# Identifying expected group attributes for the SCIM response

On the **Attribute Contract** tab, you can identify the group attributes for you and your partner.

## About this task

An attribute contract is a set of group attributes that you and your partner have agreed will be sent in a System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) response for this connection. The attributes you mapped to group attributes on the **Write Groups**tab appear at the top of the tab.

Click **Available SCIM Attributes** near the lower-left corner of the tab to include additional attributes you want to map in the SCIM response.

Optionally, you can mask the values of attributes in the log files that PingFederate writes when it sends the SCIM response.

There are several SCIM attributes that are managed internally by PingFederate and are unavailable for inclusion in the attribute contract:

* `id`

* `members`

## Steps

1. To add an attribute, enter the attribute name in the text box, select the checkbox under **Mask Values in Log** as needed, and click **Add**.
