Can't find documentation for user_id_attribute field on SAMLP connections

When creating a SAML connection using the GUI I see a field User Id Attribute that I can use to map a different field for the SAML user ID.

Using the API I see this field is set to user_id_attribute under options when creating a connection. But I can’t find any reference to this in the Management API.

Is this field safe to use? Anyone know of any documentation?

Hi @rob.mayhew,

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

That field is described a bit here: Configure Auth0 as SAML Service Provider

It’s an optional field that is safe to use!

Thanks,
