Change a member's display name

Manage display name synchronization
Enable display name synchronization
When display name synchronization is enabled, the display name set by the management account is synchronized to the member's account and becomes visible there, for example, as a salutation in email notifications.
Log on to the Resource Management console with a management account.
-
In the left navigation pane, choose .
-
In the Member Display Name Synchronization section, click Enable.
For example, after you enable this feature, if you change a member's display name to Test_Account, the salutation shown in message notifications for the member is also Test_Account.
Disable display name synchronization
After you disable this feature, display names set by the management account are visible only within the Resource Directory and are no longer synchronized to member accounts.
Disabling synchronization does not clear previously synchronized information.
Log on to the Resource Management console with a management account.

In the left navigation pane, choose .
-
In the Member Display Name Synchronization section, click Disable.
Change a member's account name (secure email address)
When a member is created, Resource Directory automatically generates a placeholder email address (e.g., <prefix>@aliyunid.rd-xxx.com) as the account name. Replace this placeholder with a real, accessible email address. This address serves as the account's security email for identity verification and important notifications.

A verification email will be sent to the new address. You must click the verification link in the email within 24 hours to confirm the change.

Open the email and click the verification link to confirm the change.
After confirmation, the member's name and security email address are both updated.
