EntraCP - WorkEmail property remain blank when adding user through the People Picker.

[uday30980]

Hello Yvand,

WorkEmail property remain blank when adding user through the People Picker to the SharePoint site. This will trigger an issue that the email invitation will not send out. Here below is the image of the existing working Claims types configuration settings where PickerEntity Metadata remains blank since the EDIT link option not working due to the Javascript error that you have confirmed in earlier issue#220

Since you have confirmed that the "EDIT" link is not working due to some javascript error and it will not be available untill next release which will not happened now but may be in less than 3 months and so is it possible to update that highlighted PickerEntity data to Email using Powershell or some other way?

@uday30980 you will fine the script below, but please make sure first that it does what you intend before executing it. Looking at your screenshot, it seems wrong to map the UPN claim type with the property 'Mail'

Add-Type -AssemblyName ('Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=16.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c')
Add-Type -AssemblyName "Yvand.EntraCP, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=65dc6b5903b51636"
$config = [Yvand.EntraClaimsProvider.EntraCP]::GetConfiguration()
$settings = $config.Settings
$settings.ClaimTypes.GetByClaimType("http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/upn").EntityDataKey
$settings.ClaimTypes.GetByClaimType("http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/upn").EntityDataKey = [Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls.PeopleEditorEntityDataKeys]::Email.ToString()
$config.ApplySettings($settings, $true)

Thank you so much Yvand for your prompt reply. I am glad to inform you that I have run the above script that fixed the issue under ENTRACP.

Just a curosity to know if the same type of script available in AZURECP to update the PickerEntity Data to Email? We are currently using AZURECP People Picker and we are getting the same issue with Work Email property when user added to the SP Group and the Work Email remains blank.

@uday30980 you can use the same logic to apply the change in AzureCP, although it needs little adaptation. And you should upgrade to EntraCP :)
