Description

For the import: should the email column be people's mail address or their Entra ID UPN? For most people they're the same, not for all.

Hi Henrik, use the address Entra ID sends at sign-in, which for your set-up is the UPN. We match that to the email on the person's account.

Where the import has a different address, the person will get "No account found for this sign-in" after their depot switches, and an administrator has to correct it then. So it's worth exporting UPNs rather than mail addresses.

OK, we'll export UPNs.

Closing.
