 Several challenges exist in provisioning users for a growing company across systems and applications. It can be time-consuming, error-prone, challenging to sync users across domains, and potentially a security risk to keep track of existing profiles.

In the **Profile** tab, click **Edit** in the **Attributes** pane. Change the `firstName` field to "Leo", and update their `login` and `email` to `leo.anderson@fake.domain`. Use the **Save** button at the bottom of the page to save your changes. Again, on the Swagger UI, double-check Tom's updated name by making a GET /scim/v2/users request to list all current users.
