Hi,

We are trying to setup a self-hosted Temporal server. We’re running into the issue where triggering a schedule creates a workflow whose’s first event history item contains an `Identity` field. The issue is that the `Identity` field only contains the schedule’s name. It is missing the user who triggered it. I remember this is a feature in Temporal Cloud.

How can we set this up for our self-hosted deployment?

Note: We’ve already setup RBAC (shout out to Bitovi for [this article](https://www.bitovi.com/blog/implementing-role-based-authentication-for-self-hosted-temporal)).

ps: I think I saw this issue somewhere else, but I can’t find it again. Apologies if this is a dupe.

Thanks!

I am not aware of this `Identity` filed but If you want to track such information, you can add it as `typedSearchAttributes` or as `memo` filed when creating the schedule.
