Hi Dino,

Virtual attributes are user attributes that are not stored on the Syncope db. If you enter a virtual attribute in the user schema you can change its value through the form.

When you save an user, Syncope assign the value of each virtual attribute to all resource accounts that define the virtual attribute name in their schema map.

In conclusion, virtual attributes value reside only on external resources.
