In some cases, external services need to use employees’ identities - especially profile pictures. There is probably no more central place than Entra ID to acquire profile pictures.

Example: We are setting up an external, premade solution that lacks out-of-the-box integration with identity providers. And along with metadata, we may also want to transfer profile pictures into our solution.
