How to get the original On-Prem AD account into Azure AD & SharePoint Online?
Hello We have OnPrem AD where our users accounts are i.e. Domain\ABC123 then, We got Azure AD, ADFS, and O365 where our users now use xxx@domain.com to connect and use SharePoint Online. ...

While the SamAccountName is synced to Azure AD, it's NOT exposed in any of the admin centers or other tools. You can only consume it via the Graph: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/e400c1c8-c803-4af1-8a90-0a1ff246f844/samaccountname-attribute-in-azure-ad?forum=WindowsAzureAD

Can’t see why the samaccount name is needed? The users UPN should be set and be the same in AD as in AAD

Hi Adam,
My On-Prem AD account is actually Domain\MaLa23264 and it work perfectly fine with our internal onPrem systems including our old SharePoint 2013 on-Prem farm.
In SharePoint Online, I use the UPN (Mary.Larson@Domain.com), So, They are not the same.
In specific SharePoint solution we are building, I really need to get the original On-Prem AD account which is Domain\MaLa23264 ... How?
