Google Workspace Archiving in Moodle

Question

I built a simple Moodle LMS, I added Google Auth for login, only users in my Google Workspace can log into this website and it works fine. Every user has a field "Employee Type" but the problem is in Moodle, I cannot map this field in my Moodle. I found the Google Auth menu to map the data but I don't know the field name that contains the employee data type. Is there any way I can get this data in my Moodle?

Answer 1

Depends on the plugin, but most authentication plugins have a "Field Mapping" or "Data Mapping" option

https://docs.moodle.org/35/en/Managing_authentication#Profile_fields_data_mapping_and_locking

1. First create user profile fields through "Site Management" > "Users" > "User Profile Fields"

Example: text input and short nameemptype

2. Then go to your plugin settings via Site Administration > Plugins > Authentication > I will use the LDAP server settings as an example

3. There is an option to map the data of the custom field emptype as follows:

4. If the authentication plugin does not have the option to map fields, you need to modify the code
