Posted on by Everart_Araujo

Hello folks,

I am trying to automate our onboarding process but can't find a solution to add this information when using "Create user", I am not a pro power automation user but I guess it is possible to automate "Employee type and Manager" maybe using customizable extension attribute from "Update user".

Any help would be really appreciated 🙏🙏

Hi @Everart_Araujo,

A workaround could be to create the user via Graph API instead. With this approach you can add fields like employeeType in the body.

Below is an example

This setup uses a HTTP action which is part of a premium connector and also requires you to setup an app in azure ad with the correct Graph API permissions.

{ "accountEnabled": true, "displayName": "Roger Federer", "mailNickname": "roger", "userPrincipalName": "roger@contoso.onmicrosoft.com", "passwordProfile" : { "forceChangePasswordNextSignIn": true, "password": "yourcustompassword" }, "employeeType": "Best tennis player of all time" }

Thank's for your reply, I am using a Form to collect the responses and have 0 knowledge about Graph API, in that case, can you point a tutorial so I can get started with Graph Api and Azure add?

Thanks for your help mate🙏

Hi @Everart_Araujo,

Elaiza Benitez has written a nice blogpost about setting app an application for using Graph API in a Power Automate flow, How to authenticate as an application with Microsoft Graph API with flow.
