In Portal, users are displayed with their "user name". In our organization, this is some arbitrary combination of letters and number like user12345.

It would be helpful and relevant for the user experience if we could set up Portal to show either

  • First/Lastname
  • Full name (from the AD integration)
  • Email
  • Username

instead. At least have this information in a hint/hover popup on the username as displayed today..

This would be required for all spots and places where the user name is being displayed today: In all the element lists as well as the elements information page and so on.

Yes, we need more control on how ArcGIS displays user account names.
In Addition to what is listed above, it should be possible to hide and/or replace a user name shown as owner of items or groups by assigning "alias names" for specific/all accounts. This would also have the benefit of no longer exposing internal account names to external users (for security reasons).
