# User account attributes

When user authentication is performed by the IdP, user account attributes in Active Directory and the IdP are compared with each other for a match. Attributes to be compared are configured on the IdP and in the RAS Console. For details, see [**SP side configuration (RAS side)**](https://docs.parallels.com/parallels-ras-administrators-guide-21/parallels-ras-21-administrators-guide/saml-sso-authentication/saml-configuration/sp-side-configuration-ras-side).
