How to Find an Employee’s MyID

UGA employees may have two email addresses: an alias email address and a MyID email address. DAR forms—including GAIL access requests, UGAF@Work access requests, and Professional Development requests—require the employee’s MyID@uga.edu email address.

Use Microsoft Teams to find an employee’s MyID email address and distinguish it from their alias.

  1. Search for the employee. In Microsoft Teams, enter the employee’s name in the search bar.

  2. Open a chat. Select the employee from the search results to open their chat window.

  3. Open their profile. Click the employee’s name at the top of the chat. Alternatively, hover over their name and select Profile in the window that appears.

  4. Find their MyID email address. On the employee’s contact card, locate Contact information and compare the Email and Chat fields:

    • Chat: Displays the employee’s MyID@uga.edu email address. Use this address on DAR forms.

    • Email: If this address differs from the Chat address, it is the employee’s alias email address.

If both fields display the same address, use that address on the form.
