# Mapping Autodesk Email Address to Username

# Introduction

The autodesk-email-to-user-name.map and autodesk-email-to-user-name-ad.map are used to map Autodesk user's email address to the username in the organization. Configure this mapping file to be able to combine the LicPoll and Autodesk cloud data.

The autodesk-email-to-user-name-ad.map should be created from the Active Directory mapping source.

# Configuring autodesk-email-to-user-name.map

1. Open autodesk-email-to-user-name.map in the Configuration directory, which is by default in C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\Configuration.

2. Specify the username and email to map with the following syntax:

   Mapping Syntax

   MAP: user1
   user1@openit.com

   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: liam.peters
   liampeters@openit.com

   This example maps liampeters@openit.com to liam.peters.

   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.

3. 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.
