Question about user attributes

I noticed that in the user attribute documentation there is a list of default values that can be mapped like first name, last name and so on. When i look at a user profile or the user lookup settings there are additional attributes that are not mapped and show empty on the profile like (Preferred Name, seat name, seat link, etc.). 

 

I created a custom attribute for seat name and it populated as a second attribute called seat name so in the user profile now I have seat name filled as a custom and seat name empty separately. 


Are these able to be mapped without creating a custom attribute?

This is expected. We show all Moveworks standard user attributes. If you are using a custom attribute which is analogous to the standard user attribute, it will be shown as a new entry.

Is there documentation on the full list of standard user attributes and the variables to map them? The current one excludes things like seat name, seat link, preferred name, etc.
