# Exporting Service Provider Metadata

The Service Provider metadata is required to be imported into the Identity Provider to complete the trust relationship between the Identity Provider and the ASM app.

Prior to this, you must export the metadata. To export the Service Provider metadata, follow these steps:

1. Select ≡ > **Admin** > **Integration**.
2. In the Explorer pane, under **Single Sign On**, select **Service Providers** to display a list of Service Providers.
3. Select the Service Provider you want to export.
4. Make note of the string listed in the **Service Identifier** field.
5. Copy the XML data in the **Service Provider Metadata** fieldand store it in a text file. You will be referencing this file as part of the export, so it is advisable to store it in an appropriate location, and name it accordingly.
