# Integer User Data

## Introduction

Attribute integer data can be stored per object or per point on a point cloud. This shader node gives you access to that attribute data, facilitating object or point shading variation without requiring different materials.

A typical example of using user integer data is to drive the Redshift [Switch Shader](https://help.maxon.net/r3d/cinema/en-us/Content/html/Shader%2BSwitch.html.md), to execute different shaders for different objects for texture variation.

### Attribute Name

This is the name of the user attribute assigned to the object or point cloud.

### Presets Button

This button lets you quickly access read data from your scene by filling the Attribute Name field with one of the following common sources:

- Mograph
  - Object ID
  - Alternative ID
- Objects
  - Object ID
  - Geometry ID
  - Geometry ID Absolute
- Particles
  - ID
  - Random Seed (TP)
  - Group ID (XP)

### Default

This is the value that will be output by the shader if the attribute is not found on the object or point cloud.
