AD user details update

Long story short. I have a user in Azure AD that was originally created as a cloud only user. One of our other companies (Sprig Electric) created her a local account in their AD for a specific purpose and it matched up with her cloud account filling in a bunch of On-Premises information in her user. They had her in a synced OU which caused this. They removed her from the synced OU and we fixed her issues at that time. Fast forward to today, I am trying to SMTP match her cloud account to Parsons active directory, once I synced it up it never changed from cloud to synced. I dug deeper and found all this Sprig info in the On-Premises fields in her user properties. They are all greyed out, I need to find a way to Power-shell those attributes out of there so when I sync from my AD it matches up. I have to be careful because this is her main account in the cloud.

Can anyone help me on this?

    It seems like you may need to remove the existing ImmutableID from the account, so it's no longer considered "synced" and then possibly look into hard-matching the object to the other on-prem identity. Proceed with caution when performing such identity transformations. See the following references for more information:

    Set Immutable ID to $Null, Soft-Match/Hard-Match in O365
