Question

employeeLeaveDateTime attribute value shows as Null when queried via graph explorer

Carl Love 0

I have employeeLeaveDateTime mapped to msDS-cloudExtensionAttribute2 in Entra with inbound/outbound sync rules. When I set the the value in AD the sync processes without errors, but when I query via graph explorer the value is null. Looking at the metaverse object properties I would expect the employeeLeaveDateTime to return a value via graph Get request. The account I'm using to query via graph explorer has Global Admin privs. LeaveDateTimeInboundSycRule

You will be able to read this value only by using the Microsoft graph PowerShell as mentioned in the documentation:

Hello @Carl Love

I wanted to follow up to see if you’ve had a chance to review the answer provided by Menouar Khiat.

To read this property in delegated scenarios, the admin needs one of the following Azure AD roles: Lifecycle Workflows Administrator, Global Reader, or Global Administrator. To write this property in delegated scenarios, the admin needs the Global Administrator role.

Additionally, it looks like you have set a value for the employeeLeaveDateTime property. You can try calling with Beta
https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/users/{User Id}?$select=employeeLeaveDateTime ?$select=employeeLeaveDateTime

users/{user id}?$select=employeeLeaveDateTime graph API.
