Hi All, we are using Okta for our OIDC implementation, we are able to create user when he/she is not available but the problem is, the user id is getting created something weird(may as per the requirement but not suitable for us). Currently it is getting creating something like this, but we need th…

The Sync Gateway user is based on the subject claim in the token. That is the principal Id. The name and email claims in a JWT are not guaranteed to be unique and hence not used for generating the user Ud. To guarantee uniqueness of the subject claim across issuers, the sync gateway prefixes the …

Thanks Priya. Is there a way we can add user name? my thinking is wrong but let’s say we have 2 users access to the application in Okta, so what will be the user id in this case. Both users id will be same, because sub is coming from the client_id(Okta configuration)

Sorry I spoke wrongly. I tired with another user for the same app , the sub value is different in both cases any have is there a way we can make the name to create user. For example, for the second user I am getting below { “sub”: “00uawvetdEeKWmlvP4x6”, “name”: “nagarajan nags”, “email”: “ na…

Subject does not come from OIDC config. It is unique for an issuer and is contained in the token. For that reason, it is selected as the unique identifier for a user. What is the use case for needing to customize the name field ?

Hi Priya/Team, Here is our use case. We have a custom micro service which is used do a channel mapping for a requested user in sync GW. Lets say we have a channels a,b,c available but it has not been mapped anything at sync GW level. Now we a mobile application which will send user information to…

[image] Nags: Now the problem is, mobile application only knows the name field, it don’t know the sub value for the user( sub we can extract is from token but we don’t want show that to actual user so we want to keep it at user name level). ex: I am not clear on what you meany by " showing i…
