ChrisW.11333 (Customer) asked a question.

I want to send an attribute in Attribute Statements section of SAML setup. I have this:

username unspecified ${f:substringBefore(user.email, “@”)}

And Okta won't accept it. What am I doing wrong? (The SP won't accept NameID as the username, only an attribute 'username').

Hi:

I have a similar question. The document referenced in this thread covers Okta expressions in app profiles (i.e., Universal Directory/Profile Editor) The question is about using expressions in SAML attribute statements, which may be different.

Any updates?

Thank you,

If you still need it... String.substringBefore(user.email,"@")
