# sailpoint.v2025.PublicIdentitiesConfigApi
  Use this API to implement public identity configuration functionality. 
With this functionality in place, administrators can make up to 5 identity attributes publicly visible so other non-administrator users can see the relevant information they need to make decisions. 
This can be helpful for approvers making approvals, certification reviewers, managers viewing their direct reports&#39; access, and source owners viewing their tasks.

By default, non-administrators can select an identity and view the following attributes: email, lifecycle state, and manager. 
However, it may be helpful for a non-administrator reviewer to see other identity attributes like department, region, title, etc.
Administrators can use this API to make those necessary identity attributes public to non-administrators. 

For example, a non-administrator deciding whether to approve another identity&#39;s request for access to the Workday application, whose access may be restricted to members of the HR department, would want to know whether the identity is a member of the HR department. 
If an administrator has used [Update Public Identity Config](https://developer.sailpoint.com/docs/api/v2025/update-public-identity-config/) to make the &quot;department&quot; attribute public, the approver can see the department and make a decision without requesting any more information.
