# Cisco Duo Integration Setup

#### Getting Started

Use this guide to connect Cisco Duo to your BalkanID tenant. You will need credentials from the Duo Admin Panel and access to the Integrations section in BalkanID.

**Requirements:**

Before you begin, collect the following values from Cisco Duo:

* **Integration key**
* **Secret key**
* **API hostname**

#### Configure Cisco Duo within your BalkanID tenant

1. To find the Integration key, Secret key, and API hostname, sign in to your Duo Admin Panel.
2. Navigate to Applications > Add a Application.
