   ```
   $ https://autoid-ui.forgerock.com/
   ```

2. Log in as an admin user, specific to your system. For example:

   ```
   test user: bob.rodgers@forgerock.com
   password: Welcome123
   ```

3. Click the Administration icon, indicated by the sprocket. Then, click Entity Definitions.

4. On the Entity Definitions page, click Applications to add any new attributes to the schema.

   1. Click the Add attribute button.

   2. In the Attribute Name field, enter the name of the new attribute. For example, `app_owner_id`.

   3. In the Display Name field, enter a human-readable name of the attribute.

   4. Select the attribute type. The options are: `Text`,`Boolean`,`Integer`,`Float`,`Date`, and `Number`.

   5. Click Searchable if you want the attribute to be indexed and available in your filters.

   6. Click Save.

   7. Click Save again to apply your attribute.

   8. If you need to edit the attribute, click the Edit icon. If you need to remove the attribute, click the Remove icon. Note that attributes marked as `Required` cannot be removed.
