Hi,

I am a beginner. And i have an empty canvas with a combobox on it called PeoplePicker. I have set this function for the PeoplePicker: office365users.searchuser({searchTerm:PeoplePicker.SearchText}). I have set multiple textboxes for getting

the properties like: jobtitle, emailadres, department etc... It al works fine. Only I need to get the property "Manager" too

Hi @PeKi72 ,
You can use to get the manager name:
Office365Users.Manager("<user_email>").DisplayName

Hi @PeKi72 ,
Enter the user email over here where I have wrote user_email.
Example:
Office365Users.Manager("someone@example.com").DisplayName
Replace the email with your valid email

Hi,
I have a peoplepicker on my form and when I choose a user with the peoplepicker
the name of the manager must be display in another label.
I have tried:
'Office365-gebruikers'.ManagerV2(PeoplePicker.Selected.DisplayName).displayName
Office365Users.Manager({searchTerm:PeoplePicker.SearchText}).DisplayName
But no luck

How can I get the manager of the user I select in the peoplepicker in the label called txtLabel ?
