Issue when creating a Self Description – Missing “CONSUMER” attribute in policies

Hello team,

While trying to create a Self Description with a Data Provider test agent, I encountered a problem. When adding the policies related to the Self Description in the _Attribute_ or _Usage Assignee_ field, there is no possibility to select the **CONSUMER** attribute.

I suspect this may be caused by the **Assignable to Roles** property of the attribute or by some change introduced in the latest versions. In previous versions—such as those used in the Simpl-Open installation course and the versions used in the MVP Showcase at the 2025 Annual Event—it was possible to select this attribute.

Therefore, I would like to ask: **Why is this happening?**\
Are we expected to configure the identity attributes ourselves, or should they be preconfigured during deployment?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Best regards,

Pablo
