I believe I have found a work around for this. Currently "server_set_id" (authenticated_id) is set to the users email address, which comes from the database query. I simply changed the query to return "<email address>:x:y:z" and then I can just use a macro and replace where I normally use authenticated_id:

AUTH_ID = ${extract{1}{:}{${lc:$authenticated_id}}}

and then pull other values I need later:

${if >{foo}${extract{2}{:}{$authenticated_id}}} ...


Not sure of any caveats or implications, but seems to work fine.
