Hello, good morning. In identity Providers created with Security Assertion Markup Language 2.0. It is possible create a new field with new attribute? For example, language. ![imagen](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/e/2/e2eb3324fa2b9b29c22c9dac61de1df2e6b0f690.png) I need identify this parameter for some configurations. I'm waiting for your answer. Best regards. ---

This is not currently possible. We have ticket `IGN-2467` in our internal backlog tracking a new feature to add custom attributes mapped from the IdP to Ignition. ---

Sorry for bring a few month old topic back up, but has there been any movement on this? ---

There's no movement on this. It's still in the "incubation" phase and probably not being prioritized over the mountains of 8.3 work we're all doing. ---

does one of those happen to be adding the badge to the mapping? ---

Not that I'm aware of, but this isn't really an area I'm looped into. The last work related to badge attributes I can see was about adding it to pure AD user sources. I'm guessing the ability to do custom attribute mappings would cover whatever the badge attribute might be. I don't see any separate tickets. ---

I doubt there is any progress on this becoming a feature yet (though hopefully it will soon 🙂 ) As a workaround - I would think one could sneak additional properties in through the “Roles” attribute since it is a multi-valued string array. It’s a bit messy but entering badge as a role called “attr:badge=12345”, you could then parse through the roles list and pull in roles that begin with attr: then use the delimiters to pull in the value when needed. ---

Interested in this when it is cleared!
