In Power Apps, when retrieving a user's photo using the code below, there are no issues with existing users. However, if a user's account has been deleted, the FX Office365Users.PhotoMetadata function will return an error.

If(!IsBlank(ThisItem.员工邮箱),
If( Office365Users.UserPhotoMetadata(ThisItem.员工邮箱).HasPhoto=true,Office365Users.UserPhotoV2(ThisItem.员工邮箱),p),p)
 
Error message.
 
Office365Users.UserPhotoMetadata failed: {

"error": {

"code": "ErrorEntityNotFound",

"message": "Exception of type 'Microsoft.Fast.Profile.Core.Exception.EntityNotFoundFromCafeHintException' was thrown.",

"innerError": {
 
AI recommends using the FX below. However, this time, for users who have not set up a photo (their account exists), Power Apps displays an empty image. It should instead show the default photo labeled "P" as shown below. any alternative solution?
 
If(
    !IsBlank(ThisItem.员工邮箱),
    
    If(
        
        !IsBlank(
            Office365Users.UserPhotoV2(ThisItem.员工邮箱)
        ),
        Office365Users.UserPhotoV2(ThisItem.员工邮箱),
        p 
    p 
)

Hi @Henryzhou,

What about this one ?
If( !IsBlank(ThisItem.员工邮箱), If( IsError(Office365Users.UserPhotoMetadata(ThisItem.员工邮箱), p, Office365Users.UserPhotoMetadata(ThisItem.员工邮箱).HasPhoto, Office365Users.UserPhotoV2(ThisItem.员工邮箱), p ) )

Unfortunately I cannot test any of this presently.

@ Gabriel G. , Thank you for your assistance. To clarify, I mean that the user's Active Directory account has been deleted, not the list item. Therefore, when using Office365Users.UserPhotoMetadata to retrieve the user's photo, it will result in an error. The Person and Group type field still retains the user information, but Office365Users.UserPhotoMetadata will return an error message.

Hi there,

Deletion is a bit different from other events (Create, Update). On deletion, system only keep the entity reference on the process (id, name, delete from,...) You will have to move your operation before deletion process and keep your picture in your application cache. Otherwise, the only thing you can get is the name or id.

Simple alternative is to create a confirmation message for the user and get picture and values you need at this moment and keep them in variables. If user confirm deletion, you use your variables values. Otherwise, you flush values or they simply gonna get crush by the next deletion.

I hope it helps!
