Hi!
We would like to implement a naming policy that adds custom attribute number 14 from Azure AD as a prefix. Is that possible? What is the syntax for fetching that custom attribute?
Would you say it is safe to add the naming policy in a production environment even though it is still in Public Beta and not GA?
AFAIK, the Azure AD naming policy doesn't take a custom attribute into account when it constructs names. This would be easy to do with PowerShell by updating the DisplayName attribute with whatever's in CustomAttribute14 after a group exists.
And it is safe to use the policy. All it's doing is making sure that the DisplayName attribute is correctly populated. You can do that yourself or let the policy do it.
