   exports.onExecutePostLogin = async (event, api) => {
   2
   
   3
   api.samlResponse.setAttribute("email", event.user.email || null);
   4
   api.samlResponse.setAttribute("full_name", event.user.name || null);

   6
   api.samlResponse.setAttribute("roles", event.user.app_metadata.flex.roles);
