 ## Attributes and expressions
-When an object, such as a user is provisioned to Azure AD, a new instance of the user object is created.  This creation includes the properties of that object, which are also known as attributes.  Initially, the newly created object will have its attributes set to values that are determined by the synchronization rules.  These attributes are then kept up to date via the cloud provisioning agent.

-Attribute synchronization may be either direct, where the value in Azure AD is directly set to the value of the on-premises attribute.

A programmatic expression would be needed in cases where some logic or a determination needed to be made in order to populate the value.
