💻 Environment/Context
- Configure
- Teams & players
- External ID
- Advanced settings
❓ Issue/Question
- I would like to grant access to the A.S.O. Médias account type, to the advanced setting of the athlete page to edit the external ID.
- A user needs to populate or edit the External ID on a player profile, but the field is greyed out and shows the message “You can't edit external IDs because they are managed by integrations”.
👌 Resolution/Answer
- If the platform has an active roster integration (such as SportRadar), player
External IDsare managed by the integration and cannot be edited manually. - If no roster integration is active, a player's
External IDcan be edited from the player's Advanced Settings.

🥚 Cause
- By default, External IDs are locked when player profiles are managed through an integration. This helps ensure data consistency and prevents identifiers synced from external systems from being modified manually.
