Subscriber Attributes

• Typically maintained by a user assigned the Meta Administrator role, but may be accessed by any user with sufficient permissions to access the view.

• Every subscriber has its own set of attribute definitions. The subscriber attributes define what information is required by a subscriber to configure the subscriber and alter its behavior. The attribute values act as default values.

• For example, a subscriber may define attributes for controlling how to consume the message.

• When a subscription is created, all subscriber attributes are copied as subscription attributes, and the values can be overridden. In this way, every subscription can provide different configuration parameters for the subscriber.

The following list defines every field available in the subscriber attributes (md_subscriber_att) table in alphabetical order:

• Attribute Key - the unique identifier.

• Attribute Value - the default value for data entry when editing subscription attributes.

• Created By - displays the name of the user who created the record you are viewing or maintaining. May not be overridden.

• Created On - displays the date on which the record that you are creating or maintaining was created. May not be overridden. May also represent the creation date of the records you are attempting to retrieve.

• Modification Counter - this field is not maintainable. The date and time a given record was last modified.

• Modified By - this field is not maintainable. The user or system process that last modified the record.

• Modified On - this field is not maintainable. The date on which the record was last modified.

• Subscriber Name - the foreign key to the subscriber entity.
