Change username

Question

Hello,

I'm generating username randomly. But I want to let user the change username. Is that possible? When I looked at the API, it seems that just password can be change.

Answer 1

You can not modify username as it is unique identifier for user. However You can use attribute firstName/lastName of user profile which can be modified.

Another alternate is to use email Id/password  for authentication instead of username/password. Since you can modify emailId of user, this will solve your purpose. See this for details.

Let me know if it is helpful.
