Graph - EmployeeLeaveDateTime not possible to set

Question

Hello,

We are trying to add the attribute "employeeLeaveDateTime" to a user via Graph.

We have followed the documentation from Microsoft (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/tutorial-lifecycle-workflows-set-employeeleavedatetime?tabs=powershell):

Connect-MgGraph -Scopes "User.Read.All", "User-LifeCycleInfo.ReadWrite.All"
Select-MgProfile -Name "v1.0"

$UserId = "528492ea-779a-4b59-b9a3-b3773ef6da6d"
$employeeLeaveDateTime = "2022-09-30T23:59:59Z"
    
Update-MgUser -UserId $UserId -EmployeeLeaveDateTime $employeeLeaveDateTime
$User = Get-MgUser -UserId $UserId
$User.EmployeeLeaveDateTime


Unfortunately, the date is not set...
The Code "Select-MgProfile" is not working , maybe thats why we are having Problems?

We would be very happy about your support!

Hi @RobNow,

This issue may be caused by you not installing or updating the 'Microsoft.Graph.Authentication' module. This module contains Select-MgProfile and other commands related to connecting to the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK.

To resolve this issue, you can try the following steps:

• Open PowerShell and run the Install-Module Microsoft.Graph.Authentication command to install or update the 'Microsoft.Graph.Authentication' module.
• Restart PowerShell and run the Import-Module Microsoft.Graph.Authentication command to import the module.

Get this module:

Hi,

For Get-MgUser to return the values you need to request them! like this:

$User = Get-MgUser -UserID $UserId -Property UserPrincipalName, EmployeeLeaveDateTime
$User.EmployeeLeaveDateTime
