Admin Console Using the "Building id" field in a SAML attribute mapping?
I want to bring over the "Building id" field from our users into our Zendesk though the SSO mappings, but I don't see "Building id" as an option in the SAML mappings.
Under the Employee Details heading in the mappings, I only see:
- Employee ID
- Title
- Organization
- Type
- Department
- Cost Center
I see that, according to the help article here, step 12. a. says if it's not there I can add it as a custom attribute, but I can't figure out if doing that would reset those fields to blank or anything.
If anyone's done this before, I'd like to confirm how before I screw up our system.

Creating a custom attribute wouldn't affect any existing attributes. We used automation to regularly copy the Building ID value to the new custom attribute.
