Will Custom Attributes created at Azure AD Synced to on-premise AD by any chance ?

All -

We are planning to use Azure AD App roles, Application groups etc and adding users to these Application groups.

At present there are certain properties which are not present in on-premise AD and hence we wanted to add those in Azure AD so that we can assign a value to these custom attributes for each user profile.

1) If we create Custom attributes in Azure AD, will that get Synced to on-premise AD by any chance ? (In fact we don't wanted to but wanted to check as if the sync happens then probably on-premise AD team might not even allow to create a Custom attribute.)

2) Also if we create a Custom attribute, hope we can query say get all the users with a filter condition on Custom attribute using Graph API.

Please let me know.

Thanks!

Hi Mathew, sorry for the delay. I've reached out to get an exact answer for you as our docs can be a little confusing. In the meantime, the going solution is that as long as you don't select the custom attributes to be synced, it will not update your on-prem.
