REST-API - supported user name formats
Hi, Do we need to support a format of user name like "profile\user" for REST-API authentication? (if you're not familiar with the term profile, I can ask the same about "domain\user" I see in the code it exists, but I was wonder whether it is really needed. Thanks for any thoughts on this, Yair

iirc, we only support the upn format for the rest api. assuming any authentication provider can be treated as a domain, and qualify for the upn format - why would we add the domain\user format?

I tend to agree, I was asking to see if someone has other knowledge.

domain\user authentication support is a relic from 2.x probably. considering we are planning to move the gui to the rest api, worth highlighting its going to be deprecated from the gui as well probably.
