> So if our user accounts don’t have usernames and we just supply the email address in the `username` field of the SSO payload it will behave as it did previously?

Yes, that should work. But it’s better to avoid generating usernames from emails because in this case, it’s easy to figure out emails of your users. This is insecure.

Note, that you can also send a full name in the **name** field to SSO. If you do so:

- **name** will become the full name of a user on your Discourse
- **name** will be used by SSO for generating username
