Hello,

 

I have a combo box containing a list of users. And I'm trying to get the manager's email for the selected person. What I'm missing from the below formula? 

 

Office365Users.ManagerV2(SelectBox.Selected.Result).mail

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks,

Omi

    Depends...where are you putting this formula?

    And what are the following properties of your combobox - Items, DefaultSelectedItems?

    What is the items property of SelectBox?

    @RandyHayes 

     

    Distinct(SortByColumns(Filter('[database].[Desc]',Year=YearBox_1.Selected.Result).FullName,"FullName",Ascending),FullName)

    @omi18 

    So your FullName column then is a text column in your datasource.  You have no column with the email of whoever is "fullname"?

    @RandyHayes ,

     

    Yes, It is a text column. and no email for a full name.

    Okay, then you'll need to do a double call to the 365 user connector.

    With({_user: First(Office365Users.SearchUserV2({SearchTerm:SelectBox.Selected.Result, top:1).value)},
    
     Office365Users.ManagerV2(_user.Mail).mail
    
    )
