This page provides information on configuring user attributes. To modify the values of attributes for a specific user, navigate to User Management, select the user, and go to the Attributes tab.

Configuring user attributes allows you to:

• Adjust the name, including translations
• Configure visibility for users
• Configure editability for users
• Create additional attributes beyond the predefined ones

By default, the following predefined user attributes are configured:

• Department / Area
• Role / Position
• Location
• Phone
• Mobile Phone
• About Me

In addition to these predefined attributes, custom attributes can be created.

1. Go to: Admin Console > User Management > User Attributes
2. Click on Add Attribute
3. Select:
   • A display name, which is shown to the user
   • A technical name, relevant for API usage
   • A data type (Text or Phone Number)
