Hi. @scottduthie Looking to solve same problem here. Did you manage to solve it? 
I would like tog get the email-address from OSUSER but I only use local Qlik accounts and have no external identity provider. In the user-section I can see the emails.

The value returned in the cloud from OSUser() is the user subject. 

I was able to solve the problem by loading the user list into my app. You can get the code to pull the list from the Access Evaluator monitor app. 

Then you can use this function to get the e-mail.

=Only({<UserSubject={"$(=SubField(OSUser(),'=',-1))"}>}UserEmail)

You can replace UserEmail with UserName or any other field brought back from the REST API
