ReportHello experts.
First, let me say how much I appreciate all of you for your time and energy you spend to help people, like me, with problems so we can learn.
Here's what has happened.
When I started with the company, 8 years ago, I was given an email address, eg, tsmith@thatcompanyus.com
I used this email addy to create my Microsoft login account where I created my Sharepoint site and started to create my Powerapps and PowerAuto flows. Everything was working well and I was learning a lot from you all.
Then a few months ago, the company changed their email address domain. So now my email would look like, eg. tom.smith@company.com. I didn't think anything of it at the time. BIG MISTAKE.
Everything in SharePoint was using the new email domain. However when I was logging in, I guess it was using the alias under the old domain. This is how I learned of the problem when I tried to filter the app. I wanted to filter the app by the 'Assigned Designer' who was logged in. I knew I was the assigned designer, and I knew I had projects but couldn't see them because the 'Assigned Designer'.Email did not equal User().Email.
I looked at my account on microsoft and saw the email issues (see the pic)
So, I don't have much faith in my IT department because this oversight just doesn't affect me. It affects the entire company because they will use the app too.
How do I approach these IT folks and lead them how to fix this problem? More importantly, how do I keep my PowerApps and PowerAutomate when they change this?
In the interim, is there a way to run the app so that the logged in user can see their assigned projects in the app?
I tried to set a variable OnStart that looks like Set(varUser, Substitute(User().Email,"thatcompanyus","company")) this doesn't seem to work.
Thank you for all that you do.
