Need to add more fields

Hi I am totally new to camunda. In our project we are using camunda 7.10. For Add user feature we need to add some more fields. one is dropdown and another one is array of string. Currently it has firstname, lastname,email. For the add user it is calling UserProfileDto. if I want to update additional fields how can I update it. Please let me know

Hi @prachi1

Camunda 7.10 came out in 2018 i think and is out of support - is there a reason why you’re using such an old version?

Hi Niall…yeah actually it is quiet old project where we can not update version that is reason we are continuing with that version only

So you’re using Camunda’s built in user management? Rather than using LDAP or some kind of external user management system?

No we are not using any external user management system. Once we click on add user its directly calling the UserProfileDto class

JSON parse error: Unrecognized field \“roles\” (class org.camunda.bpm.engine.rest.dto.identity.UserProfileDto), not marked as ignorable getting this error after add user

Can someone please let me know above solution? Do I need to use external user management system or will it work in camunda’s built in user management as currently we are using?Also in both cases how should I proceed?

It would be much, much easier to use an external user management service than trying to update some of Camunda’s core libraries, especially if you’re not certain on the side affects of the changes you make. Most people who use Camunda 7 will use an existing or 3rd party user management system which is quite easy to connect to camunda 7.

You can read more about it here: Identity Service | docs.camunda.org

Thanks a lot @Niall I will check it and try to implement
