# Access Linux targets with IdP username as target user

## `zli v. 6.17.4`

### New

* **Use your identity provider (IdP) username as the target user for Linux targets.** Access your Linux targets with your IdP username as the target user. For example, if your email is `foo@foobar.com`, this release allows you to access your Linux target as `foo`. To enable this feature, add `{username}` as one of the target users to any of your target connect policies.\
