[Unity-idm-discuss] Naming of groups created via upman

[Sander A. <sa....@fz...>]

Dear Krzysztof,

We encountered a problem with the names of groups, which was created by
groupadministrators in upman endpoint. The name of the group which is
released in groups attribute differs from the name which entered the
user. It seems that unity creates a name randomly and the entered name
is only used as display name.

I agree that the group administrators should only enter one name and
not two like the unity administrators can do. But the information is
used for group based access management on service provider level. If
the groupname differs from the name which was entered by the group
administrators, this is not possible.

What is the reason for the randomly generated grounames? Can this
behaviour changed?

Cheers,
Sander
