Use email as accountname?

Hello,

I would like to use email as account name.

I tested it and it works but it’s recommended or not ?

I have noticed that cloud_id is like "toto@gmail.com@mydomain.com"

Is there an impact or can have issue ?

Hi @Benoit01,

It works and there is no technical issue with it.

The cloud_id of toto@gmail.com@mydomain.com looks odd but is correct: Nextcloud builds the cloud_id as username@yourserver, and since your username already contains an @, you end up with two of them. This is purely cosmetic — federation and sharing work fine with it.
