# Mapping Adobe Username to Email Address

# Introduction

Use the user-to-email-adobe.map file to map a user name to the Adobe user's account email address.

When the user name and the user name in the email address do not match, you can use this to map the vendor license name to the user's usage.

Apply the configurations shown in the Open iT server.

Open user-to-email-adobe.map in the Configuration directory, which is by default in C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\Configuration.
Specify the username and email to map with the following syntax:
Mapping Syntax
```
MAP: user1@openit.com
user1
```
Empty lines are allowed — any line beginning with # as the first non-whitespace character is considered a comment. Globbing is also supported, allowing you to use several globbing patterns; however, remember that they are slower than exact matches. To make your mapping files more effective and efficient, refer to the Optimize Rules to Speed-up Rename or Mapping page.

In the mapping file, entries are case-insensitive, meaning that capitalization variations, such as 'User' and 'user', will be recognized as identical. Also, note that leading and trailing spaces are removed from entries.
Example
```
MAP: jamespeter@openit.com
jpeter
```
This example maps the email jamespeter@openit.com to the user name jpeter.

You can also include custom configurations in this mapping file, such as default mapping, setting date limits on specific mapping entries, or creating nested maps.
Save the changes.

The mapping file will only affect the data collected after configuring. To apply the mapping for historical data, you need to regenerate that data. This process will help ensure that all your information is aligned and accurate.

Proceed with data regeneration after configuring all the necessary mapping files to apply the changes in the real-time and historical reports.
