I would like to know if there is a way to sync moodle's mdl_user.id field with my external db user table primary key, so that I have a way to match records in the two databases. Thanks for any help.
The way you are 'supposed' to sovle this in Moodle is to put the external db's primary key value in Moodle's user.idnumber field.
Well, I am doing that now. The problem is that I am using the External tool and when i launch it I need a way to map my userid to moodle's. The idnumber field unfortunately it not sent witht the Post back to my system..
Hey Heath,
Did you ever find a solution for this?
