Managing Access Model Metadata

To enrich an organization’s access model and add valuable contextual information to access items, Admins can utilize metadata attributes. SailPoint includes some default global metadata attributes you can use “out-of-the-box”. You can also create custom metadata attributes for entitlements and roles to add further context.
