Decide whether the service requires additional information about subscription to work properly. The standard information about the subscription sent to the service is described in the table below.

attributes | object | Set of additional subscription attributes, which are required for the subscription provisioning:

Subscription attributes are used if the vendor wants to store additional information about subscription in ActivePlatform. The diagram bellow shows the flow of data with subscription attributes. You can add the attributes in the Attributes section of Vendor Portal if you need to receive additional information during subscription provisioning.
After creation subscription attributes in Vendor Portal (see Add Attributes), additional information is displayed on the Customer Panel after subscription provisioning. The service sends this information to ActivePlatform to show it customers ( for example, instructions on how to use the service).
Also, you can add hidden subscription attributes. The hidden subscription attributes are not displayed for customers in the Customer Panel (see Product attributes).
