Lowercase transformation for user email address

Blancco Management Portal requires user email address to be provided in lower case characters. Upper case characters within the users email address will prevent the system from working correctly. To mitigate this additional transformation rule needs to be created to treat the email address in lower case characters.

Below steps explain how to set up the needed transformation rule for the email address claim in Entra ID:

  1. Open the Enterprise Application dedicated for the BMP SSO and navigate to "Single sign-on" and then to "Attributes & Claims" and edit the claims.
  2. Open and edit the "emailaddress" claim (value set to user.mail) available under the "Additional Claims" section and change claims "Source" to "Transformation".
  3. In the "Manage transformation" dialog configure settings as follows:
    1. Transformation - ToLowercase()
    2. Parameter 1 - Attribute
    3. Attribute name - user.mail

  4. Save the changes.
