when a user logs into DataHub via OIDC is used to construct a unique identifier for the user on DataHub. The urn is computed as:
<code>urn:li:corpuser:&lt;extracted-username&gt;</code></p><p>By default, the email address will be the username extracted from the Identity Provider. For information about customizing
the claim should be treated as the username in Datahub, check out the <a href="/docs/authentication/guides/sso/configure-oidc-react">OIDC Authentication</a> documentation.</p></blockquote><h1>Static Credential Configuration File (Self-Hosted Only)</h1><p>User credentials can be managed via a <a href="/docs/authentication/guides/jaas">JaaS Authentication</a> configuration file containing

Adding users via the <code>user.props</code> will require disabling existence checks on GMS using the <code>METADATA_SERVICE_AUTH_ENFORCE_EXISTENCE_ENABLED=false</code> environment variable or using the API to enable the user prior to login.
