Hi Community,

I need a DropDown that contains a list of all office D365 Users and default of the dropdown set to the user that is using the PowerApps.

I tried this function in the Item: Office365Users.SearchUser({searchTerm:""}).DisplayName but it doesn't work. I think it's because the search term is looking for blank value but I am not too sure how to get rid of that part and just return a list of names.

Please help, thank you.

it strange it not working for you.
Office365Users.SearchUser({searchTerm:""}).DisplayName works, but if not try a collection
Create a collection:
ClearCollect(MyUsers,Office365Users.SearchUser({searchTerm:""}).DisplayName)

Then use the collection name in the Dropdown:
MyUsers

Thank you. Still not showing any values. I am wondering if it could be something to do with my access of the office365 list. I will check on that. Thank you.

My original formula worked all the sudden. For some reasons, it wasn't loading the names. However, it is not showing every available names, only showing the names start with A. I am guessing it's because the list is too long.

You can try it on a combobox instead of dropdown
