A user property is any data point you ask your users to input when creating their profile in Optix or your white-labeled app. User properties can be private and only shared with administrators or public-facing and displayed on the user's profile in the Directory.
Some common uses of custom properties for internal use include, but are not limited to:
Tracking which users have been provided a physical key or access card
Deposit management
Emergency contact information
Referral tracking
Printer ID code and PIN number
Some common uses of public-facing custom properties include, but are not limited to:
LinkedIn profile link
Job title
Skills
Favorite book or podcast
In your dashboard, you can view all the default properties from Settings > User Settings > User properties.
If you’d like to collect additional data points that aren’t listed in the default menu, learn how to create a custom user property here.
