Create new attributes

When you create an identity store, you define which attributes are included in customer accounts. These attributes determine what information Strivacity stores and how it is displayed or collected in your applications.

Step 1: Select an attribute creation strategy

When creating a new identity store, open the Attributes tab and choose one of the following strategies:

• Only necessary: Creates only the essential attributes needed for authentication, such as identifiers and password attributes. This option is suitable for most deployments.
• Sample: Creates the necessary attributes and several additional example attributes, such as name and address-related fields, to help you get started.

After selecting a strategy, save the identity store. The available attributes for that store become visible in the Attributes tab.

Step 2: Manage existing attributes

After the identity store is created, the Attributes tab lists all account attributes.

From this view, you can:

• Enable or disable attributes.
• Mark attributes as required.
• Control where attributes appear (Self-service registration, Self-service invitation, My Account page, Admin console, Organization portal).
• Edit or remove attributes as needed.
• Use Create attribute to define a new custom attribute.

Step 3: Add a new attribute

To add a new attribute:

1. Select + Create attribute.
2. Choose the attribute type. Each option includes a short preview.

Available types include:

• Checkbox
• String
• Select
• Phone
• Date

👍

Each attribute type has its own configuration options. For details, see:
