+1What are the best practices for legal name changes for staff when utilizing Google Workspace and JAMF Connect?
If you change the Google Workspace account name, JAMF Connect creates a new user on the users Macbook when they log in with that new account. How would I effeciently sync the new google account to the previous user account. I have read the Unmigrating a local Account post, but not sure how that helps with linking the new google account to that unmigrated account now.
+26Technically since the local account won’t be able to be changed, it seems that a good migration assistant needs to happen for the “new” local user account (shortname).
Otherwise, keep the short name/email address/UPN and only change the vanity/display name.
+16I haven’t tried this in a long time and don’t know if it still works, but can you alias the new account to the old account on the Mac?
+26I’m thinking symlinks may work with proper permissions, but you’re inviting yourself to bad juju when something breaks.
