Add/Edit Username Post Account Creation

If a user logs in with device id, and then links their device to Facebook (essentially creating an account with no entered data), the ability to set their username/display name without adding a password is needed. Adding a password would then defeat the purpose of having the Facebook linking.

Yes, you would use the Title Display Name for this:

Is there anyway for display names to reflect in PlayFab's online game manager? The players list generally displays only usernames, and even the emails don't show up unless the actual player itself is clicked on.

When you're looking at a player profile in the Game Manager, the "Username" field contains the player's Username, while the "Display name" field contains the player's Title Display Name. On the Players tab, when you're looking at the list of all recently signed in players, the "Name" column uses the Username if one exists (since that's the primary identifier across your tiltes), and it uses the Title Display Name otherwise. Is your request then to have the Players tab contain additional columns of info, so that it shows all three (Username, Title Display Name, and email)?

I suppose that's precisely what I'm looking for! Although email currently doesn't show anything on that list.
