Hello,
My company is syncing/syndicating user profiles from 3 regional M365 tenants, to a single "global" tenant - which we're using for a company-wide SharePoint and Teams (etc.).
Our test case so far has seen us successfully sync in 700+ user accounts from tenant A to tenant B. However, although all the profile data has been synced as part of the process, the user profile pictures haven't. This means on SharePoint, where we have pages using the "People" web part (as one example) they look very bland. Several stakeholders have asked when their profile pictures will be appearing in SharePoint.
I'm assuming the standard way of synchronising/syndicating users between tenants does not include the profile picture?
If so, is there another way of doing it? I was thinking that we could use PowerShell to connect to tenant A - fetch the profile picture of a user, and then write it to the equivalent account in tenant B. Is that a viable approach?
Or, is there something we could do with a Power Automate flow, triggered when a profile is first synced, which would then fetch the user's picture from their "home" tenant, and upload it to their user account on the "global" tenant?
Any info or ideas would be much appreciated.
Alternatively, is there a direct link that someone can use, in SharePoint - to upload their profile picture on the "second" tenant (i.e. the tenant their account has been syndicated to)?
Thank you,
Steve.
