New Edit forms have lookup field to Microsoft Entra ID dv table show Internal Server Error

I'm new to Power Pages.  I've created a page with a Form component.  I've added a New form for a dataverse table that has a lookup field to the Microsoft Entra ID table (formerly AAD).  In Power Automate the table Form works fine.  When adding the form to Power Pages, all goes well until I attempt to use the search action for the lookup field.  I've ensured I have a table permission to the MEID table with Read access and assigned it to both Administrators and Authenticated Users roles.
 
Is there another table permission for the Lookup Records modal?

    Hi Oliver,
     
      Thank you for responding to my post.  I'm wanting my input form to allow the user to select the name of anyone in my Azure Entra, not just those with power platform licenses.  If I review the User table, there are only 174 entries with a Job Title not null.  In the AADUser (Microsoft Entra ID) table there are more than 174 entries with the last name starting with 'A'.
      Why am I getting the 'Internal Server Error'?  Is it due to authentication/access to read a virtual table that is live querying Entra?

      Would I be better off having a daily flow that updates an 'Employee' table from Entra data?

    Do you want to lookup users within the back-end, is that it?
     
    The aad table contains users in your entire organisation, there is also another table called User (systemuser) that contains the users that have access to your back-end / Model-Driven Apps, so perhaps this is the one you might want?
