How to get Azure Active Directory User/Group Information

Hello everyone,

Is it possible to access information from Azure Active Directory (e.g. a users name, email address, group membership, job title etc.) via InfoPath?

I understand from Microsoft KB 2674193 (https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/kb/2674193) that in SharePoint Online, you can't access the UserProfileService due to loopback protection, and I'm also aware that you can obtain the username using the username() function, but what I'm hoping to achieve is to access more information about the user such as their email address and group membership, without having to manually duplicate the information to a SharePoint list.

If it's not possible to do this directly via InfoPath? Is it possible to automatically populate a SharePoint list with the information in Azure AD, because at least this way, I can receive the information into InfoPath.

Many thanks,
