Import a List of users from Azure AD Group

[JamesOxton]

Hi there,

Is it possible to import users from a group that is in Azure AD?  I need to pull in a list of users for a powerapp that can then be assigned to cases within the powerapp itself.  

Is this possible and whats the best way?

Many Thanks for any help!

Take a look at Office365Users() conenctor.

It connects to AD and you can see all the properties of an user if you have his ID or Email

https://powerapps.microsoft.com/en-us/tutorials/connection-office365-users/

You could have a field where users enter email and click verify which would have OnSelect property of:

UpdateContext(
  {
    _SelectedUser : Office365Users.UserProfile(TextInput.Text)
  }
)

Then you can use any user information available in your AD.

Hi @JamesOxton,

You could take use of the following function to get the group members in PowerApps:

AzureAD.GetGroupMembers("GroupId").value

This function would return a table of the available users within the same Azure AD group.

The formula above could be put into the items property of a dropdown, then you could take use of the Dropdown selected value to save the value needed.

For example, Dropdown.selected.value.

For downdown control, please check:

perfect exactly what I was looking at...

Darn, i really thought this would be the solution for a much needed form. I only want to display the names of a specifc group so the user can't select just any random person. Using this Azure formula is great but it requires everyone to be an Admin.  Have you found a simlar solution that works with Office265users? 

thanks, Joe.

Hi James,

Add Office365users connector to your app and add the following code into items property of dropdown list. It'll show you top 1000 Azure AD users display name in your app dropdown list.

Office365Users.SearchUser({searchTerm:"",top:100}).DisplayName

Thank you.

The problem is the AzureAD.GetGroupmembers() function is limited to 100 items so is the Office365Groups.ListGroupMembers() function

@v-micsh-msft Hi What is the limitation on number of users we can fetch in single query?

I want to fetch more than 1000 members from AD group in powerapps.

Thank You.
