When onboarding our users to Azure (With Azure Orchestration) one, among other things, that are requiered in the form is Reporting Manager. We’ve now tried to get the Reporting manager assigned to the manager field (with App action Assign Manager) on the user in Azure, but it fails. 

The System Message when I check the log is: “Resource 'FirstnameLastname<firstname.lastname@email.com>' does not exist or one of its queried reference-property objects are not present”

 

Anyone know how we could get this to work?

 

Thanks

Matt

Hey @Matt Hwhat value are you getting back for “Reporting Manager”? It could be that you are trying to send JohnSmith<John.Smith@email.com> as a string to Azure instead of just John Smith, or John.Smith@email.com. I have had this happen with placeholders and can be fixed by verifying the contents of the placeholder and utilizing liquid filters if necessary to get the right value Azure is looking for.

Hope this helps! Take care.

Thanks for the suggestion. Yes it is seemingly that it send FirstnameLastname to Azure. So I will have to get it to only use “Firstname Lastname” or the email address. I will take a look at Liquid Filters.
