I have a project in which I need to create custom fields, lets just say department and location, that will be automatically populated when a user is selected from a user picker field.  This info will be pulled from AD.

What's the best (and best should be taken to mean easiest to implement and maintain) plugin for the job?

Any way to do this on Cloud?

 

Update (8/13/21): Looks like Elements Connect is now available on Cloud
