reportRoot: getEmailActivityUserDetail

Question

You claim that the User Principal Name should appear when using this end point but of recent all we seem to be getting is the GUID:

2021-09-01,4A3BD27BC5E5EC209A8897A9E92D775A,,False,,,0,0,0,0,No,7
2021-09-01,7B503C6E4D583D8C1D216D2C3DC837BE,2021-09-01,False,,MICROSOFT 365 E3,0,128,25,4,No,7
2021-09-01,4E6B27D83AB4BCEDFF1998A2354D34B5,2021-09-01,False,,MICROSOFT 365 E3,0,259,3,5,No,7

I am sure something is broken :-(

Thanks

Answer 1

This is by design. The values are anonymized if they identify the user and its explained here https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-365-blog/privacy-changes-to-microsoft-365-usage-analytics/ba-p/2694137. To see them in your report, follow the process in the this thread - getEmailActivityUserDetail(date=xxxx) was working but now is returning wrong values in UserPrincipal Identity.

Or just follow this from the Admin Portal.
