Configure custom attributes

This is an optional step but a useful one. You can provision your Aha! users with user and hierarchy permissions. This makes it easier for new users to engage with your Aha! account, and saves you time managing users individually.

To do this:

1. Go to the enterprise application in Azure AD.

2. Select Single Sign-On where SAML should be configured.

3. Edit attributes and claims. Add one or two new claims.

ProductPrefix

The ProductPrefix role grants a user access to specific Aha! workspaces, workspace lines, or teams.

You can find a list of workspace prefixes by navigating to:

• Aha! Roadmaps and Aha! Ideas: Settings ⚙️ Account Workspaces

• Aha! Develop: Settings ⚙️ Account Teams

You will need to be an administrator with customization permissions to access these pages.

The workspace or team you select with ProductPrefix is added to the user only at the time that they are first provisioned, and will not update if you change this attribute later. This attribute is very handy for giving new users a default workspace or team when they first join your account. For advanced hierarchy permissions, navigate to

• Settings ⚙️ Account Users

You will need to be an administrator with billing permissions to do this.

Note: If you set the ProductPrefix attribute, you also need to set the ProductRole attribute.

To do this in Azure AD:

1. Name the claim ProductPrefix.

2. Expand the Claim conditions section.

3. Select User Type as Any.

4. Select the Azure AD Group to which you want to assign access to this ProductPrefix.

5. Set the Source as Attribute.

6. Set the Value to the appropriate Aha! workspace, workspace line, or team Prefix.
   Note: ProductPrefix is the short code prefix of the hierarchy element, not the element's full name. The prefix is used to code records in that workspace, line, or team. For example, a workspace named Mobile might have a ProductPrefix MBL.

ProductRole

The ProductRole attribute works in conjunction with the ProductPrefix attribute and allows you to specify which level of access a user should have.

ProductPrefix is only used when a user is initially provisioned. Values match with Aha! user permission roles and must be one of the following:

• product_owner

• contributor

• reviewer

• viewer

• none

To do this in Azure AD:

1. Name the claim ProductPrefix.

2. Expand the Claim conditions section.

3. Select User Type as Any.

4. Select the Azure AD Group to which you want to assign access to this ProductPrefix.

5. Set the Source as Attribute.

6. Set the Value to the appropriate user permission role.
