Power Apps Get User Manager

#PowerApps
Learn how to get the manager of a user easily in Power Apps with the Office 365 Users connector. This is a standard (free) connector that lets you return all kinds of data about your users. I'll walk you through how to use it in Power Apps to return a user's manager and how to pre-populate a person or group field in SharePoint in your Power Apps form with that manager information.

Great stuff...I worked through populating the manager which correctly disllays, but when I submit my item, it is causing a network wrror when using patch function. Have you seen this when running through this process?

Hi April great content but I am looking to see if there is a way to have a person field on your form that a user would fill in a person and then we could look up that users Division and Title? I don't want to do for the current user but for the user filled into the form at run time.

Interesting. Did the video cut out where you fixed the errors in the logic?

Hi April, great video and following from this would you be able to advise on how you can build a search (gallery/dropdown/combobox) that will list all the Managers in an Org using the Office365 users connector? Assuming that you can someone link into the DirectReports function but I haven't worked out how to do it. Your help would be appreciated! :)

Hi April, how would you go about extending this so that if the user does not have a manager listed, they could only select someone else as a manager from a select group of people defined in an AD or M365 group?
