The FortiGate Cloud admin may be displayed with a random or different username. This is by design and can be disabled per-user in the FortiGate Cloud portal if required. Refer to the following KB article: Technical Tip: FortiGate Cloud admin displaying a random or different username.
 
Notes:
  1. Starting from v7.0.14, v7.2.8, and v7.4.2, read-and-write cloud access rights will require a paid FortiGate Cloud subscription. A free subscription only entitles users to read-only access.
  2. Starting from FortiGate Cloud 26.1.0, devices with a FortiCare Premium license will have read/write access for remote management. Running automations and scripts will still require a FortiGate Cloud paid subscription. Refer to these FortiGate Cloud 26.1 Release notes: New Features and Updates.
