# Attribute fetch modes

For information about properties to configure attribute fetching, refer to [Attributes](../properties-reference/preface.html#attributes).

Java Agent can fetch and inject user information into HTTP headers, request objects, and cookies, and pass them on to client web applications. The client web applications can personalize content using these attributes in their web pages or responses.

You can configure the type of attributes to fetch, and map the attribute names used on AM to the values used in the containers. The agent securely fetches the user and session data from the authenticated user, as well as policy response attributes.
