NextCloud uses a UUID for an LDAP user's username?

ℹ️ Support

I have NextCloud pulling in one user account from JumpCloud, an LDAP server. I noticed that the entry displayed in /settings/users for this user shows the username as a UUID. NextCloud’s LDAP login filter includes uid=%uid and JumpCloud uses uid as the username.

I assume NextCloud generated the UUID and is using this for the username? I dumped the LDAP data in JumpCloud and the uid property for the user is definitely the username, not a UUID.

The base DN for my users in JumpCloud is:

uid=<USERNAME>,ou=Users,o=<ORG>,dc=jumpcloud,dc=com

Thanks
