Additional Information

For this functionality to work, we needed to use Azure Active Directory Administration connections because it provided access to Read the directory permissions.

Connections created in the User Directory Lookup settings page will not be accessible to workflow designers, and thus any write operations using that connection will not be accessible to workflow designs.
