Obtain user's division

Hello,
We are trying to obtain the user's attribute "division" in Microsoft's Graph, which I believe is within employeeOrgData.
We tested a few configuration but we always get a null response or not at all, such as:
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/{mail}?$select=id,employeeOrgData
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/{mail}?$select=id,employeeOrgData.division

and a few more. The user we are testing with has that information in their Azure's personal information.

Kind regards,
Bernardo

    Hi @Bernardo J. Díaz , I test locally and meet the same error as you mentioned, and I can resolve it by using UpdateUser endpoint to set the employeeOrgData property.
    Hope this can help. Best Wishes.

    UpdateUser endpoint: PATCH https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/{id / userPrincipalName}

    Hello @Zehui Yao_MSFT ,
    Thank you for your answer. Is it possible in any way to do this process from Azure's interface?
    It is to make it easier for our client.

    Kind regards.

    Hey @Bernardo J. Díaz
    These GraphAPI calls return the individual employeeOrgData subAttributes 

    https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/users/{userUPN}/employeeOrgData/division  
https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/users/{userUPN}/employeeOrgData/costCenter

    What I can't seem to figure out is how to provision those subAttributes to a SCIM app.
