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

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?
