Hi Guys,
I am building my very first PowerApps so a bit novice at doing things.
I have a SharePoint list that I am building the App for, there are about a dozen options, most will be entered and completed by the user. But there are a couple that need to be autopopulated.
The auto-populated fields are like mobile number, office location, Position, Full name etc... All this information needs to be pulled in from AD and once a user hits new item then they should see all these fields already auto-populatied.
I have added Azure AD from as a data connection. I am not sure how to go and do the auto-population.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Hi @IntergenUser01,
Do you want to auto-populate some fields of SharePoint list when you create a new record in PowerApps app?
I have made a test on my side and please take a try with following workaround:
AzureAD.GetUser(User().Email).mobilePhone
If you want Full Name field to be auto-populated, similar way with above step, type the following formula in Full Name field:
Best regards,
Kris
Hi Kris, thanks heaps for your reply.
I will try this once I get the chance 🙂
Hi @v-xida-msft
I am getting the following permission error:
I am a sharepoint site collection admin, but perhaps not for Azure AD?
Is there any other way to autopopulate those fields, perhaps using the Sharepoint connector (as Sharepoint also has users profile information)?
Thanks!
I have tried another approach, but it still gives me problems. Please see:
