Hi there, I have been having trouble adding nickname to the user mask

Hi there,

I have been having trouble adding nickname to the user mask in the default-display-masks.xml located in ear\\suite.ear\\web.war\\WEB-INF\\conf\\components\\display\\ folder.

Following the naming conventions on forum.appian.com/.../Autocomplete, I have been able to add/test email and username masks but nickname does not seem to work.

I currently need this as a customer has many employees with the same first/last names and they wish to indentify through nicknames when managing the user accounts.

Here is the error that is logged when trying to search a user, while the nickname mask is enabled.

[stdout] (http--0.0.0.0-8080-2) java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: Unknown property 'nickname' on class 'class com.appiancorp.suiteapi.personalization.UserProfile'

Is there another naming convention for this mask? I have tried nickname, nickName, and NickName but none seem to work....

Can you please try displayName instead of nickName

That worked! Thanks!

Is there anyway to also mimic this on the auto complete portion below?
I understand in the autocomplete-config.xml adding a <param><displayProperty> allows you to search with the new param, so I assumed that to display the nickname in the suggested auto completes I would have to edit:
<mask><![CDATA[{firstName} {lastName} <{id}>]]></mask>
But this doesn't seem to be the case.
