+External Authentication : FAQ
+-----------------------------
+
+| Question          | Answer                        | References        |
+|-------------------|-------------------------------|-------------------|
+| Why am I no longer able to change the `rep:externalId`?               | Since Oak 1.5.8 the default sync mechanism properly protects the system maintained property `rep:externalId` which is used to link a given synced user/group account to the corresponding entry on the external IDP. | See [documentation](defaultusersync.html) and [OAK-4301] |
+| Why does a User or Group created with a content package not get synced with the IDP? | Only users/groups with a `rep:externalId` linking them to the external IDP will be respected during the default sync mechanism. | See also [OAK-4397] and [OAK-5304] |
