Hello All, We have multiple source of truth feeding users into OKTA, we need to segragte the users imported form HRMS source one with the XAAS, e.g user fed from workday will be mapped to the default user type and users form the custom identity source should be mapped to a different user type, this should be mapped during the user import process. I tried including the type object id during the { "id": "sssssss"} bulk user import but the users are not mapped to the expected user type, I can update the user type post user creation but it has issue with workflows on how to differentiate the source of truth and move only the users created via XAAS. Any Suggestion?

Hello @GiridharanD.41770 (Customer) Thank you for posting on our Community page!
It seems that what you are seeing it's a limitation of how User Type works, and currently expected behaviour. As per our documentation: "Newly imported users are restricted to the default Okta user type."
