How to connect Azure AD with PowerApps forms

Question

I am creating a Leave Request form on PowerApps and i want to connect it with Azure AD of my organization. The scenario is: 1. User fills up the form of Leave Request 2. The "Employee Name" and "Department" fields should be called by itself in the text box. I want to call these identities from Azure AD.

How can i perform this?

Answer 1

As far as I know, it is not available to connect to Azure AD to get the data in the PowerApps.

However it is able to get the user information using the User().FullName function to get the current username. If you also want it support to retrieve the department of current user, you may submit the feedback from here.

Answer 2

There is a system called Microsoft Flows where you can interface between Azure AD and your PowerApps application. I've been using it and albeit the fact that it's new and a little buggy, it's a possible solution for your problem.
