You mean to map multiple different attributes from User into one 
attribute of AccessToken? That's not possible with the existing mappers 
. The thing is that you can write your own protocol mapper 
implementation and map the claims exactly how you want.

The accessToken has "otherClaims" map on it. You can use any hierarchy 
you want to map your stuff into the access token. The best is again to 
write your own protocol mapper to achieve exactly what you want.
