3.2 Updating the Entra ID using the MyID Operator Client

You can update the field that contains the Entra ObjectGUID using the Edit Person screen in the MyID Operator Client.

To update the Entra ID for a person:

1. Search for a person, and view their details.

   See the Searching for a person section in the MyID Operator Client guide.

2. Click the Edit Person option in the button bar at the bottom of the screen.

   You may have to click the ... option to see any additional available actions.

3. Click the Account tab.

   Note: If the person's account is linked to a directory, you cannot edit the settings on this tab unless you have set the Edit Directory Information option on the LDAP tab of the Operation Settings workflow to Yes.

   Set one of the following options:

   • External Reference ID 1 – maps to the XuSYSExternalReferenceId1 field in the MyID database. This is the default field to store the Entra ID.

   • External Reference ID 2 – maps to the XuSYSExternalReferenceId2 field in the MyID database.

   • External Reference ID 3 – maps to the XuSYSExternalReferenceId3 field in the MyID database.

   • User Principal Name – maps to the UserPrincipalName field in the MyID database.

   Note: If you use a different field than XuSYSExternalReferenceId1, you must make sure that you configure the External Entra Reference option in the External Systems workflow to use the appropriate field; see section 3.7.3, Setting up the external system.

4. Click Save.
