Description
Your Rocket.Chat version: (0.62.1 snap)
My settings are as follows:LDAP>User Data Field Map
{"#{company}":"customFields.company", " #{title}":"customFields.title", "#{initials}":"customFields.initials"}
When I logged in for the first time , MongoDB as follows
....
"requirePasswordChange" : false,
"customFields" : {
"initials" : "80088"
}
}
When I logged in the second time:
....
"requirePasswordChange" : false,
"customFields" : {
"company" : "MY Company Name",
"title" : " Senior System Administrator"
}
}
When I logged in for the third time:
....
"requirePasswordChange" : false,
"customFields" : {
"initials" : "80088"
}
}
This seems to be going on in a regular loop, and it also causes us to show the user's field. Is anyone aware of this problem?
thanks

Research direction
Start with the LDAP > User Data Field Map setting and reproduce the behavior across three logins while inspecting the MongoDB customFields document after each login. Trace the LDAP login path that applies these mappings; done means all mapped fields persist together instead of alternating between groups.
