    <description>&lt;P&gt;1. No, the external ID is not local only. It is persisted on the&amp;nbsp;Dropbox servers.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;2. It's not possible to set the external ID manually via the&amp;nbsp;Dropbox web site. You can use the API to set it programmatically. With the Java SDK, that's done via&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-java/api-docs/v3.0.x/com/dropbox/core/v2/team/DbxTeamTeamRequests.html#membersAdd-java.util.List-" target="_self"&gt;membersAdd&lt;/A&gt; or&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-java/api-docs/v3.0.x/com/dropbox/core/v2/team/DbxTeamTeamRequests.html#membersSetProfileBuilder-com.dropbox.core.v2.team.UserSelectorArg-" target="_self"&gt;membersSetProfileBuilder&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>How can I use the externalId of a TeamMemberProfile (Java API) ?</title>
      <link>https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/How-can-I-use-the-externalId-of-a-TeamMemberProfile-Java-API/m-p/334026#M19504</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;I discovered the field externalId in the class com.dropbox.core.v2.team.MemberProfile and I would like to use it to identify a team member with an "App related ID" (exactly the purpose of externalId as described in the Java-doc).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The only way I could find to set this "externalId" is with a&amp;nbsp; MemberProfile constructor,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;and also, it's a "final field";&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;So my questions are:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;1. is this info. only local (and not persistent) to the java app?, or is it kept somewhere in Dropbox?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2.&amp;nbsp; if answer to 1. is no,&amp;nbsp; how can this info. be set?, preferably using the dropbox web(browser) gui&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;3. if answer to 1 is yes, what can be used to achieve a persistent and team-admin manageable kind of team-user aliasing ?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
