Configure a Custom Attribute for External Client Apps

Edit the settings file to add a custom attribute. Each new attribute in the settings file creates a related attribute in the policies file at runtime.

You can add up to 128 attributes, and each new attribute must have a unique key and must use an available field.

  1. Open the settings file.
  2. Add a custom attribute that includes a unique key and an available field. 
        <customAttributes>
        <key>userattribute</key>
        <formula>$User.Country</formula>
    </customAttributes>
  3. Deploy the external client app to incorporate the new attribute.

The new attribute appears in the policies file when the local or subscriber admin deploys the external client app.
