Issue
- What are the limits for the number of Custom Date, Integer, String and User Attributes that can be created?
- How many are already allocated to RSA Identity Governance and Lifecycle as default attributes?
Tasks
- The Date data type (CAD1 through CAD5) lets you assign or collect static date values.
- The Integer data type (CAI1 through CAI5) lets you assign or collect static integer values.
- The String data type (CAS1 through CAS20) lets you assign or collect static string values.
- The User data type (CAU1 through CAU5) lets you assign or collect values that represent a user in RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle.
Resolution
This information was taken from documentation for RSA identity Governance & Lifecycle version 7.0.2.
If more pre-defined Custom Attribute data types are needed for your implementation of RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle, please engage RSA Professional Services, so that they may review your requirements and suggest alternatives.
Abbreviation definitions:
- CAD - Custom Attribute (of data type) Date.
- CAI - Custom Attribute (of data type) Integer.
- CAS - Custom Attribute (of data type) String.
