Extract end users work location from Microsoft Places
Hi,
I've recently deployed the preview of Microsoft Places to a select few at our company and I love the easy overview which is exactly in line with what we need as we have about 50/50 split between "in office" and employees working remotely.
The only thing we're really missing is the possibility to expand the work location overview to also include the users custom status messages.
Seeing as that option is not available in the preview I'm just wondering if there's a plan to include it once it's officially released.
I've tried for way too many hours to figure out if there's any way of fetching all the users work location directly from Teams to the Graph API but to no avail. The only thing I've got working is to "SET" my own location but that doesn't help.
The status message itself is no problem extracting and showing it in a Power App.
Worst case scenario I simply have to build my own work location solution and for the users to "check in" in the Power App itself but I'd rather just use the integrated tools.
Attached pic to give an idea of what it looks like in it's default state with the "kontor/office" location.
Thanks in advance,
