That worked, for future references to anyone who might need it this is the code I did for the department and email:

var userEmail = "{{ user.emailaddress1 }}";

var userDepartment = "{{ user.department }}";

if (userEmail) {

console.log("User Email:", userEmail);

console.log("User Department:", userDepartment);

} else {

console.log("User is not signed in or the email is unavailable.");

}

You need to look for the logical schema name of the field in question (is always lower case) in Dataverse "Email" is its display name not its schema name. user.emailaddress1

Edit: note: the {{..}} is Liquid code and runs server side it is not a JavaScript element, you can load it into a JavaScript variable when the page loads

e.g. var userEmail = "{{ user.emailaddress1 }}";
