Posted on 24 Oct 2023 04:12:37 by WORSLEP

Hi experts,

I am trying to use the action "Send HTTP request V2" to retrieve user details based on Id.

Currently I am using the URI:

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users?$filter=Id eq <'Id'>

This results in the error:

URI path is not a valid Graph endpoint, path is neither absolute nor relative or resource/object is not supported for this connector. Resources: groups. Uri: https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users?$filter=Id eq 'XXXXXX'

I need to be able to determine a user by user id as I only have user id or display name available to me via Power Virtual Agent. I can not use display name as it is not unique.

Any help appreciated.

Hi @CFernandes ,

I ended up implementing an alternate solution.

The PVA Bot hand off is Display Name and User ID. I used Display Name in a "Serach for Users" action. I then used the result of the search in a filter array filtered to where the UserId = BOT User ID. The output of the filter array means I have the correct user based on User ID.

Thanks for your help

Hey @WORSLEP

You will need to request your Admin to Edit the DLP policy and whitelist the AzureAD connector...

or details on how to change\edit the DLP policy see - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/admin/prevent-data-loss#edit-a-dlp-policy

Thanks @CFernandes ,

Unfortunately, when I try to use "Invoke an HTTP request" I get the following.

I don't suppose you have any other options I could try?

Thanks
