2.3 Support for International Characters

CloudAccess supports the use of international characters in values for identity attributes, except where the related identity source or application does not allow them. The international character can cause the authentication-related CloudAccess transaction to fail. For example, CloudAccess might be unable to provision a user’s application account, to create a new account in an SSUS identity source, or to allow access to Simple Proxy accounts that use identity injection. 

Table 2-3 identifies the identity attributes for external components that do not support using international characters.
