Maybe the field name (student id) you are getting from M$ is not quite what you expect e.g. you map id but the response has the field name as userid etc - just a thought.

Assuming that you have the auth_oauth2 | field_lock_idnumber setting on the default 'unlocked' or even the 'unlocked if empty' - my next move would be to examine the OAuth2 code (not easy).

Looks like you will have to dig into the source code.

Hi,

What I meant is you will need to look at the OAuth code to try and work out why your id numbers are not being mapped correctly. I would start in the /lib/classes/oauth2/ folder, particularly /lib/classes/oauth2/api.php - http://xref-diff.mukudu-dev.net/moodle311/lib/classes/oauth2/api.php.source.html.

Hi Ellis,
Should I be checking any specific function? Currently, I am unable to figure out which function is actually giving user field mapping data. It would be of great help ,pin point the function name.

The mapping is done in the map_userinfo_to_fields() function in lib/classes/oauth2/client.php.  It is called by get_userinfo() function which in turn is called by the complete_login() function in auth/oauth2/classes/auth.php.  Hope that helps.
