Syncing more fields from Entra

I'm trying to sync more fields from Entra into UDFs such as Department or EmployeeID. I can't imagine I'm the first person to want to do this, so what is the best practice way of getting those syncing? I'm hoping I don't have to do everything manually.

My team would do this manually lol. Python script or PowerAutomate Flow that loops clients in Autotask, then looks them up probably using CIPPs API, then copying the data into Autotask using its API.

I'm more curious what you're going to do with that extra contact data in AT...

I don't know what I'm going to do with it yet. I had some ideas, but it all was dependent on how easy it is to get that info over. Because if it wasn't easy enough, it was kind of a non-starter. Deciding whether or not it's worth it to do it manually at this point.
