Pulling attributes from Azure AD user accounts, custom

Question

My user accounts are setup with on premise AD servers but sync to Azure AD. I need a custom application to query Azure AD to get some standard field like name, manager, etc. I also need to have it pull custom attributes from on prem OR custom attributes from Azure AD. Custom attribute examples are team, group, team number, etc. Not sure where to put the custom attributes yet, depends on the solution that I can get to query them. Can someone explain or send me to the link that best fits this scenario? Been looking at Azure AD APIs but not finding great documentation thus far.

Thanks

You probably want to use the graph api then.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/azure-ad-overview?view=graph-rest-1.0

Here is also a link to the get user part

If you are using adconnect it's possible to also sync custom attributes to azure. Graph should be able to query them too, but using non extension attributes makes your life a lot easier.
