Managing Username Aliases

Managing Username Aliases enables administrators to associate multiple usernames or email addresses with a single unique user identity. This ensures that end users can authenticate across different applications using their respective usernames while maintaining the same MFA methods and license allocation. Administrators can also configure Alias Labels to organize and identify aliases efficiently, providing greater flexibility and consistency in identity management.

How to enable or use the Username Alias feature

• Log into miniOrange Admin Console.
• Click the gear icon in the top-right corner to open Settings.



• In the Settings menu, click on Users.



• Scroll down to the Enable Username Alias checkbox.



• Click on Save.
• From the left sidebar, go to Users >> Alias Labels.



• Add alias labels based on your requirements.



• Click on Save.
• Go to the User List, click on Select next to any user, and choose Assign Username Aliases.



• Add username aliases for the selected user.



• To use this feature with the MFA API, refer to the following documentation:
• MFA OAuth API Guide
  Use the username alias value in place of the standard username in your API calls.
• To use this with JIT Mapping, go to Identity Providers, click on Configure JIT Mapping, and enter the username alias value.
