How to Create Custom Optional Attributes for Self Service SSO in Auth0

Overview

This article demonstrates how to override the default optional attribute list when generating Self-service access tickets. 

The Self-service Single Sign-On (SSO) access ticket generation process generates a default set of optional attributes that can enhance the user profile. The default attributes available can vary between Identity Providers and connection types. There may be instances where a specific set of optional attributes is required to be used instead of the default.
