Create as many attributes as you need and specify:
- an attribute name (unique within a directory)
- an attribute type (different types allow different data input, validators and search options. Read more below)
- a tab the attribute to be displayed on
- an attribute displaying in the grid (directory) view.
- attribute properties (each attribute has the – attribute-specific and common).

There are several properties available almost for each attribute type.
- Restrict duplicates – if checked, a user won't be able to save the non-unique (within the directory) value in the attribute.
- From creation – if checked, a user won't be able to change the attribute value after entry creation.
- Is read-only – if checked, a user won't be able to change the attribute value anymore.
- Width – the attribute width in pixels (you can make the attribute wider or shorter depending on assumed value length).
