Modifying Users

Identity Domain Administrators may modify users' first name and last name. If you use the email ID as the user name of the user, to modify the email address or user name, you must delete the user and then add the user with the appropriate email or user name. If you do not use the email ID as the user name of the user, you may modify the email address, but not the user name.

Only primary email address of the user can be updated through EPM Automate and REST API. To update the recovery email address, use Oracle Cloud Console (IAM).

In OCI (Gen 2) environments, changes to first name, last name, and email ID (if not used as user name) are reflected in about five minutes after any user logs in.

In Classic environments, changes to first name, last name, and email ID (if not used as user name) are reflected only after one of the following occurs:

• A Service Administrator changes a predefined role assignment of any user. In this case, updates are reflected in about five minutes after any user signs in.
• The environment is recreated using the recreate EPM Automate command.
