description: "How to set and use metadata attributes on user identities for ABAC."
|

---
|
||||
|
||||
User identities can have metadata attributes assigned directly. These attributes (such as location or department) are used to define dynamic access policies.

#### Setting Metadata on Users

<Tab title="Automatically Populate Metadata">
|
||||
For organizations using SAML for **user logins**, Infisical automatically maps metadata attributes from SAML assertions to user identities on every login. This enables dynamic policies based on the user's SAML attributes.

#### Applying ABAC Policies with User Metadata
|
||||
Attribute-based access controls are currently only available for polices defined on Secrets Manager projects.
|
||||
You can set ABAC permissions to dynamically set access to environments, folders, secrets, and secret tags.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
In your policies, metadata values are accessed as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
- **User ID:** `{{ identity.id }}` (always available)
|
||||
- **Username:** `{{ identity.username }}` (always available)
|
||||
- **Metadata Attributes:** `{{ identity.metadata.<metadata-key-name> }}` (available if set)
