I have a feed that creates users and updates their profile fields from a 3rd party API. I'd like to be able to allow them to change their username and email address. However, if they change any of the profile fields on the 3rd party system, when the feed updates the user in Drupal it will always overwrite the email and username back to what exists on the 3rd party system. Is the a way to exclude the username and email fields from feed update imports. I realize I can do this if I create 1 feed to create users and then a 2nd feed to update users (with the email and username excluded in the 2nd feed). I like to keep it to a single feed if those fields can just be excluded with code.

Thank You
