration was tested using Identity as a Service version 5.33 and Gong 2.29.0. Other versions of Gong may require integration and configuration steps that differ from those documented in this procedure. For other versions of Gong, this integration guide may be used as an initial approach for integrating Gong. In the event of other issues, contact support@entrust.com for assistance.
