Addigy Identity User Attributes Overview – Addigy

We added a new feature to Addigy Identity: User Attributes. User Attributes provide another powerful way to manage devices using a user-centric approach that can reduce a lot of admin time and simplify workflows. Once an end-user signs into their identity provider account, data returned from the provider is available within Addigy as device facts. Data such as Employee Department, Hire Date, Employee Type, etc., are very useful for automating Addigy in response to changes in your organization.

FAQs

How often does this data refresh?
After the end-user successfully signs in each time.

What should I do with these attributes now?
We highly recommend utilizing these User Attribute device facts to automatically filter devices using flex policies.

Does this new feature cost extra?
Nope, this feature does not come with an additional cost.

Where do I go to see these populated fields?
There are multiple ways to see this data. One way is by going to the devices page > Click on Columns > Search for "Identity." Then, select the attributes you would like to see.

I don't have this feature enabled. Does Addigy still collect the user data?
User information is only collected if the Collect User Attributes setting is enabled.

Why do some of my device facts show N/A?
It could mean the end-user still needs to sign in successfully or that the field in the Identity Provider directory is blank. It could also mean the feature is not enabled or configured properly.
