Azure AD B2C Username policy for non English Characters

Question

We are using Azure AD B2C and want to be able to allow users to SignUp using non-english characters as their Azure AD B2C username.

Is there a way to allow ANY language characters as the Azure AD B2C username?

Is there a way to only allow Russian, Chinese, Korean, Japanese characters as the Azure AD B2C username?

Answer 1

Hello @Tarkowski, Michael (M.) ,

Unfortunately, as of now Azure AD B2C only supports Alphanumerical characters and you cannot signup or sign-in with usernames containing non-alphanumeric values. Username is an attribute that is an Internet-style login name for a user based on the Internet standard RFC 822.

I found the similar feature request "Allow non-alphanumeric characters in usernames" already raised in Uservoice on the feedback forum. If interested, you may upvote it. In general, Azure feature or product team would check feasibility of a feature request, prioritize against existing feature backlog, add them in roadmap as appropriate and would announce and/or update the related Azure document once a feature request is addressed.

Hope above answers your question.
