Custom columns
When creating custom columns in the Cosmos employee database, the data is securely stored in Typesense, following their stringent standards.

We do not store user names or real names. We only save unique identifiers like Confluence IDs or Entra IDs to maintain functionality without linking personal identifiers (PII). Custom fields, such as department or location, are not considered PII unless connected to names or other sensitive information. |
Microsoft Entra ID integration
For organizations using Microsoft Entra ID integration, Cosmos provides seamless synchronization with the employee database. By default, employee data is retrieved from Entra ID on-the-fly during each session and is not stored locally.

However, for organizations with more than 2,000 users, the dynamic fetching process may face performance challenges due to system limits. Admins can enable data storage to boost app performance for large organizations. Stored data, linked to Entra IDs without personal details, is maintained in Typesense. |
