SSO ID Restrictions

What are the restricted characters for an SSO ID?  Are there any?  Also what is the max length of characters?

  • We recently ran into some issues with SSO and IDs.  Some things in the platform assume a Lithium ID will contain characters in the space of letters, numbers, and special characters, such as dashes or underscores.  However, you don't have to limit yourself to that.  If you are okay with using user IDs, then you can make other characters work (e.g., '@').  There are also some fields that limit login names to 15 characters.  I'm  not sure if larger ones work.  We've tried to stay within that limitation.
