ZD8599

SSO Patch

Due to an issue with the way an institution was passing across the eduPersonPrincipalName value in SSO we had to update the way that we were parsing this. Previously UnionCloud took the 'Alias' part of an email address, i.e. the bit before the @ symbol, and compared it to a set of identifiers within the Student Table, however a new SSO Union are allowing duplicate alias' for their users because they differentiate them by using an identifier after the @ in an email address.

For example, most unions with users of same initial and name, let's say C. Smith would be listed in the following way;

 c.smith@institution.ac.uk
 c.smith1@institution.ac.uk
 c.smith2@institution.ac.uk

However they were using the following method, based on the year a users course originated.

 c.smith@2016.institution.ac.uk
 c.smith@2017.institution.ac.uk
 c.smith1@2017.institution.ac.uk

After reviewing how we parse these email addresses we have updated the UnionCloud Single Sign on process to clarify the entire email address now, rather than just the 'username' portion.

  • This issue has been resolved.
