Set Default value of people picker to value in list

Posted on by SG-09091339-0 35
Hello,
 
I have a simple PowerApps form where the end user will choose a ticket owner from a people picker using the Microsoft365 Users connector before submitting the ticket for processing. 
 
Another user would access this ticket from a separate app with a gallery where they can work the ticket.
 
On the 2nd app the ticket owner field is also a people picker where they are able to reassign if need be but I would like the default of the people picker to be the value the submitter chose when they entered the ticket which is the value in the SP list,  

I have found how to set the default to the current user but not pull from the current list value. 
 
Any ideas on how to do this?

    If you are using Form inside Power App you can set default/DefaultItems property of control by Parent.Default.

    Assuming the Combo Box is in a Form, you just need to refer to the field name in the Default (ThisItem.PersonFieldName)
