3621286 - Custom SAML mapping attribute changing from userID to emailID in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC)

Custom SAML mapping attribute changing from userID to emailID for 1 user in SAC

SAP ANALYTICS CLOUD 2025.8.6

1. Login to SAC for user ID "xxxx" 
2. Navigate to Security > Users
3. Notice the custom SAML column where the user ID is changed to email for this user only.

This happens each time the user "xxxx" logs in to SAC. For all other users the custom SAML mapping attribute is user ID.

User mapping is incorrect in custom IDP through which the SAML SSO is enabled in SAC.

Reconstruct the SAML user mapping in the custom IDP for the particular user and then login to SAC.
