Hello Grant,
It is my understanding that you previously had a domain for your organization.
Recently you have changed your domain to a new one.
The answer to your question would be that it depends on the way you have set
up your G Suite integration.
Okta requires creating an username in the format of an email address. Usually
the username is the same as the email address that the username has. When you
assign an application to a group and provisioning is enabled the users are
created automatically in G Suite.
So the usernames from Okta have been probably mapped to the old G Suite and
created as such. (e.g. in Okta username: username@olddomain.com resulted in
creating in GSuite username: username@olddomain.com)
As I understand your question is that if you can create usernames in the new G Suite
domain by mapping the usernames' email addresses in Okta to full usernames in G Suite
so that the usernames in Okta remain the same while the usernames in G Suite are changed.
(e.g. in Okta username: username@olddomain.com, email address: username@newdomain.com
needs to result in creating in Gsuite username: username@newdomain.com).
This can be achieved by going to Directory -> Profile Editor -> Clicking the new
GSuite Application Clicking on mappings on the right hand side -> Then selecting
the tab Okta to Gsuite -> Override with mappings -> Fill in user.email as an attribute
under the column Okta User Profile and map it to userName on the right hand side under
the G Suite New User Profile column.
As a solution this would bypass the need to modify the domain for the previously
created usernames in Okta. We do strongly recommend to try this on your preview account
first.
On the other hand if your usernames in Okta are already changed to the new domain and
the new domain is set up in G Suite as well you will have to set up a new integration
for the G Suite application in Okta.
If you require further assistance please open up a case with our Support Team and we
would be happy to provide you with more information.
Best regards,
Cosmin Nita
