ADDING ON TO THE ALLAHUMMA ANTAS SALAM DUA?

There are variations that exists for this dua. For example:
اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ السَّلَامُ وَمِنْكَ السَّلَامُ وَإِلَيْكَ يَرْجِعُ السَّلَامُ فَحَيِّنَا رَبَّنَا بِالسَّلَامِ وَأَدْخِلْنَا دَارَكَ دَارَ السَّلَامِ تَبَارَكت رَبنَا وَتَعَالَيْت يَا ذَا الْجلَال وَالْإِكْرَام
Allahumma Antas Salam wa minkas Salam wa ilayka yarji’us salam fahayyina Rabbana bis salam wa adkhilna daraka daras salam tabarakta Rabbana wa ta’alayta Ya Dhal Jalali wal Ikram
You may not remember where you learned it from but it’s in your head. Now, there’s nothing sinful in remembering or saying a different variation but there is no basis for these extra words.
If you’d like to keep to the Sunnah of the Prophet, may peace be upon him, recite what was shown above.
Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
