Hi John,

I think we do something like what you are talking about. For one of our applications, we store an application specific username in the user’s app_metadata. I would suggest using app_metadata for this, not user_metadata. app_metadata is for attributes the user should not be able to edit themselves.

So you could have something like:

{
    "app_metadata": {
        "your_application": {
            "username": "janedoe"
        }
    }
}

When the user logs in you will want to include that username attribute in the claim you send back to your application. You can use a rule to do this.
