Simplest way to set custom profile attribute from group membership

Hi,

 

We're looking for a way to automatically apply a specific value to a custom profile attribute for a subset of our users, based on their group memberships.

 

For example, if a user is a member of the group "Data Administrators", a specific custom profile attribute will take on a specific pre-defined value. Likewise, removing the user from that group will reset that profile attribute.

 

Is there a remotely simple way of doing this? We're fairly new to Okta so any pointers would be appreciated.

 

Thanks!

    Hi @JoelC.81091 (Customer)​,

     

    I don't know if there's any easy way to achieve this, but I let others chime in as well. Using some workflow might be the only option.

     

    By looking at the Okta's ideas page it seems like there's quite a lot of similar ideas already closed without any action. Maybe you can open another one and see if it sticks?

      Thanks! We're testing the Workflows route now. Seems ok so far. Thanks for the tip.
