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.
What data does Addigy Identity fetch when the "Collect User Attributes" setting is turned on?
- Identity Email
- Identity Employee Department
- Identity Employee Hire Date
- Identity Employee Type
- Identity Mobile Phone
- Identity Provider Name
- Identity User Display Name
