Hi,

In need of some assistance with displaying the "Created By" column in a gallery with a DataSource being a Dataverse table.

I placed the below formular in the default property of a textinput in the gallery.

Office365Users.UserProfileV2(ThisItem.'Created By'.User).displayName

The error I receive is as below:

Any assistance will be appreciated.

Regards,

Why do you need the Office365 Connector? Why don't you just do the following:

ThisItem.'Created By'.'Full Name'

You don’t need the connector unless you want to display the created by user’s name as it is stored in Entra ID, which may be different than Dataverse’s.

If you insist on retrieving the name via the connector, pass it the user’s email address.

Office365Users.UserProfileV2(ThisItem.'Created By'.'Primary Email').displayName

be sure to add the ‘Users’ table to your app so it can retrieve user info.
