Get singin email from Azure AD in a B2C custom policy - azure-ad-b2c

Question

In AAD B2C I have users created with 2 identities. I used graph to create them with this body :
{
"displayName": "John Doe",
"mail":"johndoe19287456#gmail.com",
"identities": [
{
"signInType": "userName",
"issuer": "mytenant.onmicrosoft.com",
"issuerAssignedId": "606198"
},
{
"signInType": "emailAddress",
"issuer": "mytenant.onmicrosoft.com",
"issuerAssignedId": "johndoe19287456#gmail.com"
}
],
"passwordProfile" : {
"password": "Soleil!23",
"forceChangePasswordNextSignIn": false
},
"passwordPolicies": "DisablePasswordExpiration"
}
This allow the user to connect either with an email (johndoe19287456#gmail.com) or an ID (606198).
When a user input his ID and then click on the "Forgot password?" link, I'd like to get the email value from AAD so the user cannot input whatever he wants. But I'd still like it to be "verified" by sending a code to that email address. I have 2 problems :
I can't fnd a way to get the email value from AzureActiveDirectoryProvider
I can't find a way to populate the Verified.Email field (and make it readonly).
Here's a sample of one of the many things I've tried yet.
Building blocks custom claims :
<ClaimType Id="ReadOnlyEmail">
<DisplayName>Verified Email Address</DisplayName>
<DataType>string</DataType>

</ClaimType>
<ClaimType Id="emailFromAAD">
<DisplayName>Email from AAD</DisplayName>
<DataType>string</DataType>
<UserHelpText />
<UserInputType>Readonly</UserInputType>
</ClaimType>
<ClaimType Id="readOnlySignInName">
<DisplayName>Sign in name</DisplayName>
<DataType>string</DataType>
<UserHelpText />
<UserInputType>Readonly</UserInputType>
</ClaimType>
<ClaimType Id="emailValue">
<DisplayName>Matched mail</DisplayName>
<DataType>string</DataType>
</ClaimType>
<ClaimType Id="isEmailBoolean">
<DisplayName>is Email</DisplayName>
<DataType>boolean</DataType>
</ClaimType>
<ClaimType Id="strongAuthenticationEmailAddress">
<DisplayName>string</DisplayName>
<DataType>string</DataType>
<AdminHelpText>Email address that the user can use for strong authentication.</AdminHelpText>
<UserHelpText>Email address to use for strong authentication.</UserHelpText>
<UserInputType>TextBox</UserInputType>
</ClaimType>

For now, I get the first screen with the readonly ID working.
The next screen presents the textboxes for email. The Email from AAD shouldn't visible.
But anyway it is empty, showing that it didn't get anything from AAD or I failed to properly store it in the claim bag or pass it down. Note that I have tried getting the value both from "strongAuthenticationEmailAddress" and "signInNames.emailAddress" based on Microsoft documentation but none of it works. Maybe it's in the way I define my output claim with PartnerClaimType in the AAD-UserReadUsingIdentifier profile?
To make it clear for everyone, here's what I'd like to have. A simple page with 2 reaonly fields with a button to send the code and then another one to continue after the code has been verified.
Can anyone help me with this one?
I started from the B2C custom policies starter pack and added customization from this community repo.
UPDATE
Here is what I get from MS Graph when querying for my user :
{
"#odata.context": "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/$metadata#users(identities,id,displayName,mail,surname,userPrincipalName,extension_06a19ccd80a0430c9730c62e4d96c895_ClientID,extension_06a19ccd80a0430c9730c62e4d96c895_requiresMigration)/$entity",
"id": "051e***************",
"displayName": "test - Tests2",
"mail": "johndoe19287456#gmail.com",
"surname": null,
"userPrincipalName": "051ea****************#mytenant.onmicrosoft.com",
"identities": [
{
"signInType": "emailAddress",
"issuer": "mytenant.onmicrosoft.com",
"issuerAssignedId": "johndoe19287456#gmail.com"
},
{
"signInType": "userName",
"issuer": "mytenant.onmicrosoft.com",
"issuerAssignedId": "606198"
},

Answer 1

You must provide the emailFromAAD as an input claim in LocalAccountDiscoveryUsingUserNameAndValidateStrongAuthenticationEmailAddress for it to be pre populated here.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory-b2c/self-asserted-technical-profile#input-claims
<InputClaims>
<InputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="readOnlySignInName" PartnerClaimType="signInNames" Required="true" />
<InputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="emailFromAAD" />
</InputClaims>
Now it will be prepopulated on this page.
If you want to force verification of this email, copy it into a read only claim using a claim transform, then do:
<OutputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="readOnlyEmailFromAAD" PartnerClaimType="Verified.Email" Required="true" />

Answer 2

I managed to get email address from AAD by following Jas Suri - MSFT advice with a few other things. So just to sum things up here's what I did. I modified the Validation TP AAD-UserReadUsingIdentifier by replacing the output claim emailFromAAD simply by signInNames.emailAddress (no more PartnerClaimType). In the LocalAccountDiscoveryUsingUserNameAndValidateStrongAuthenticationEmailAddress TP, I added the InputClaim emailFromAAD that I populate with a CopyClaim input claims transformation. I also cleaned up the first TP of the journey SelfAsserted-LocalAccountLookup-Combined-PwdReset :
<ClaimsTransformation Id="CopySignInEmailAddressToEmail" TransformationMethod="CopyClaim">
<InputClaims>
<InputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="signInNames.emailAddress" TransformationClaimType="inputClaim" />
</InputClaims>
<OutputClaims>
<OutputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="emailFromAAD" TransformationClaimType="outputClaim" />
</OutputClaims>
</ClaimsTransformation>
